About Nil to Mil
About Nil to Mil – our microstock journey from $0 to $1,000,000
I’m Matt Antonino, host and owner of N2m. I’ve photographed everything from babies to weddings, models to cars and sports. I am a full time photographers although full time in what depends on the season. Weddings take up May through November and commercial stock photography is the remainder.
Nil to Mil is my attempt to chronicle my microstock journey from nil to our first microstock $1 million. It can be done. What it takes – we’re going to find out. Nil to Mil is a site I’ve had in mind since I started microstock. I am a statistics junkie and a data tracker. In my mind, there?s a method to all of this microstock madness and if I can get to the bottom of it, I know it can be an amazing source of revenue for us.
I think I can make $1 million in microstock because professional, business-oriented microstock photographers are still a growing and somewhat rare breed. I have worked together for seven years building two businesses already. Photography, marketing and selling – that’s who I am.
My big obstacle to overcome in this journey to $1 million is scale. I already know I can be successful at stock photography. $1 million isn’t successful though – it’s WILDLY successful. I need to scale my business up from start to explosion.
I am still a student of this game. Nothing I say on the blog should be interpreted as I “think I know it all” because I don’t. I’m offering up ideas and theories – play with them, examine them, challenge them. I do. Your participation on my journey is critical to realizing the best in what I can be. Thank you for reading!
