500 videos - low sales - I need critiques

Hello,

I have built a portfolio of 500 videos in my first year here. I have sold 37 videos total.

I sold only 1 video in january 2015....

Could you guys give some critiques to help me increase sales?

Thanks a lot :)

To be honest ... it's a number game. You have 500 and P5 has over 3 million and numerous other agencies have millions more. If you have a sale in 2015 you are probably not far away from normal with than many clips and based on the subject matter. General travel and nature sell far far less than model released commercial clips. Stock is not a get rich quick business. It takes a lot of patience and far more work than most new artists understand.

Actual critique sometimes gets people real touchy and offended. The easiest is go to Artist resources and you will see dozens of clips that have sold in the last 7 days and many more in 30 days. You will also notice that some are very high quality and other are everyday normal yet they sell for a lot more money than you are.

Patience and good luck.

Thanks a lot for your reply!

I understand that this market is not a get rich quick business. I have never though of it that way. I've been working hard to grow my portfolio for more than 1 year know and this is the first time I have posted something in this community.
I just want to know with older contributors if my tags, prices, frames, etc... are all right.

cheers
