Agency Based Discussion > Pond5

40 days with no sales

Video-StockOrg:
My bad about the views, there are actually more views, but sales are rarer than in the past. In the past if there were some bumps of views, there was at least 1 sale. Now you can't even predict such sales.

We don't see any compensation on other stock agencies. At least it is not noticeable.

If you are not seeing a spike at other agencies, but the views are going up...my best guess would be they are heavily marketing their subscription service.

The artists that have content in the program do not get any information about the number of sales,they are selling inside a black box.

And everyone else loses if the customer choses a subs file, because a normal file is not even considered.

But that is the way they work, they are otherwise still a very good agency.

But we now have strong internal competition with the subs program and cannot take part.

Orchidpoet:
I don't really know, my guess is perhaps each month, they allow buyers to see my clips only for a short moment, and then the opportunity goes to someone else. Because sometimes, the sales concentrate on a short period of the month.

thepokergod:
That's a pretty harsh dry spell, sorry to hear that. It's happened to me a few times in the past and if its any consolation sales have come back.

First two weeks of October were pretty poor there then last week went nuts with lots of sales. Just overtaken 2014 as my best year ever there with 2 months to spare!

AshMnats:
Very sad.
