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.

Cold City

To coincide with the anniversaries of two important periods in modern history, Contested Ground Studios is having a sale.

October sees the anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis, a time of incredible fear and tension.

November sees the anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, a time of great celebrations and the symbolic end of the Cold War.

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.

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.

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.

As Gregor mentioned in his posting about BoxNinja sales, the figures from IPR are now in, so a full accounting of how CGS did during Q3 can be given.
