Title: Footage Stockers. To be exclusive, or not to be exclusive: that is the question
Post by: wnpt on September 30, 2018, 09:51

Greetings to all :D
To those of you who are Exclusive Video contributors, which agency are you working with? Do you still ok with your situation and remain exclusive
or do you consider to quit the exclusivity.
To those of you who are Non-Exclusive, have you thought of being exclusive to gain more commission?

Would love to hear your point of view and advises.
Have read some threads, but they're cold.

Thanks!!

Hey mate!

It's a great question. But I'm afraid no one can tell what's the smarter choice. Some people will tell you to go with exclusivity. Others will say go non-exclusive. But no one can really do a comparison because obviously you can't try both and compare the data. And let's say we did compare two contributors with same size portfolio (a non-exclusive and an exclusive) - the quality of their portfolio would be different so it would still be impossible to compare.

So I don't think you'll be able to find anyone who can tell what's better.

Very best,
Jacob
