About Selling my footages

Hi, I just need to know is there anything I missed to do in my account? I coudnt sell so many videos like my friends account, we spoke so much about it. I dont understand, I really wish to earn more and I think I deserve it, working so much but never be enough to earn more. What is it I am missing to do? My quality isnt good enough or another thing that I cant see. In the begining some of my videos pond5 used in the front page as an example, so I dont think it is quality. If they dont like them, they woudnt pick those videos in the first place. Maybe my videos look good but not enough broadcast quality. Please help me reviewer. My dream is to earn more and buy a red camera in the future to make every of my videos more quality.

Hii @okanakdeniz , I'am newbi here , I've 500clips and sold 2 times. all your work awesome! I curious with your sales, how many clips you sold in a month with 11K clips? GLWS

@okanakdeniz,
You have high quality and unique stock footages. If you are not selling much, there's no point in setting your price so low. My advice is to set the HD price to $79 and 4K price to minimum of $149. Maybe potential buyers may think $25 clips are low quality. Shutterstock and Adobe Stock sells HD clips for $79 and 4k clips for $179 and $199. If somebody really needs your clip, he/she would pay $25 or $79. It wouldn't matter to them. You may sell more at $25/HD clip, but you have to sell 3x more than pricing at $79. I think you will make more money pricing at competitive professional rate. Your clips aren't craps. You shouldn't price them as if these are crap low quality footages.

Hi
we are all trying to do our best to sell, but it is not easy.
Your portfolio is good, lizard footage is great and in focus,
which is not very easy with these creatures :)

Have you tried promoting footage on Social media?
Please do not give up and great sales to you.

another thing that you can do is watermark your videos and post them on youtube with a link to your site at pond 5
its a bit risky but still watermarks cant be removed easy like with pics so even if someone download a copy he will struggle to remove the watermak and he cant use it.beside video theft and image theft happens in these sites too

@blvdoneprime: +10!

@okanakdeniz : your prices are terrible! Sorry. No words to add.

@blvdoneprime You’re totally right.

You are not making money because you are giving your work away. Or trying to give it away, all you are doing is attracting the low cost buyers who would rather not pay anything. I regularly sell clips for in excess of $500 every month. Raise your prices to match the value of your work. Your prices make you look cheap. Volume of low price will never make up for reasonable prices. As you were told, HD around $79 and 4K around and above $150. Agencies can make money by discounts because they have tens of millions of products. Individual Artists cannot survive with big discounts.
