Here we go with the Q3 sales. Overall, there was a pleasant increase in sales over Q3, mainly down to the boost that the ENnies nominations and our celebratory sale had. However, it's important to note that (from where I'm sitting), it was the direct sales boost that really affected our numbers. IPR did not experience a sharp increase due to the ENnies.

I failed to put up figures for our Q1 results, mainly due to the busy-ness of thesis writing and tutoring. However, I've now put all the figures in to the usual spreadsheet and have the numbers for both Q1 and Q2. There's some interesting stuff to be said, especially in light of Q2 figures.

As a follow up to this post, I now have real numbers from IPR...

So... End Q4 2008: 1017 total sales.

End Q1 2009: 1250 total sales.

Direct: 28 books
IPR: 124 books, 31 PDFs
OBS: 50 PDFs
Total: 152 books, 81 PDFs [Total: 233 sales]

For a lifetime of 641 books, 609 PDFs [Total: 1250 sales].

And here are the totals for 2008. The number in brackets is the 2007 total, if applicable.

The a|state PDF really did give a kick in the arse to sales. With just a fraction under half of our sales from PDFs, it's proved a valuable addition to our line-up of electronic product, as well as providing a cheap and easy buy-in to the game.

Sorry for the delay in getting these up, my IPR numbers came in as I was in transit to New Zealand and my fall there has held me up since I've been back.

Anyway...

And I have some numbers for January and the first week of February (I'll report these officially as part of Q1 2009)...

The final figures are in for Q4 of 2008. In a couple of days I'll be posting up the overall figures for 2008 along with some thoughts on where we went, where we are going, highlights and lowlights.

Figures given in brackets are the sales figures for the previous quarter.
