Title: Anyone notice sales picking up??
Post by: donding on April 28, 2009, 15:09: Any one notice their sales picking up in the last week, week and a half or is it just me? Mainly on Dreamstime, Shutterstock, iStock and Big Stock....and somewhat on StockXpert.

It's getting better.

But poor sales are to be expected the first couple of weeks of the year, in my experience anyway. Give it time.

I'm not sure you can compare today's sales to those SEVEN YEARS AGO, lol.

Post by: KB on January 15, 2016, 15:19: I've had 6 sales on iStock (exclusive) so far this year, compared with 33 over the same period last year (and that was a significant decline from previous years).

So, no.

Seven years are nothing comparing to millions of years past since the big bang that created the universe.
