Its another RECORD Month for Sales on Shutterstock!

I LOVE Shutterstock

Thank You

Merry Christmas to Everyone from your friend Mike Ledray

Yeeeeeeeeeeeee Haaaaaaaaaaa
HO HO HO

You got to a payout this time?

Merry Christmas!

If Only one day!
I still hope to reach that elusive $75.00 pay out level.
Perhaps then I can buy something special.
One day, One day

Lol
Merry Christmas

Ohh man, it's not worth the hustle. With your talents and features, you just need to grow a big beard and you can be a walmart santa anyday.

LOL!

Pretty pathetic still. A mere 33 cents for one sale. After getting a few hundred more images accepted last year it's a poor return $:-\$

Yesterday almost best day ever... Good start in 2014

Phadrea · « **Reply #303 on:** January 07, 2014, 01:36 »

2014 so far = dead. What a disappointment after adding a lot more files and building sales at the end of last year which started to fall off mid December.

My dls are almost exactly the same as at this time last year. I did pick up an EL in the first week of 2013, so my earnings are down by comparison, but ELs scatter pretty randomly so there is no reason yet to think this Jan will be much different to the last one, which was a pretty average month for me.

Worst start to a month in 3 years, 9 subs in 6 days!

Yeah, I may end up with rum to wash away the slow start of the year

Allsa · « **Reply #309 on:** January 08, 2014, 10:32 »

Very slow, except for yesterday, which was pretty good, very slow otherwise.

Phadrea · « **Reply #310 on:** January 09, 2014, 03:31 »

Well I had 11 sales yesterday. My best day yet so hopefully things are picking up ?

BaldricksTrousers · « **Reply #311 on:** January 09, 2014, 04:20 »

With a ferocious heatwave in Australia, widespread flooding and storm disruption in the UK and Western Europe, and an extraordinary ice-storm all over the US it is a bit surprising that my dls are only down about 8% on the same time last year. It's way too early to start worrying about this year's figures.

Amen.

I doubled my slow start of the year, yesterday, if things keep going like this then we should be fine. My strong months seem to be July, August, September, so if it keeps building up, and with new content added, I am hoping to hit 500-600$ per month in 6 months with roughly 1500-1600 images by then.

hofhoek · « **Reply #313 on:** January 10, 2014, 07:03 »

My European sales are way behind my usual sales. The rest of the world did fine yesterday. Today only one(!) sale so far. Usually I have 12 to 15 by now.

My january 2014 growth is already (after 10 days) 159% compared to full january 2013.
My prevision is a minimum growth of 400 % for january.
But I had a lot of less images in 2013.

dingles · « **Reply #315 on:** January 10, 2014, 09:35 »

Sales have been strong this month so far. I hope the momentum keeps up

I dont know why you got the vote down, I guess some people cant stand others being successful or they think you are a liar. On the MSG mug thread someone got a vote down for no apparent reason, I assume out of spite or envy. Christmas is only two weeks ago, where we wished each other all the best...

Anyhooooo, I am at 84% of my January 2013 earnings and we are only on 1/3 of the month. I assume come Monday I have already beaten my Jan 13 earnings.

Love these kinds of posts!

Examples of general comments-

1. Worst month ever
2. Best Month ever
3. Up 124%
4. Down 65%

Heck, why not just use a mathematical formula like this to predict the month?

A function f(x) is "increasing" at a point x0 if and only if there exists some interval I containing x0 such that f(x0) > f(x) for all x in I to the left of x0 and f(x0) < f(x) for all x in I to the right of x0.

robhainer · « **Reply #318 on:** January 10, 2014, 11:13 »

My sales are trending upward, almost back to normal. I'm getting 50s and 60s in total sales where I was in 60s, 70s and 80s in the summer and fall. Good mix of ODs and subs this week, with total earnings from ODs being more than subs.

LOL, anonymous complaining about people posting percentages of how they are doing. Cheecky.

Take it easy Ron!

I think that it is enough clear.

I think that it is obvious that with about 3 times more images, and a little more experience on microstocks, I have more sales now.

Don't worry about jealousy…
Their jealousy is their problem, not mine (our)

Incomes in this month, are being the same as in January 2012, two years ago. As I've probably tripled the portfolio, so a typical month of January is not. And compared to January last year is 50% down.

I'm about 40% down on the first fortnight of January last year. It is starting to look a bit worrying.

2 ELs and SODs result in a BWE, keep 'em coming!

gostwyck · « **Reply #324 on:** January 15, 2014, 09:23 »

So far I'm about 12% up January but that's as much due to a chunky SOD yesterday as anything else. Volume-wise, downloads are almost identical.
