Quote:1. How many uploads do we do every day?
2. How soon do we usually see first earning?
3. Any skill required if I want to continue this on my own after your service is completed?
4. How much do these sites usually pay per download?
5. Are we allowed to sell your designs exclusively for client if they request so?
Thanks, great questions!
1. If you’re new you can do 15-20 or above 10 per day, otherwise doing 5-8 uploads per day is enough already
2. It depends, you can see your first earning as soon as your first week doing this, it can be later, though if you change your mindset of doing this for long term, you can benefit for its passive income earnings, as you just have to upload it once, the more downloads you get the higher income you’ll earn. Just think about it, any other platforms that can still do this? Let’s check YouTube or blog Adsense? They are hard to get into, and you work twice as hard on creating the contents. You can implement many different strategies too, for example I am earning three ways:
1. From sales
2. From referral of my other accounts, I create multiple accounts and link them with my referral code so as other account make sales, my main account also get some earnings from referral
3. From bundling the designs and sell them at much higher price, for example I sell this bundle at graphicriver.
Additionally, sometimes client do ask for exclusive licensing for the design they desire, all I do just remove the particular design on my portfolio and charge a higher price from the client, that’s all.
3. I will share with you how you can design your own, along with all the tools I use, otherwise if you don’t have the time to do it I can do it for you, feel free to repeat order, I charge about $0.10-0.13 per design and they are as cheap as I can do it without sacrificing quality, and if each design sells once at the lowest price of about $0.25, which can be way more, you should earn back your investment and more.
4. For shutterstock, there are multiple source of download, from subscription, on-demand and team/business. And you are on contributor level based on your download numbers, that affect your commission %. You can check google about how much you should earn about based on download source + commission %
5. Yes, no problem, I won’t ask for any revenue from your sales
