Sally Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 On 06/03/2023 at 03:09, John Mitchell said: My dashboard is telling me that, thanks to a rare Sunday high $$ sale, I've finally reached the $100K gross revenue milestone. I made my first submission (via CD) in mid-2007 and started making regular sales in 2008, so it has only taken me 15 years! Average price per image over the years is about $61, which is pretty good all things considered. Unfortunately, I've spent my share, but thanks very much, Alamy. Many congratulations! I’m not far off $50,000 and with several $$$ sales (both to US) as well as higher $$ sales (to EU) this month things are looking up. It seems that the pitifully low $ sales I get are to the U.K. (I’m opted out of all of the other distributor/novel use stuff). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Morrison Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 The end-of-month 'rush' usually means lots of small sales, so it was gratifying to see a mid-$$$ sale drop in today... 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avpics Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 With licences still dropping in I'm on course to at least match my best month ever, and for the second month running mostly amounting from stock images rather than live news. I've also just passed through $60,000 gross sales to date. Happy with that. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avpics Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 Thank you Allan. I'm not a big TV watcher so spending the evenings on images soon builds up a portfolio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Ventura Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 A couple infringement payouts came in today for low $$$. I am very happy to see Alamy chasing infringement uses and getting nice results. A better way to raise income for Alamy and the contributor and hopefully never see another decrease of commissions again. Infringement chasing is a win for everyone. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betty LaRue Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Licensed an image today for $125. Taken with my RX100-3. Love my tiny camera for interior stealth shooting. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Nelson Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 A direct $117 license showed up yesterday, and I found two more images used that have not been billed yet. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Waller Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 2 distributor sales reported today that netted me less than $10 in total, but the positive side of this is the gross revenue for 2023 to date now exceeds the gross revenue for the whole of 2022. I don't know what you have done or are doing Alamy but thanks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betty LaRue Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Out of 5 images licensed this month. Two were at $125 each & today one dropped in for $150. All direct. Very unusual but thank you, Alamy. Sure wish they were at the old 60% for me. Last month was pitiful. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avpics Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 May is saying to April "hold my beer" as it's so far reported twelve licences including some reasonable values contributing towards a figure already over a third of last month's total amount. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
