Foreign Export Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 (edited) Well already May in Sydney- not sure where this year has gone 18 sales for me for just over $1000 Fairly consistent with other months so far in 2021 Martin Edited April 30, 2021 by Foreign Export 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbimages Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 I'm a few hundred K's up the coast from you, so also May here. As far as April - it was my worst month for many years. Just one sale $17.98 on 1 April, then zilch, zip, nada. CTR was over 2 earlier in the month, then zooms totally stopped, leaving me with a total CTR of just 0.87. I've fallen off that proverbial cliff!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Ventura Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 April was a bit of an odd month. Most sales came in the first two weeks and usually it is the other way around. 18 sales for $683 gross (one over $$$). This includes the one PU sale that my daughter bought of mine....more as a joke. Also had a $270 refund from a sale from last year....that stung a bit. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gvallee Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I'm even further north (Cairns) than you two Aussies, so May as well. April was my best month ever in terms of number of licenses. 28 for $577 (10 presentations) 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mitchell Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Below average month for me with 10 sales for $424 gross. In the batch were two $$$ licenses (one direct and one distributor), which helped improve my mood somewhat. Otherwise, a curious mix of subjects, including three images from my tiny archival/historical collection. Zooms mediocre. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losdemas Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Quite a decent month. 7 for 227. A mixture of marketing, UK news and (only one) presentation. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay D Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Best month so far, 2 sales for what in the great scheme of things is only a small portfolio although amazing the time and effort required.... if only they knew eh... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassius Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Nice month. 14 sales, 1,300$ 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlbertSnapper Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 5 for $104 gross. Not great, but better than a slap in the face with a wet kipper. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VbFolly Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 18 for $192.50 gross. Plenty of sales eventually, though none until the 12th April, then a string of disappointingly low price licences came in. Best was a calendar for $39. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David eastley Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 my month seems to follow the same pattern as most of those that have already commented. Reasonable sales volume ( 18) but prices down a bit, but overall after 4 months heading for a record year. The lower prices does seem to be compensated by higher volumes. Another factor is that with covid reducing, and travel starting to open again there seems to be an increase in both searches and sales for travel images , something I have a lot of. So I am still smiling at the moment 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Rooney Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I had my average month, a few more sales than the thought-of-normal, one sale a month per 1,000 images in your port. No $$$. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abiyoyo Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) Good month, best ever in sales and one of the best in revenue. 32 and $815. It could be that next month I will reach my 2020 gross revenue, my best year so far. Edited May 1, 2021 by Abiyoyo 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve F Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 9 sales for $84 gross. More sales, but much lower fees than previous months this year. Swings and roundabouts, guess it all balances out over the year! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aphperspective Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Zooms well down, CTR well down 3 for $57 but got my first Covid jab. Far more important thing to be concerned about than image sales. Well done those who had a great month. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Richmond Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 A bit below average. 19 sales for $459 gross / $214 nett. Zooms holding up well but won't know the final figures till Monday. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vpics Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Sales volume has been steady for a couple of months now and revenue has gone up since November last year. Average just over $32. Highest sale was $103.28, lowest $1.29 (before commission). My zooms have tanked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
