Title: iStock : Decline in Subscriptions and Credit Pack Income in July, June ?
Post by: shannonfagan on August 23, 2018, 12:53

Who has seen a significant decline in iStock income from specifically subscription sales and credit pack sales in July, June, and May 2018?

Was there a strategic re-alignment of this portion of iStockphoto's business?

I'm specifically directing this question to iStock exclusives; but non-exclusives please also respond if you have seen a noticeable decline in these two sales areas.

My credit pack sales in July was highest in ESP, and my subs sales were average.
However, all types of sale vary widely, and not in proportion with total sales, I can't work out any strategy looking at my sales pattern.
Are you sure Getty have any sort of long or even medium-term strategy? They don't have a history of it, more like: "throw it at the wall and see if anything happens to stick" rinse and try something else ... and so on.
