Title: How's the sales growth at Dissolve since like 2 years ago?
Post by: helloitsme on August 01, 2017, 21:38
If anybody is still with Dissolve?  I quit Dissolve and chose VideoBlocks.  My VideoBlocks sales on average these days are about 1/4 to 1/3 of Pond5 sales.  For the last 2 years, I think my VB sales grew about 50% on average.

OK, everybody left Dissolve already like me.  That's a good thing.  Not a good place for contributors.

Sales constantly dropping... no matter how much footage you upload. In July there were only 4 sales. Thinking about dropping too.

I dumped Dissolve a couple of years ago and went with Videoblocks.

No regrets.

The moment they started prohibiting contributors to use certain competitors is the moment they lost their business.

You need to be the strongest player in the market by far for that decision to be anything but crazy.

They were unbelievably arrogant when they came on the scene. Which tells you they lack people skills. And this will also backfire with customers, if you donīt know how to interact with suppliers, you are not going to understand the market or the customers.

Either you know how to work with people and maintain your reputation or you donīt.

I agree.  Just a bunch of arrogant *insult removed* at their management level.
