How was your June?

[Cryptoprocta 758]

I see that some of this is being reported in the 'slow month' thread, but I think it deserves its own thread.

So I'll start.

I only just noticed that May was my lowest month for $$, for at least twelve months - but April was the highest!

June has perked up again, 10 sales, c$120 net.

Means that not counting last years' catch up of 22 back sales, I'm just over half last year's earnings, with fewer sales, over the first six months.

I've resumed uploading at a 'reasonable' (?!) level over the last seven months; the sales were: 5xB, 1xC, 1XD, 2xF, 1xJ. It's surely a waiting game, but 2 of the Bs and the C were upgrades of previous sales. Thanks to the honest buyer.

10 sales - $398 - luckily only one distributor sale.

 

1xB - 3xC -  2xD - 3xE - 1xF

[Colblimp 1,868]

After a blank May, 5 sales for $223 was my June, including 1 today for $115.

 

1xF, 2xH, 1xK, 1xM.

[Robert Convery 165]

A poor month with 15 sales for $196 gross.

General idiocy.

[Sally 1,495]

10 sales for $261. I’m happy with that. Only one distributor. Second highest month for both number of sales and revenue after April. May was abysmal.

1x H

3x J

1x K

4x M

Worst month for a long time with just the one sale at the worst price I've ever had - my share won't even buy me a coffee! Even a PU would have paid more. And the use?

That's unfortunate, the only remotely similar licence I can find this year was $30 for less usage.

I take it to mean it's a quarterly magazine, already published or about to be, and a 5-year licence for web.

That makes sense, thanks!

This sale landed this morning. Licence is for a UK national newspaper print run up to 2 million copies. I don’t know which newspaper so if you spot it please let me know. It’s not appearing on Google search so I suspect its one of the paywall papers - Times, Telegraph?

14 for $818, including 4 $$$ and a bunch of $ distributor sales. 

Half way through 2018, number of sales up, total $ short of 2017, and 2016. $/sale way down.

[Michael Ventura 5,038]

June was a pretty average month for me.  16 sales (assuming nothing pops in today) for $1039.  The only thing odd was that 9 of the 16 sales were A series images!  I seem to be on track to match last year's number in both sales and revenue.  I keep uploaded but not getting much upward traction!

[Lisa 9,548]

5 sales, highest $89

UK weather. Page 4 in The Times, page 2 in the daily Express and front page in the ??? Lets wait and see.

In my back garden.

2 sales for $82 gross.

UK weather. "Its Spring and the grass needs cutting". Used twice for $198 and again in my back garden. So there is no reason to travel far to get saleable images.
