Stephen D Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Is it just me, or are Alamy sales this month unusually poor? My March sales are only about half the average number and a third the average value (the average based on my sales over the last 12 months). Can Alamy sales be affected by the international geo-political situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve F Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 I'm on normal sales and fee average this month, I haven't seen any effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celluloid Hero Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Dramatic increase in number of sales, dramatic decrease in net amount payable to me. Now, I wonder why that could be!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris warren Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Low prices, plus a large number of refunds which has nearly wiped them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will continue highlighting the communication and decisional issues Yes, mainly because i still think Alamy can be a partner if they still want to be. Still no reply on the request for clarification on the infringement process 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReeRay Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Compared to last year which was average this March is up 300% in both sales and revenue. Still averaging above Alamy level per sale. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sooth Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 an unusual high number of sales this month, and most are not culturetrip. ctr took a steep dive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said looking at last 6 month of zoom, only 2 have actually resulted in licences, interestingly both to the aforementioned CT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabbro Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Piss poor month so far. But my total CTR has been over 1.0 for the last three months in a row. So, no correlation with sales as far as I can see. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Lewis Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 I'm down 50% year over year so far. Revenue is obviously down as well. I'm usually very strong in the Spring but not so this year, so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antonsrkn Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Yep, also having an abysmal month. 2nd lowest gross revenue so far in the past year and ironically 2nd highest number of sales for me (n=11). Doesn't help morale that of 11 sales, 10 of them were via distributer including 6 for micro prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marianne Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 A couple decent high $$ sales, beats the multiple piddlers in the past couple of months. Well behind last year at this time, but Alamy is always up and down for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
