Title: do subs escalate into better bigger sales? for you?
Post by: hali on January 06, 2009, 09:19

it's not big news to anyone here how most of us feel about subs.
but lately, i've been getting a couple of bucks, here and there.
for a while it was mostly subs.

i am wondering if these "bigger" sales are from the same buyers who bought my subs? do you think so?
what is your thought on this from your own experience?

Why would they buy your images using credits if they already have a subscription?  i think that the longer you sell at a place the more customers get to know your portfolio instead of just the subscription customers that tend to browse the new images so gradually you have more credit sales.

fotographer is right, hali. It's not that your subs are escalating into sales, it's just that as  your downloads increase, your work is checked out more. Therefore, buyers are beginning to notice , and in turn, it results in them selecting your images. All the better for you  ;)
