Since it is nearing the end of the first quarter, I am curious to see if anyone, besides me, has seen a slow down in RF sales in 2014 compared to previous years?
Actually this will be my best quarter ever on RF sites.
I’m about even. What’s interesting though is the RF library that has performed best for me for a few years actually performed horribly for me this quarter. But to counter that, one of the other libraries that only performed mediocre for me before has been extraordinary this quarter. So it all has evened out.
Best first quarter ever.
RF sales are still growing steadily for me. This quarter will be a little better than the last one. As a side note, I finally got my foot in the door for TV placements with several reports coming back to me this past month, a nice surprise, thanks in a large part to a certain Library up here in my native Canada that I signed with last year ! I’m optimistic this is going to be a break out year, fingers crossed 🙂
@ Gary,
Agreed. My worst quarter in a very long time. Taking a beating at libraries that have typically been very strong….one in particular. Has me pretty concerned about either RF, or how my brand is interacting in the RF market.
Earlier on was good for me but this month in particular has been pretty poor. I’ve only got one steady RF account so far though so I think it’s time for me to broaden focus a bit.
Google quietly adjusted their search algorithm in mid December and it had a big impact – RF websites that were always on the first page were suddenly way back in the search results. I think it’s the main reason sales are down at some sites.
That’s interesting Mark – didn’t know that.
I heard that too Mark. It’s amazing how powerful a google search can be. I guess it’s a solid lesson for us and library owners to make sure to stay on top of SEO.
