Hi guys, Individual author sales says CAN drop during a bundle promotion. I’m not saying they did, but they CAN for obvious reasons. The upside of this however is that running bundles brings MASSIVE exposure to the Marketplace running the bundle (in this case VideoHive) bringing in a LOT of new customers along the way who may not have heard about VideoHive in the past. Some of those same customers typically return at a later point and see and purchase more of your work on an individual basis. So while you might think that your sales are down for 5-7 days, it’s temporary, but try to look at it as an investment for the future with a larger audience coming back to look at your work in the weeks and months to come.

You guys should definitely not worry, you might feel better if I told you that sales as a whole across VideoHive are up. They actually keep going up from month to month because of the incredible quality of work you guys sell here. You can see this yourself from the quantity of items sold on our Popular Items page. So no need to worry at all.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Very well said, Okan. The Envato Marketplaces are a true opportunity to anyone willing to marry hard work, patience and creativity. The very best of luck to you as your portfolios continue to grow and thanks for taking the time to share your personal story with us, very inspiring!

Hey guys,

We very occasionally approach existing marketplace authors to provide files when we need new content for new marketplaces, new categories within existing marketplaces, or just because we want to expand certain categories with more content. We have such an opportunity right now for authors who are familiar with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom and Apple Aperture. If you have some expertise with this software and you are available for some potential, paid freelance work, you may be interested in the following:

• We’re looking for Exclusive Envato Marketplace authors interested in creating/selling Lightroom and/or Aperture plugins/presets on GraphicRiver.
• You must be available for freelance work in the next 1-2 months.
• English as a first language is strongly recommended.
• You must be able to provide links to previous, relevant work to give us an idea of your background. Online personal work or relevant files you already have on GraphicRiver or PhotoDune are both acceptable.

If you are interested in this opportunity (and yes, we offer you a financial incentive), we’d really like to hear from you. Please complete the form below to apply:

Thanks in advance and we’ll be in touch if we select you!

What if the files submitted didn’t reach 30 (which I doubt, i’m just curious)? For example 26 entries only. Does it mean 3,000 USD divided by 26 or still 100 USD per enrty?

It’s still $100 per entry.

Would love to see some designs to have a better understanding of what might be required. I can’t believe the category is still empty??

There have been quite a few submissions already, they’re just being held right now until prices and requirements are established behind the scenes. See my previous post for more info, thanks for your patience.

What Do You Do If Your Item Isn’t Selling?

Leave it alone and create another one. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.
