It's all covered, plus a whole lot more!
Stock Photography is big these days and there is serious
money being paid for great images every day. It's no surprise that more and more
photographers are taking to the internet looking for new outlets for their work,
unfortunately most never really have a chance.
For better or worse, there is no shortage of photo libraries willing
to take on work from new photographers. Regardless of talent or experience, most
photographers will find a 'library' somewhere that will accept their work.
The problem is, representation doesn't guarantee sales.
In fact, the wrong representation can almost guarantee you don't
make sales and can damage your prospects for years to come.
Setting up a stock presence requires a serious investment of time,
effort and money. If your work isn't suitable or you just aren't ready, then it's all
going to be for nothing. If you don't do it properly on the right platform, it's all
for nothing.
Stock Photography is the business of marketing quality images.
The business is You and Your Images. The Stock Photo Library
is simply one tool that you use to help you market your images. It can be a major part
of your business, but it's not enough any more to just find a Stock Photo Library, post
some photos and wait for sales to happen. You need to approach this as a business.
You need to actively market a viable volume of suitable images to
an appropriate customer-base in an efficient and professional manner.
So how exactly do you do that?
And how do you decide if you're up to the task?
While there are no black-and-white answers or hard-and-fast rules, this
report aims to fill in a few of these blanks for you and gives you a few more essential
questions you should ask yourself before you start.
It's only 14 pages but we've cut out all the fluff and packed it
full of straight-forward answers to all the questions that photographers ask us every
week. No matter where you're at right now, this must-read report will save you time
and show you the traps to avoid.
