"But the CEO declined to disclose any sales data."

Interesting facts:

Jason (41, 3 kids) holded more-less every single title in his career - used to be COO, CMO, SVP, VP, General Manager, Director... He spent 8 years with American Express and 6 years at http://www.web.com/

No experience with stock media, as per his LinkedIn profile.

And in June 2016 he sold 30K of shares at web.com - http://www.franklinindependent.com/web-com-group-inc-nasdaqwebs-insider-jason-teichman-unloaded-30000-shares/

His earnings in 2015, $1.42 million - http://executives.findthecompany.com/l/63311/Mr-Jason-Teichman

Ex CEO Ryan Scott who served for 1 year only left P5.

I don't like many of the changes they have made in the last year, let's hope the new CEO has more sense than to break something that works well.

Web.com has a decent web hosting service (NetworkSolutions)., But my experience with their web marketing service was a big waste of money.

Yes, but he didn't want to reveal any sales data. So we guess it's sinking. :-(

First let him learn what stock media is and hope he won't be "Jack of all trades, master of none" (considering all the titles he hold).

Also this from TC - "Pond5 founder Tom Bennett was not immediately available for an interview about the changing of the guard. Accel Partners’ John Locke, an investor in Pond5’s Series A round, said “Coming of age is a good description for what’s going on here.”

Meaning, Investors want them to grow up and we know what that means! :-)

Time will tell.

He talks about looking forward and finding the next great creative assets, but I hope he'll take the time to also look at what they have and figure out how to better market it. They never took the Images section of the site seriously. They've always been video first and foremost, and oh, yeah, they sell photos and vectors on the side. They seemed to want to broaden the marketplace a couple of years back, and they ingested a lot of non-video content but they never did much with it or make any noticeable shift to a more multi-media marketplace.

It's too bad, really. They pay well per sale, just wish they made any effort to actually sell the non-video content.
