What is going on?

Discussion started by bizkit001

Just want to find out whether it is just me or is everybody having low sales? I have not had a sale in 3 months on CGT where I have had 8 sales on TS in the past  3 months. Yes, I do get 80% Royalty here, but, maybe the 51% on Squidguild isn't so bad. I am thinking of giving it another month to see whether i should join the squidguild again if I have no sales here.

Have you tried to promote your CGTrader models on turbosquid? You can put on your turbosquid model description that the same model are available even on CGtrader at lower price (because here you have better royalty).

I don't think you can advertise your CGTrader models on TurboSquid. That just sounds like a good way to get banned. ;)

But have you tried your own advertising? Do you have a Facebook or Twitter account? Have you tried posting a link to your CGTrader product in your newsfeed?
Do you have a DeviantArt account? Try posting some images of your model with a link to your product page.

l also think advertising CGT links on TS is a sure way to get banned. Wont risk losing the 40% royalty on that. At least it is something every month.

I am advertising on some facebook groups. But the groups are mostly Ts groups and Cg artist groups. Most people on these groups are also 3D modelers and i dont think that is helping me alot. I do get alot of views on my models on cgt everytime i post it to fb and also get alot if likes on the pages. I have also incorporated a preview of my models in unity which people can download and look wat the model looks like before the buy but that doesnt really boost sales.
maybe i am just advertising in the wrong groups etc.

Thanks John Hoagland, i will have a look at a deviant art account. At the moment i am advertising on FB, linkedIn and google+.

I do not thing, that the summer is bad period for selling models.
I will only say this :
Here I have not no sails already 20 days, but in Turbosquid I have the best sales this month there.
Another thing:
We must have statisticks for all the sells and search rezults.I am feeling like a blame here.
And the last : Similar wed statistics for the visitors for May 2015 :
CG Trader : 550 000 monthly visits
Turbosquiid : 2 300 000 monthly visits.
Thats all and have a nice day to all.:)
