Title: January 2020 Earnings Report
Post by: Brasilnut on January 31, 2020, 14:45

Dear stock colleagues,

Happy to share with you my January 2020 earnings report:

https://brutallyhonestmicrostock.com/2020/01/31/jan-2020-brutally-honest-earnings-report/

Standout results at (surprisingly) iStock and Adobe Stock but disappointment at Alamy and Pond5.

All the best,

Brasilnut

I hear you but I don't think this applies to me since I only have 148 (commercial) clips at iStock vs 1,269 (commercial + editorial) clips on Pond5

Do you maybe have a clue as to how Eyeem sales report works? Do they report it some days after iStock/Getty reports, or they report in realtime or something else?
I can't seem to understand it, seems totally random, I received reported sales like two weeks ago and today again.

A sterling month for me at SS with the best sales in more than than one year.

Really peeving though is an example of what I would call 'blown pallindrome syndrome'.......missed by one friggin' cent  ;D

^^ I don't even understand that figure, with the placement of the dot and comma.

Not Anglo-Saxon notation. Funny, never occurred to me before as I've lived in NL for 40+ years. I imagine that SS adjusts the notation depending on the country of contributor. Soooo....for you:
US$18,808.80
