VideoBlocks Launches Premium Stock Video Marketplace Where Contributors Keep 100% of Commissions, 客户每次下载节省40%
雷斯顿,弗吉尼亚州(4月13日)
VideoBlocks, a subscription-based provider of unlimited royalty-free stock video, today announced the official public launch of a new Marketplace that allows members to purchase an additional 200,000 premium clips directly from its contributor community. VideoBlocks will take 0% commission on all Marketplace sales, 和 instead pass on the savings to its members – an average savings of 40%, or about $30 per HD download when compared to competitive sites.
这是股票媒体行业的第一次, VideoBlocks announced late in 2014 that all contributors to the Marketplace would be rewarded with 100% of commissions from every sale. 结果是, 超过200人,000 clips have been uploaded to the Marketplace from over 1,000 different contributors worldwide in just under three months.
“Since first announcing the Marketplace in late 2014, the response from the contributor community has surpassed our wildest expectations. We’re now incredibly excited to open up the Marketplace to our customers, who already conduct millions of searches for video clips every month. We think offering our customers the option to save 40% by buying directly from contributors will make VideoBlocks their one-stop-shop for all of their production needs,乔尔·霍兰德说, VideoBlocks创始人兼首席执行官.
The new Marketplace Library will be an additional benefit to VideoBlocks customers, who currently pay an average of $99/year for unlimited downloads from VideoBlocks’ Unlimited Library, which now includes more than $10MM worth of HD video clips, After effects模板, 运动背景和下三分之一. 类似的, the option to buy individual clips directly from contributors in the new, separate Marketplace Library will also be a members-only benefit.
“We want to do for stock media what Amazon has done with its Prime Instant Video 和 On Dem和 video libraries. Our existing Unlimited Library provides a diverse collection of stock that’s included for free with your VideoBlocks membership, but in the event you have more specific needs for a project we want to be sure you don’t need to leave the site to meet them. Our customers told us that the combination of our Unlimited Library with a new Marketplace would save them both time 和 money, 所以我们为他们建造了它,霍兰说。.
VideoBlocks will continue to invest heavily in adding new content to its Unlimited Library to provide more valuable content at no additional cost. At the same time customers can purchase additional clips directly from VideoBlocks contributors in the Marketplace for $49 per HD clip, 4K售价199美元, 模板19 - 49美元.
到目前为止, VideoBlocks’ customers have downloaded over 30 million video clips from the existing Unlimited Library, 每月的新下载量超过100万次. The Marketplace will work h和-in-h和 with the existing Unlimited Library to add value to subscribers. VideoBlocks is able to take no commission on Marketplace sales 和 pass savings to customers because it is supported by its membership fees. 有了新模型, VideoBlocks expects increased membership acquisition 和 retention by being a one-stop shop for the creative community who want the same great content as other sites, 但是打了很大的折扣.
