Free Microstock Keywording & Uploading (seriously…)

Posted on October 6th, 2009 in General, keywording, lookstat, microstock | 5 Comments »

We are offering to keyword and upload 25 images for the first 25 photographers to fill out our contact form in response to this offer as a way of letting you try out our Back Office Services.

There is no obligation to continue using our services after this initial set. We’re doing this because we’re proud of the quality of service we deliver and we’re confident that once you try us out, you’ll seriously consider using us again in the future.

What You Get

  • 25 images keyworded with IPTC Title, Description and 30-50 keywords (you’ll be able to download keyworded images from our system for your archives)
  • Uploading, attachment of releases and final submission for these 25 images at up to 10 microstock sites
  • Firsthand experience of how LookStat Back Office can help you focus on creating great images rather than the mechanics of getting them online.

Get Started By Filling out this contact form >>

PS: There really is no catch and no credit card/paypal info required. We hope you’ll continue afterwards, but it is fine if you don’t.

New Homepage and New Services for Photographers

Posted on September 16th, 2009 in General, lookstat, microstock, screenshots | 12 Comments »

We have been hard at work and a little too quiet (ok… way too quiet) about what we’ve been up to, but we’re finally ready to start talking about the features and services we have been developing. We just rolled out an update to our home page to reflect a new set of services that we have been providing to busy stock photographers for the past few months.

You Create the Images – We Do the Rest

We are now offering a full menu of Back Office services for stock photographers – keywording, uploading, submission & MR management – for a flat fee per image. Photographers are free to pick and choose whichever services they need, from the full package to selective elements based on their own workflow and requirements.

LookStat - Microstock Keywording, Uploading, Submission & Analytics

We have been providing these services for several months now to a core group of customers but are excited to open them up to a broader audience.

Why Offer These Services?

We believe that the workload associated with activities that aren’t directly tied to creating great images continues to go up and that this isn’t a great use of a creative individual’s time.

We’re committed to reducing friction and making life better for photographers and our goal with our Back Office services is to allow photographers to focus on doing what they do best, which is creating great images. We provide a flexible, cost-effective way to take care of the rest.

What About Analytics?

New feature development on analytics had taken a back seat to getting our services offering built out but we have added to our team and are back to active development on that feature. We will be announcing some enhancements to analytics in the next couple of weeks. We’re really excited about what’s coming and we hope you will be as well.

As always, feedback and questions are welcome. If you’re interested in learning more about our Back Office services, please contact us and we’ll get in touch right away.
