I'm not seeing a lot of love for Shutterstock right now.
Their customer service is a  " >:("  For example, I've tried to ask for my own stats but they answer like robots. I hate that!

Hi there everyone
Guys, I'm trying to develop a way to know my profits projection based in some data.
I just designed a very short questionnaire that I think will help me (and lately all of us) to try some advanced statistics based on your answers.
You WON'T have to type any kind of personal information. So you can be completely sure your answers will be anonymous.
Would you main to help me and answer the form?
If so, try to do it in the most accurate way, please.

So far, I've posted this in some other FB groups and I already have 20 answers, for this to be worth, I'll need more than 150. A friend of mine told me about this group and here I am, looking for your help.

I really appreciate your time. If you have a further question I'll be willing to answer.

The form is here:

I want to thank all the people that have participated so far.
I appreciate it. So far I have 10 more answers.

To solve some doubts: I won't do time series. I'll do multiple correlation analysis with some different strategies. If you wish to know more about, I may try to do a small tutorial about this and how it works.

Of course. It would be better if I use my own data. But it has not been possible for me to find this data with shutterstock, Which is the main enterprise I sell my pictures. Stats here are S*itty. And they don't help you to much (and that makes me a bit angry).

Anyway guys. Thanks a lot. I'll keep working on this.

a) your own data will have much more value than data from random volunteers.
b) You're asking all the wrong questions, so advanced statistics won't help

Thank you.
I agree My own data would help. I already explained that to another person.
But, it catches my attention, why do you say b) ?

While it might be of interest I think it would be more productive to look at your own earnings pattern and delve into that.....too many variables in other peoples experiences to draw much meaning....you can look at SS quarterly figures which give some overall figures and analyse those too.

You are totally right. I WOULD LIKE  to have a look at my own stats. But, Shutterstock answers are ...useless... (if I try not to use swear words).
I asked them the same information i am asking here, but they are very -unhelpful- and -unkind-.
That's why I have to do this, this way.

Any way, thank you very very much for taking your time to fill the little form.

I wouldn't bother. Sure, it might give you a 'same city as the ballpark' figure, but it's going to be so inaccurate it's not really worth the effort. The results of the survey might indicate you'll make $1000 a month and you might end up making $100 a month. On the other hand, you might make $5000 a month.

Thank you for perception.
But, I took that perspective into account. That's why I need a big amount of answers.
And finally, I am not trying to answer that question. It goes beyond. I promisse I will post the results as soon as I have a report.
Once again, thank you very very much for your cooperation. I really appreciate that.
