SOLUTION'S Stock Photo Requests Mailing List
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Where do these stock photo requests come from?
A: When online photo buyers cannot find what they need on our site, some will ask for a custom offline photo search. If we do an off-line file search (since only a portion of our 200,000 images are online), and we have what they need, we send them sample thumbnail images by e-mail attachment, or post the results to a private Web page. If we don't have what they need (about 50% of the time), we ask their permission to post their photo request to our mailing list (the you are thinking of joining right now).
Q: What will be the quality of these photo requests?
A: We require the photo buyer to be willing to pay at least $200.00 (US) in order to place the photo request to our mailing list.
Q: Do I need to be a professional photographer in order to join this list?
A: You should be capable of professional quality photography and be professional in your business practices, i.e. responding quickly, politely, and in the manner requested by the photo buyer. You should be capable of sending digital samples when requested, and send actual film or high-resolution digital files promptly. (Do not send digital samples by e-mail attachment until you have asked permission from the photo buyer.) By the way, you can even be a competing stock photo agency, and still join this list!
Q: Do you get a commission or fee when I make a photo sale?
A: Suggested prices for reproduction use (and how the image will be used) will usually be listed with the request. You will deal directly with the photo buyer, and negotiate your fee with the photo buyer. You will invoice the photo buyer directly. At this time we do not request a fee or a commission for this referral. Our main purpose for giving out these photo requests is to help the photo buyer find the images they seek so that they will continue to use our on-line services.
Q: Do you sell e-mail addresses? Will list members get spam? Can I rent a list of
email addresses from ListBot?
A: No. Neither ListBot or The Stock Solution rents or sells email addresses. Interested people must join our mailing list voluntarily from our web site.
Q: Can I have my name removed from the mailing list?
Q: Your site uses cookies...I've heard they are an invasion of privacy and insecure. Is this true?
A: ListBot uses cookies to record your identity when you log in. The List Member area will store it on your hard drive only if you check the checkbox on the log in page. To protect yourself, use the "Log Off" option when you are done using ListBot. This will remove the cookie from your computer. ListBot also uses strong encryption to ensure that no one can maliciously log in to your account.
Q: How do I change my e-mail address?
A: Log into the system and select the Change E-Mail option.
Q: I don't know my password. How do I find out what it is?
A: No, it doesn't cost anything. ListBot manages this list for us. You may join as many lists as you wish, and even set up your own mailing list through ListBot.
