Reimar 289 Posted January 31 Well, how did January go after all that slow month business? Pretty slow for me. Only 11 sales for $485. I just got my best 3000 images set with 10 supertags each, so maybe things will step up now. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Ramsay 294 Posted January 31 22 sales for $705 gross - a good average month for me Alex 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gabbro 189 Posted January 31 17 sales for $904, including 2 resale of refund from December, probably my highest number of monthly sales ever. Only two are $$$ sales. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keith Douglas 364 Posted January 31 6 sales for $81 gross. Disappointing, particularly as 4 of them are single figure $ sales. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
funkyworm 1,046 Posted January 31 (edited) Higher end of average. Edit that... some night time activity from the US takes it to above average. Edited February 1 by funkyworm 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlbertSnapper 1,505 Posted January 31 11 for $382. Quite a few still unreported/refunded (when still used)/wrong licence details etc. to chase up. Time consuming to sort out. And annoying. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David Davies 66 Posted January 31 I had 4 sales for $426, things seem to be improving! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cryptoprocta 529 Posted January 31 Very strange month for me. 6 sales by the 15th, gross $$ more than in each of 11 months of 2017 - then absolutely nada for the past two weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick Hatton 49 Posted January 31 Just the one sale on the last day of the month for $64 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gvallee 1,857 Posted January 31 17 sales for $516. Only one $$$. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bryan 9,587 Posted January 31 (edited) 14 new sales for a gross $517, highest $150 (USA). 18 deals in total, including 2 refunds and resales for lower amounts giving a grand (but illusory) total of $636. Worryingly two sets of duplicate sales within the 14, so maybe further refunds on the way. Zooms doubled over the month to somewhere near average. After a dreadful start to the month, things did pick up...... Edited January 31 by Bryan 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Mitchell 2,471 Posted February 1 Good start to the year volume-wise with lucky 13 sales, but not so good for revenue (only $262 gross) due to low -- and very low -- prices. Sold my first RF image ever on Alamy in January, which I guess is something of a milestone. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abiyoyo 464 Posted February 1 Bad month with just two sales for $52. There are two unreported sales from newspapers that should come out soon. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
losdemas 1,774 Posted February 1 (edited) 3 for $114. Another for around $50 was refunded the day after it was reported (appears a genuine mistaken purchase as it was a similar to a previous sale in November under the same licensing terms). All sales were made in the first 15 days, then nothing. Plenty of zooms and one known unreported sale from December. Concerning to me are incorrect licensing usages (PU/presentations), and the time taken to resolve these when the culprits are found and reported. EDIT: will be interesting to see what license terms are settled when these cases are resolved. Edited February 1 by losdemas 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sultanpepa 670 Posted February 1 A very slow first 20 days then things started to move. I ended up with 10 sales for $175. Not great but it gets me off the mark. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Ventura 3,039 Posted February 1 January had a strong start for me and then by mid month the faucet stopped working. 9 sales (3 for $100+) for gross of $710. So I ended up with a below average month to start the year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
njene 105 Posted February 1 January was a complete bust for me No sales, zooms were average 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fotoDogue 564 Posted February 1 Sometime in the time when it's January in New York, and February in London, my sixth sale of this year dropped in. It's a little hard to find in My Alamy but it's there. That makes it 6 for $240. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lisa 8,922 Posted February 1 (edited) 3 for $128. Edit: Stopped uploading to Alamy stock in 2016. I am now only submitting iPhone photos. Edited February 1 by Lisa 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReeRay 271 Posted February 1 Average month. Zooms down but volume and sales holding up. I'm remaining positive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vpics 548 Posted February 1 Average month - looking back at January 2017, it's 100% up from then. Zooms up. Average sale $36. Big refund at the end of the month for a December sale that had just cleared, which means, I'm not too pleased. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CandyAppleRed Images 98 Posted February 1 Decent start to the year though zooms and views seem down. 5 for $250, best in $ terms for 2 years and 6th best month ever. Ranged from the sublime ($197) to the ridiculous in a distributor sale that didn't take my then total past $200. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colblimp 764 Posted February 1 3 for $163, with one for $100. Happy enough, although obviously I'd have liked more. It bodes well for the rest of the year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andremichel 133 Posted February 1 (edited) Number of sales good at 20, but sales amounts low with nothing over $70, giving a total of $489 gross. It is even worse translating back to GBP now that the exchange rate has recovered back up to $1-42 per £1. I know its only one month, but given my images on Alamy have increased from 6000 to 9800 since last January 2017, I was hoping for better.
