Hello, very cool start. I am new also so I cant give credible advice, but it takes a lot of content to start making sales regularly.

You can visit my blog/site at http://www.stockvideoseller.com to get my take on my take what to sell, where to sell & how the stock footage market works. On the Resources page, there are lots of links to other peoples blogs, etc. In general, concentrating on unique footage from your area, keeping the visual quality a cut above the competition and pricing your submitted footage comparatively and competitively is a good recipe for sales. What do you have close to you in your area that others find difficult to get? Good luck!

Claudio, your portfolio looks pretty good! You have a good "eye" for photography and creating visually interesting images. You may want try some industrial or commercial images targeted at commercial buyers in a specific category. Be sure and spend lots of time looking at portfolios here on Pond5 and other agencies. See where others are having success or lack of. You may also want to register at as many different sites as you can. Clips sell differently on each agency. Good luck!
