John Mitchell Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I hesitate to start another of these "please help make me feel better" threads, but I'm wondering if it's just me. Usually I have around five sales by mid-month. However, I currently have only one distributor sale (a very good one, fortunately) showing for February even though views, zooms and CTR all appear to be average.

tarsierspectral Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I got 2, I would consider this a slow month for me so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abiyoyo Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I have got 4 sales so far, but 0 zooms were last month at this period I had 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

February has been a little slow but have had a couple of nice value sales that almost make up for it. Let's hope for a flurry of sales in the second half of the month!

gvallee Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 My feeling too. Zooms have also dipped sharply. Let's hope the second half of the month improves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nacke Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Licenses are normal in numbers or a bit better, but the fees are more than double what they have been for the last couple of years, let's hope this is the up way the business is going.

Phil Robinson Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 A very encouraging first week, though it's slowed a little since then. Healthier numbers too - nothing embarrassingly small (yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betty LaRue Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Four in the first 9 days, nothing since. Zooms are near my all-time high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimar Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 You bet it's slow. Both views and zooms are way down. My CTR for the month is 0.19. I've never seen anything that low. One sale where I would normally have about 7 by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sultanpepa Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Better month than last with 4 so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Woods Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 About average for me, with 15 so far including a $250 which is most welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReeRay Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Views are through the ceiling, zooms in the basement and sales pushing up the daisies. a.k.a. Things could be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 After a bumper December and a very good January, it's a case of tea break over and back on your heads for February. Average to below average, half way through and four sales, although one bright spark at $190. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dov makabaw Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 After a very good January sales and zooms have plummeted, particularly after moving to the new Image Manager system. I cannot remember when my CTR last dipped this low. dov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niels Quist Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 So far 3 sales (on the low side) - 21 zooms (on the low side) - CTR average, but would of course like to reach my best again - I don't count views but very high. From what I see the US prices to most often US photographers) seem to be higher than in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broad Norfolk Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Just 4 sales earlier in the month but this is better than February last year. Views holding up but zooms still low driving down CTR. Jim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokie Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 8 sales (with 1 popping in this morning from yesterday) and 1 for $105 on the 1st - so not too bad. Views and zooms average. John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perry Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Only 2 sales. Zooms low, but views are way up what brings down my CTR considerably. Perry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Richmond Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Already better than January. 5 sales to date, 17 zooms and only half way through the month, as opposed to 4 sales and 16 zooms for the whole of January. Can't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarsierspectral Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 It seems like there is a pattern, those who did well in January are not doing well in February and vice versa, is there anyone who had a very good January and is also doing very good or better in February?
