Video - Pricing at Pond5
rene:
Hi,
I start to sell my footages at Pond. Looks very interesting. With only 20 videos I have already 3 sales in 2 weeks. Compared to my portfolios (video) at IS and SS with over 200 files and only 3-5 sales/month Pond rocks. And they pay us 50%. I'll probably fix prices of my video at Pond lower then prices at IS and SS. I still get more than at others sites. I prefer buyers go to Pond, it's win-win model. What prices you put at Pond?
Thanks

I put 5-10$ on my first ones. the following I let the "curator" do the pricing for. 25$ !!!
They should have guidelines. length/quality and content etc...

*** OLD THREAD ***
Just didnt want to open a new thread.
I have started selling video on P5. What do you suggest for pricing videos? I have set all videos at $100 dollar, so $50 dollar for me.
Seems people are selling for $20 dollar there ($10 for them), but I get like $23-$27 on SS for a video sale (30%).
I think $100 is fair but I dont want to price myself out of the market as I dont shoot high end stuff.
Suggestions? Thanks.

I price around the $50 mark for commercial and $30-40 for editorial, aiming to be cheaper than IS and about a par with SS. I don't use models or expensive shoots and everything I do can quite easily be replicated by others. If I was doing more high quality clips I would pitch them at around $100. Even $100 is cheap compared to traditional agencies
I sell far fewer videos at P5 than SS, even though my two portfolios are close to identical. My theory is that P5 buyers are spoilt by some videographers selling too cheaply, making mine look expensive. I wish sellers wouldn't pitch low as it will eventually drag down the microstock market for everybody.
