Just interested to see how many sales or leads are created by submitting photos to this portfolio.

I did have a look at the success stories, but there were only 10 comments.

Be interested to hear your views.

Regards

Graeme

Graeme, any response I give would be kind of self-serving. :rolleyes:

But I have received several requests, one to use my At Home Amongst the Trees photo. I'm sure the more talented photographers who have successfully marketed their photos via PhotoPortfolios will eventually chime in on this one.

Yes, that would be nice Jim, but many thanks for your input. Cheers

I haven't had any "blind" sales from my portfolio, but do use it instead of a more expensive hosted web site. I've sold a number of prints by providing the link to my portfolio to show my photos when people ask if my photo work is for sale.

If you want to take the time to hunt for the specifics, Graeme, one of the the CNP (Colorado region) guys posted a week or two ago that he was contacted by National Geographic Adventure magazines through his postings here and possibly his portfolio. I don't recall a few of the details, but he said he was surprized they were poking around here on NPN.
