Reimar Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 February is gone. So is winter in Toronto, apparently. Decent number of sales this month (17), but oh my goodness, very low amounts (down to $3.52 gross) for a total of $345. Minus a refund of $115 from back in December. Argghh!

John Mitchell Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 It's not quite over here in Lotus Land, but I saw considerably better prices this month than in January, which was a bit of an "Arghhh!" month for me revenue-wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I've seen very few "Canada" sales on Alamy over the years. Very little local placement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I see here. Very for Alberta unless it's a guide or something. Oddly enough, got some hits on Drumheller. Time to work on the dinosaurs.

Sorry to change the subject, Reimar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimar Posted February 28, 2018 Author Share Posted February 28, 2018 Well, you were right John - it wasn't quite over. Very unusually, another $20 sale popped in this afternoon. So 18 for $365. Still not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mitchell Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Well, looks like it really is over now (February, that is, not winter in Vancouver), and I've ended up with 10 sales for $472 gross, which is average-ish for me. Better prices than January overall, highest $100. Also, healthy month for both zooms and CTR, so things promise to keep ticking along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Numbers down but income boosted by one $820 sale. 8 for $934. So below average no. sales but above average income. Zooms healthy at around 2 per day. Worryingly low fees for what appear to be hard copy newspaper usage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Ventura Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 So is this the "How was your (insert month)?" thread? February was a little better than average with help from a nice surge today! 19 sales for $918, 3 of them were $100+. Given how things have been, I am happy.

losdemas Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 After a good start with a reasonable sale at the beginning of the month, there was no 'serge' for me! Still, some renewed enthusiasm has been rewarded with record views and zooms for the month, so feeling somewhat positive. Final result : 1 for >$50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niels Quist Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Disappointing 6 sales for $305. Video sales elsewhere more than compensated, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Richmond Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Best month for revenue since I started with Alamy. 27 sales for $729 gross. One $$$ to start the month and a couple of other decent prices kept the average up. Good crop of zooms though below my previous bests. The November re-rank has certainly helped me.

Phil Preston Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 7 sales for $189 gross, but four sales were distributors, including one from Croatia which for me are usually very low fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andremichel Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Revenue is pretty grim showing a large collapse compared to Feb 2017, even though I now have nearly 4000 extra images online (produced at significant cost).
