Share your unexpected best-sellers!

I’m curious how many of you have uploaded items of which you thought they were never gonna sell, but unexpectedly did.
Whether it’s a positive ukelele deathmetal track or a happy clap gangster beat. Share your accidental hits!

This one is mine: http://audiojungle.net/item/dramatic-reveal/7687419

It was my third upload, I had not sold anything for the first three months, and this one was my first ever sale. This inspired me to upload some more stuff!

would you believe 23 sales for a very short whistling tune??

(too bad the sfx are worth 1$ only! :smiley: )

Hope I won’t break any forum rules by posting links here but one track I didn’t expect would ever become popular is: http://audiojungle.net/item/corporate-motivation/10434531

Ha! I like the tracks posted here. The whistle and “dun dun dun!” are perfect examples of why I love AudioJungle. Where else could you create something so simple and fun and have it provide use to others like this?

I actually think we’ve had a lot more songs that we thought were going to take off, and never did anything. :slight_smile:

This was a bit of an upbeat outsider among the typical Zimmer-ish tracks in the cinematic category. It didn’t take off initially, actually the first year or so sales were close to zero. I figured it was a bit too 80’s Superman styled for the modern audience. But then one day suddenly sales started to come in. I was pleasantly surprised :sunglasses:

@WorldBeyond I think it’s okay to share your tracks as long as it is in the ‘rooftop’ section of the forums!

I know it’s not in the same ballpark as some of your sales but my second best seller I did in about an hour before my wife got back from work! I thought it wouldn’t sell at all because there’s nothing to it but it’s doing quite nicely - http://audiojungle.net/item/relaxing-ambience/14959697

This ambient selling better than other tracks - Ambient Background
Also one of my corporate music kits selling very well - Commercial Kit.

@ElevateAudio I think it mostly is the other way around, yeah. Having high hopes for a track: 0 sales…

@Stockwaves Weird how that works sometimes, seems like a snowball effect, but what has caused it to suddenly get noticed? Aside from the fact that it is an awesome track of course!

@TenRoomsAudio maybe that’s your key to succes: Keep it simple and fast!

@LuckyBlackCat Great tracks, ambient seems to alwys be a reliable source of sales when done right.

Not sure, can only guess some VH author found it, used it, and inspired others to do the same. Thanks :sunglasses:

My champion number one :smile:
Epic Sport

And second place :sunglasses:
The Epic

they are competing together and in turn each track comes forward sometimes :smile:
