Title: Impact of putting higher price on exclusive photos at Fotolia
Post by: rene on March 10, 2009, 00:24

For me there is no more reason to have exclusives photos at Fotolia (earning are the same). So before stop  selling my exclusives files only at FT I'll test the impact of increasing credit's price to max. If they still sell good I'll continue with FT, otherwise I'll upload my exclusives images to all sites.

Selling exclusive at any agency would require a lot of confidence in that agency. Fotolia, at least to me, seems a rather dubious choice for this. They have at least a part time person spending his time figuring out how to lessen payments to photographers. In the case of Fotolia I have to think hard whether to pull my portfolio or not, never mind think exclusivity.

How to you make an image no longer exclusive to Fotolia? 

I only have a few, but don't see the point in leaving them exclusive any longer there...

Lisa, find the file, hit "edit data" and there is a box "choose your contract" above setting the price, first option button is exlusive to ft

LOL  :D

I really did have my best month ever last month and I'm on a trend to beat it this month assuming sales continue as is.  I don't think Chad or Oleg post here so it looks like at least a couple others are making some $ out there.

Have a good one,

Mat
