BobPhoto 5 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 While Alamy was always a low earner for me with less than 5% of my stock sales last year, I have already exceeded my total of 2017 in 2018 with quite a few nice over 100 USD licence, all sold as RF. Happy. Link to post Share on other sites

gvallee 3,256 Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Beaten my record ever of gross sales today. 2 sales short of BME but one more day to go. I don't think I'll beat or equal that record somehow but you never know. Happy. Gen Link to post Share on other sites

Alex Ramsay 580 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 $225 for a US magazine cover, which is nice - but 38.5% to Alamy and 23% affiliate commission (whatever that is) makes a big hole in it. Still, positive news, I guess Alex 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure I should post this in the "positive news" thread, but I'm having a strange month. 11 sales so far: x2 PU, x1 Presentation, x7 distributors, ONE single direct sale! No regret to be in these schemes... Gen Link to post Share on other sites
