Sales down 70% from 2018 to 2023 !!! Terrible status! What do you think about the future?

Maybe sooner. I’m already hitting “zero” for a while now…

They excluded my products by default. The e-mail was to inform me iff I eventually wanted to opt-in

April 2025 has been the worst month ever. I made more sales on my very first month on VH in September 2012 with only a bunch of timelapses.
1 sale on another website made me more money than on VH with a portfolio of over 900 items.
To celebrate this monumental disaster i just removed my exclusivity after a 12 years long relationship.
I feel a bit weird about it but Im sure it s the best decision ever!
I cant wait to start uploading somewhere else and see how it goes…it cant get worse than this so im pretty confident it’s going to work!

Ragazzi, inutile stupirsi, lo si capiva da almeno 18 mesi.

For me has been a very good month, specially considering the huge holidays period this April had. Obviously not on Envato, but even on the market, I made a decent amount to round up my shop incomes. Around +20% compared to 2024

The real problem is still to find new customers: anything new is like invisible.The saturation is total. Thanks God I got good products and good customers, but I guess isn’t possible anymore to get an income creating WordPress products nowadays.

PS: my Elements “trial” earned me awesome 3.5$ for March downloads :rofl:

Does anyone know how to boost the sales of our products on our own?

With advertises but if you’re doing it on your own, it’s pointless to pay Envato over 30% commission.

Its really sad to see everyone getting graph down on sell even i didnt manage to get minimum payout from last two month. it`s really disappointed for artist to reduce their sell graph :frowning: i think envato should do something for the artist. as we are with the envato from the beginning.

To compete with AI, the only way to generate joint profits, Envato should focus on authors with quality products like before. We’re sorry to be annoying, but why would a customer buy a simple article if AI will make it for them for free

Also a terrible drop in sales by 3 times, despite the fact that the number of tracks I had was actively growing! For the last 2 months I have 0 sales! My life is ruined and so is my future, because audio stocks in this world are the only thing that can allow electronic music producers to earn a living…

STOP selling CODEs on Elements!

5 Likes

The problem was yourselves. You started selling on Elements, where a client comes and buys a month’s worth of work for $15, and the worst part is that of that $15, you get $1 or $2 at most.

You want to at least recoup your earnings; sell your products in their respective categories.

Stop giving away your work. Either we all eat, or no one eats.
