wiskerke 3,387 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Sales down -2.4% from 330 to 322. That's not very dramatic. However gross revenue down -19.6% from 14680 to 11802. Ouch! (Best year to date 2016 was 351 for 16798) Main reason: not adding enough new work due to all sorts of reasons. wim 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Sally 1,684 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 2018: 123 sales for $5,488 (gross) 2019: 223 for $7,046 (gross) So nearly twice as many sales but less than 50% more revenue 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Marvin McAbee 56 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 12 for $546 but best sales number since 2008. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Gina Kelly 183 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Best year for volume, and second best year for revenue (only 2017 was better and that's because I had a $$$$ sale that year). 😊 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Bill Allsopp 115 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Sales down 5% in number but up over 10% in value. Bit disappointing given all the images I have added but a few lessons learnt from looking at others results. Onwards ever onwards. A happy and prosperous new year to all. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
KevinS 143 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Volume down by 12%, revenue up 20%. Revenue skewed by a $$$ book cover. Have a great 2020! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Ramsay 594 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 279 sales for $9206 gross - compared to 2018, sales up very slightly and revenue very slightly down. Alex 2 Link to post Share on other sites
John Mitchell 4,818 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) Best year ever for sales (172) and third best for gross revenue ($8.2K) after 2014 and 2012. In short, it was a surprisingly good year for me. Who knows what 2020 will bring... Edited January 2, 2020 by John Mitchell 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites

VbFolly 746 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 After 4 years, my sales are still going upwards, and more than doubled sales volume this year, but just barely doubled revenue. Just one $$$ sale (not in Live News): 2019 - 123 sales for $2411 2018 - 50 sales for $1181 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Broad Norfolk 202 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 My best year yet on Alamy. Quite pleased with the revenue side helped by some $$$ sales. 2019 - 53 sales for $1976 gross 2018 - 41 sales for $ 743 gross Link to post Share on other sites
Bionic 121 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 This has been my first year contributing to Alamy (I signed up a couple of years ago but never got around to doing anything about it until March/April this year). I made one sale at the end of June and then got a little despondent after that due to a lack of any further sales or even zooms. Since mid August, however, my zooms, and corresponding CTR have been steadily improving so I'm quite pleased and now fairly optimistic looking ahead to next (this?) year 1 Link to post Share on other sites
John Gaffen 101 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Third best year by total revenue and best year, for number of images sold. Link to post Share on other sites

aphperspective 443 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Volume double last year doubled my port (still not huge) but revenue the same almost to the $. Onwards.😐 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Phil Robinson 1,174 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) Number of sales up a little under 10% (though images on file increased by more) Actual income down fractionally, due to the reduction to 40% for non-exclusive - gross sales also up 10%. I expect next (sorry this) year to go up again. Edited January 2, 2020 by Phil Robinson Link to post Share on other sites
gvallee 3,413 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Disappointing year. I added 1,500 images. Volume -13% Revenue -17% 2018 was my best year ever both in terms of licenses and revenue. Link to post Share on other sites
Sultanpepa 994 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 With 2 sales less than last year 2019 was my second highest for licences but my fourth highest year for remuneration despite added images year on year. So 128 sales for the year a 14.5% drop in revenue, and a loss of news feed makes 2019 not one to look back on, and if I'm being honest 2020 isn't one I'm looking forward to either. Bah humbug!

CandyAppleRed Images 132 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Two behind last year and one behind 2017 but still just a fraction over one per week. Last year average was $12.69, this year $11.33 so not bad given the 50/50 split. Still way behind $38 average in 2011 and 2013 though. Link to post Share on other sites
geogphotos 2,956 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 More images Fewer sales Less income Link to post Share on other sites
shearwater 1,503 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 2019 vs 2018: Port: increased in 50%. All RM and exclusive. Views: +44% Zooms: +35% Licenses: 8 (equal to 2018). Although still waiting for three more detected sales of 2019 that should have already appeared in my account. That would increase licenses in +38% Sales (gross): -27% Medium license price (gross): -27% Sales (net): -7% Medium license price (net): -7% Earnings / per number of images / per year: -38% 1 Link to post Share on other sites
