What a year 2009 was! With the Aughts (00s) drifting out of our memories and 2010 taking shape before us, we wanted to thank you for your continuous support and give you a glimpse of what to expect in the next 52 weeks.

2010 represents the year of the Photo Buyer and our New Years resolution is to educate more buyers about the benefits of using Cutcaster and sell more photos and illustrations for all our contributors. I know you are not supposed to say your New Years resolution out loud because its twice as onerous a duty but we know the hard work before us is to prove we can find the buyers and provide them with the amazing content they are looking for.

In the New Year, expect us to introduce new tools, sign partnerships to expand our distribution and upload more great content to augment our existing marketplace. We will focus a majority of our time on the following:

    * Increasing photo buying activity on the site
    * Making the checkout area easier to use for bulk buying
    * Tweaking the search algorithm and re-weighting the results so its more diverse and relevant
    * Making more direct sales calls
    * Attending more buyer conferences
    * Introducing some Cutcaster APIs
    * Promoting more exclusive photos and illustrations on Cutcaster
    * Enhancing the clipfolders so they are easier to use and checkout with
    * Spending as much on advertising in both print and online as we can afford

How you can optimize Cutcaster for your business

    * Spread the word through our photo buyer and seller referral program
    * Link back to
www.cutcaster.com from your personal site
    * Keep up the enthusiasm, and continue to be a part of something special from the ground up.  Rome wasnt built in a day and we are on the path towards success.

Thanks you so much for your continued support, and as always you can contact us if you need any questions answered or assistance.

We raise our collective glasses to you, our valued Cutcaster member, and wish you all the success and happiness in 2010.

John

hey John, happy new year to you ! as always , it's good to see you here , at times.

I can't say 2009 has been good for you at Cut, but then again, I haven't been with you long enough either.  But yes, I do wish that you every success in increasing  your buyers market , so you won't leave us as quickly as Zymmetrical.
We do need more sites like yours that offers more money to our images, but in order to keep us contributing, we need some dls.
 That being said, we will stay with Cut for another year, and look forward to some results.  Chins up, and toast to a big change this year... for the best!

I sold a few in 2009 and have already had my first sale of 2010.  Lets hope we can see sales increase in 2010, I admire the effort John is putting in and it is an easy task to upload my portfolio to help give CC a chance of making it.  I just hope more people upload their portfolios and give John enough time to get the sales going.
