Canva / Re: Thumbnails on the sales page
« on: March 10, 2018, 05:44 »
I didn't asked for the sales stats, graphs and other stuff. I just asked for something very simple.

They already have the sales page with the textual links. Replacing textual links with image links - thumbnails should be very easy to do, and it would mean a lot for us.

Canva / Thumbnails on the sales page

Hopefully people from Canva still follow this forum.

So, people from Canva, I know that getting buyers / customers and making them happy is your priority, and you do that very well, but you should consider implementing something minor for the contributors as well. You should put the thumbnails on the sales page instead of the textual links so that we, especially we with many sales, can track and see what sells and what sells the best.

This can influence our decision what to upload further and this can get us more sales in the future. Even without that, I think this feature is not much to ask, it should be easy to implement it, and easy tracking of your sales is only normal. Right now it's too time consuming and difficult.

thanks for reading, and hopefully you will implement this.

He can't market or go anywhere without the content. And he can't get any traffic without the content.

So as the 1st step this is what he does - he tries to get as much content as possible. It would be easier for him to get the content if he would say something relevant and promising regarding the next step (marketing - getting actual buyers), but that's the other issue. And of course, the site must be already better developed and fully functional, so maybe he came for the content too early.

Offering the cheapest plan is not the way to success, it's marketing and to some degree quality. Plain and simple.

Nobody competes with fiverr with less than $5 per work

??? ?
If I'm not mistaken, on fiverr the minimum pay per work done is $5. And I don't know for any similar site on which you can offer less than that per work, despite the fact that there are people, especially from India, who would offer their work for cents if they could.

Similar is with stock, I don't think that there will be sites which will offer less than $5 per image, unless there are subscription plans, or smaller prices for smaller sizes, or different licensing, like Canva's $1 per 1 usage. I think that so called race to bottom in microstock stops here.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Nobody competes with fiverr with less than $5 per work, so it's a good chance that $5 photos stays unique. Sounds catchy, it offers simplicity, so with a good marketing it can be OK.

The keyword is a good marketing, this is what made the difference between successful sites and the rest. This is why from the new sites only Canva succeeded while the others failed, and this is why from the little older sites Depositphotos is in the middle tier, while others are pretty much nowhere. Even with the coolest site in the world and excellent content, you will hardly go anywhere without a good marketing.

And by good marketing, I don't mean ads on Google and Facebook, not many will click on that, by good marketing I mean right people who know the right people and who really know how to attract buyers and spread the word. Which is easier said than done. That's why there is a difference between successful sites and the others.

SpaceStockFootage, can you tell how are your 4k sales on MA comparing to other sites?

And do you send 4k video in hd size as well (2 sizes as 2 separate submissions?) or do you send just one size (and which one)?
