Sales dropped to 0 since going "exclusive"

Has anyone else had sales drop to ZERO after going "exclusive"? Or is it just a coincidence?
I'll give it another month, but if there are still no sales here I'll have to move on to other sellers. The whole "exclusive" push seems to have killed Pond5.

Wait, you can go exclusive on here? I must have missed the memo. What's the % split on that?
Sorry to hear about your experience.

Since the exclusive option has been introduced, I'm noticing wild fluctuations in my stats/sales. Audio producer here.

I haven't gone for an exclusive contract yet, I'm still non-exclusive, yet my sales dropped very low(0 or 1) when compared before the months they announced about this program. Are the customers moving out from Pond5?

Mine slowed down a little bit for now. I'm optimistic that things will even out soon.

This is worrisome. It sounds like the move to exclusive for Pond5 (and therefore for sellers) has been a mistake.

Maybe because your exclusive prices are more like bottom basement pricing? Will be impossible to make the forecast 50% revenue increase P5 has said when 4K and HD pricing is way below industry average available anywhere prices ...

Missed that. Where do I find the exclusive option?
