Ok, I am going to watch how it carries on. I currently have an acceptance ratio of just over 50%, which rounded down means approx 15 galleries would get listed over a 30 day period using the one per day rule. Now that I am going to only be able to submit 15 per month this means that I would need a 100% acceptance ratio to get as much "bang for my buck". Now bearing in mind that most of my declines are usually because of "overflow, too many similar submissions", is it right that I can expect to see the number of those sorts of declines drop?
I am going to monitor this over the next 35-40 days (Im allowing for the 5 pending to have some declines due to the one every other day rule). If I see an increase to say 70-75% then I would call that a fair compromise. If I dont then it would be fair to say you have done a great dis-service to those who have already paid in advance.
You know what, if you had sent an email to your partners explaining that you are getting swamped with submissions and were introducing this new rule it would have sucked, but it would have been more up front and acceptable. To get the first decline owing to "one every other day" was not nice when I had paid to submit one per day.
