144 Sales in 10 Days     posted on 19th of june, 2011

Things are going well for me on Dreamstime. Over the last quarter sales are slightly down, but revenue is up significantly.
Even though sales are slightly down, I still managed to do 144 sales in just 10 days.
I'm now doing around $630 per month.
This is from 2386 images on sale (as of 19 June 2011).

Hi Steve,

That is great news! I suppose even if the actual sales are down
as long as the revenue is up that's the ultimate goal! I am
envious - hahaha.

Yes, I am still doing well from 'Stock'. But not as well as in the good old days! In 2004 my total yearly earnings from stock was in excess of $570,000. Now, in 2011 it's down to just $205,000. A sign of the times I'm afraid, nowadays images sell for far less. About 90% of my income is through the 5000 or so images I have with ********. With ******** the average sale is between $60 and $100 with the occasional larger sale that may be over $1000. My biggest ever single sale was $24,750 made back in 2003.

If that is still 3% of your monthly income like in says in your profile page, you are doing well with stock ! Congrats... I'm seeing the same thing - sales down a little, revenue up. - posted by Bradcalkins on June 20, 2011

I was a professional Industrial / Commercial photographer for over 25 years, before retiring from commissioned work to become a full-time 'Stock' Photographer. Since 2005 I have earned my entire six figure annual income from shooting 'Stock' images. The majority of my work is available through mainstream Stock Agencies - I have over 27,500 images on sale and submit to the following agencies:

Image Bank - BrandX - Stone - Photodisc - Digital Vision - Riser - Stockbyte - Creatas - Foodpix - Photoshot - Alamy - Science Photo Library - Dreamstime
Sales of DT images account for about 5% of my total turnover.

Have a look at my list of COLLECTIONS ------->

Well over half of my work is now Travel or Wildlife Photography.
I'm a 'travelaholic' and have so far visited 84 countries & territories including both the Arctic and Antarctica.

MY TRAVEL PLANS FOR 2012 & 2013:

February 2012 - 10 day visit to Krakow in Poland. √
