John Richmond Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 500th sale dropped in earlier today - just over four years since my first on 27 June 2014. Looking forward to the 1000th.

JamesH Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Just had 4 sales drop in, I've never had more than one a day, my average is 1 or 2 per month, quite happy with it. A couple of $, and two $$. After a dire June things are picking up I hope. I started in February last year and am now up to 31 sales since with nearly 4000 images uploaded. 1 refund that annoyed me, another for $$$ that I had the foresight to buy the newspaper as evidence, as a month later it got refunded, I then emailed Alamy the proof and actually ended up 50% better off from it, so there is karma in the world. I still find the Alamy style of shooting hard work but I do enjoy it, I used to go out of my way to not have people in my photos, now I'm getting better to include them, so many missed opportunities over the years. As a side question, how often do sales get reported in the dashboard, is it only once per day? I've noticed sales only seem to show around midnight (BST).

Yes, the dashboard is updated once a day but if you download the sales report, it shows sales reporting as they are entered by Alamy in the database, so as many times as you had a sale in a given day.

Stokie Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 I was just bemoaning the fact I hadn't had any sales in August yet (average 14 per month) when 2 dropped in - 1 for $100 and the other for $119!!!! John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perry Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Since january things went south for me. Very few zooms. But today 2 --> $$$ sales dropped in covering a few months of my average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avpics Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Five sales so far this month. Mid to low values, but it's rewarding to see them begin to tick over regularly again as they had done in the past. When also including the later weeks of July - 18 sales from 20 July to current - it makes you feel you're doing something right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betty LaRue Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Only 2 so far. But one for a nice $$, another for a very healthy $$$. Total not far from the total of last month, (11 I think?) which number of licenses were my best month ever. Betty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betty LaRue Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Yes, I do make a few sales of them. But times are tough these days. I was spoiled because the first time I shot some, I sold one within a week or so of uploading it. Thought I’d hit the gold mine, but after all, it was just luck. I waited...and waited...and found somebody had blasted the mine tunnel 90% closed. But I keep shooting and get the occasional. Betty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Ten sales so far this month (9 stock and 1 IPhone App) and today’s sold for $150. Total sales just surpassed $16,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
