Same here mate
10 Days remaining lets hope everyone get sales
I was comparing last 3 years, graph is somehow similar for May but in number of sales, itās dropped about 50% in the current month .
In the last 3 years i developed 56 Videohive items and 54 Audiojungle items
That is more than 100+ items in last 3 years and earnings are slowing down without reason.
Do we lack of marketing, or something else?
Same meā¦ This year sales are dropping down every month. I try to be positive but is desperate.
I believe its always been an increase in saturation and competition. There are simply more high-quality producers and competing marketplaces these days, making it increasingly difficult to generate the same volume of sales as years past. Not to say it isnāt possible to continue growing sales in todayās environment, but it surely is harder to stand out from the crowd.
The same here!
Agree, but what about marketplace members? We have 8+ millions last year, maybe itās time to switch on subsciption model. This ADP model does not look promising to me
I got invited to move all my items into Envato Elements, but I didnāt accept it, I was afraid that the sales will be worse, because I donāt have much of items to spread it in Envato element, all I have just 45 items and I donāt think will get the good sales for this. I wish to hear author feedback who participated in Envato elements.
It seems the Envato video elements effected the ADP market here.
Envato elements has after effects templates too? I had no idea. Which is the link?
3 days with no sales.
9 items, last submission 5 January 16 i think that is the problem.
This is getting worst!
Youāre selling all of your items for $7 - $10 when Envato is taking itās $6 cut ->>>
How will ADP ever be promising for you, dude?
Maybe try the other way, give your items and hard work more credit than that?
I make that decision last night, since May is a bad month why not give opportunity to every buyer to grab something for a few $. Also in this World there are many countries where $8 -$10 is much worth than in EU or US. At the end i will see the results.
You doing just that what you actually told you hate about author driven prices. I remember you saying that authors will start lowering the prices so drastically that market will be destroyed.
Agree but if you take a closer look to Envato Elements for a $19 you got subscription. I think authors earn few $ per subscriber but with unlimited potential. At the end itās 50% discounted till 01.06. Iām just doing the mathā¦
No. After effects on elements only available for yearly subscriptions.
Well the huge drop appeared on April. So we need to research and understand what happened on april.
It might be a huge trend shift. Or prices increase because of author driven pricing. The prices became very inconsistent.
When buying project year ago I knew that for 16 usd I will get around 10 seconds logo. And for 28usd I will get ~minute intro. ā¦ nowā¦ the prices are so different and so unconsistent that you actually need to sit and review each project. Prices are no longer a good thing to evaluate. So if you see 15usd and 25usd logo reveals they might be absolutely the same value or that 15usd might even be betterā¦
So it has become very tireing to search for projects. As now you simply cant rely on price. You cant filter anymore ā¦ You need to sit and view all those previews to understand what is the project all about.
I said that author driven pricing will plumet the market. I think we are seeing the start of it. But I do think with new trends new buyers will come and new buyers will create new patterns. We live in a constant change. Dont forger that.
