Is anyone having sales with LuckyOliver. I have had one sale in my 2-3 months with them. I am curious why they have so quickly moved to the top of the rankings list (#4 on designers and #5 on photographer I think). Is this just hype? Are they sending in clickers?
Don't get me wrong, I love the carnival feeling, but its not making me any money where other "2nd tier" agencies are like BigStockPhoto, etc.
I think you have pegged while they do so well, it is because they are fun to work with. I don't sell much there either yet, but I honestly hope they do well. I have had good conversations with several of their staff and find their comments helpful.
For many people $$ is not everything in this business, many people are doing this to make a few pennies while they would be taking the pictures either way. This type of person will submit everything to LuckyOliver and nothing to iStock (because they are so hard to work with and maintain your love for photography in my opinion).
I'm just getting up to speed on all these sites...but I agree. I really like LO because of their attitude. I think I've sold 6 images in about a month with them...building a portfolio from 10 images (starting a month ago) to about 150 (approximately) now.
I agree...I hope they do well.
I was having some trouble with the ftp...but that got worked out. I really like their interface.
Wow...do I sound like I work for them. I don't. Hopefully they'll end up working for me.
