Lucky Oliver sideshow experience / strategy thread

[leaf]

A success story for you all

Allright well it seems to have worked for one of my images.

I had one of my images in the sideshow for 5 credits.  Yestderday it was purchased with an extended license which means $125 for me.    I have had 8 sales at Alamy - this is more $$ than I have gotten for all but one of them.  I realize it was no doubt a 'fluke' or a one-off, but it doesn't feel like the Alamy sales are any better (in being a fluke)

so now the conversation - how much do you price your side show images for?  which images do you put in the side show?

Well done leaf - $125 for a sale is good money.

That is amazing, I'm very happy for you.   Please share the photo with us!

That's good news - glad you're $125 richer!

At the rate I am going (if I understand this correctly) I will qualify for the Sideshow in about the 2057.

Something to look forward to, I guess.

Congrats....i am not sure about pricing at this point...i and many like me have yet to hit 100 downloads....  so no slideshow for us

No free slideshow.  You will still be able to use the tokens earned in the early days - if you were there, of course.

yeah they are sold like regular images, except you say what price you want to sell them at.  I said a price of 5.  so for web images i recieve 5 credits/$ and extended license is 250 credits.  with extended licenses you get 50% of the sale price
