Return on investment

[Rodger Shagam at africanpix]

I don't sell much on Alamy as I only recently have started uploading more to this library

BUT

today I saw that a Rights Managed aerial image of mine was sold for $0.19!

I reckon my cost to achieve and upload this pic was about $200, time, transport, amortising cost of equipment etc etc

And these are the Terms of the sale:

Country: Worldwide
Usage: Editorial, Website and Social media, any size, single placement and design, worldwide, in perpetuity
Media: Website, app and social media
Print run: Unlimited
Placement: Any - print inside, electronic, online
Image Size: Any size
Start: 17 June 2022
Duration: In perpetuity

 

Phew! Next stage, Alamy will ask photographers to make a donation to the client's promotional expenses ...

 

So, what's the answer?

 

Cheers
