I'm listening and we are growing at Cutcaster with everyones help.  If you guys have advice for me please let me know. 

@graficallyminded If you have any questions you can shoot me an email on the site.  I am more than happy to help out.  John

Got my first sale today  No bids though just a image licensed
Hope more will come !

congrats all who are getting their payouts. this should keep John Griffin out of trouble , as he'll be too busy sending you ppl money. 
The only time I got close to a sale was around the time I first joined John's co , and was offered $5 for my image entitled "Bird of fire". But I declined as I withdrew the image for some future exhibition here with a photo-co-op in this lovely city of Halifax.
Still ,no regrets (yet), as I still submit images to Cutcaster whenever I can.
I am rooting for John to succeed selling some images for all of us in 2009.
I sure like to buy him a pint of Guinness. So John, what are you waiting for? 

I don't honestly grab how it works. Looks cumbersome to me. Do you really have to log in twice per day to check your "deals"? What if you log in just now and then? Designers are impatient and want the image now. Can't sales just be automatic?

No need to login.  I was notified immediately by email when a bid was posted.  I suppose it could be a problem if you aren't near your computer or a blackberry? 

 

I checked.. no offers yet. 

i suppose that's one way to grab a sale. you should suggest this to John Griffin. like maybe a checkbox, accept reasonable bids, or something like that. usually the bid is for 5 dollars, which isn't bad compared to other sites.

I've been uploading like a banshee - 1800 live so far, but no bids or sales just yet.  It's only been a couple of weeks, though.  I'm sure we'll all be seeing some action soon enough.

Congrats!

Congrats oboy, well done

Update: just checked my email used for CC and discovered I had 3 automated sales too this month. Have to add I only started uploading during the New Year recess. I also should add those shots didn't sell anywhere else and that they are totally atypical for me, a food shot, go figure. The percentage of 40% turns off a bit but hopefully they can make up by volume...

John apparently digged into a new customer base. Whatever, keep the sales coming. Better 40% of many than 70% of nothing.

Business is booming ... images are selling everywhere.  Just had two more at Cutcaster and an EL at DT.  This is starting to feel like a JOB.   



Plus a portrait of the rider. 

Thanks, John, for leaving the door open long enough for my foot to get in.   

Thanks for the encouragement.  I too hope the site grows and drags us "mice" along with it.  I believe there are several "big cats" on board.  Isn't that how the buyers are attracted to new sites?
