Desperate Photographer"

How to Get Your Image Submissions Approved Every Time, Fast & Easy

 

 

If you would like to make sure your image submission get’s approved very quickly by the stock agencies “evil” QC control, and make a lot of money from your photography hobby this is going to be a he most important message you will ever read.

Here is why:

There is an unusual man who lived in the 17th century named Athanasius Kircher. He was born in 1601 and died in 1680. He was an Archeologist, Mathematician, Biologist, Physicist, Vulcanologist, and Egyptologist.

And many people consider him ...

The Last Person Alive To Know Everything
There Is To Know In The World!

Listen: If you walked into Harvard's library in 1636, you could have read every book they had. There were only 400 of them. At a pace of two books a week, you would have read 100 books a year and, finished all 400 books in four years. Today, there are >17 million books in that library. The world is very different now.

Some experts estimate the world's knowledge now doubles every 2 to 3 years. We live in a society where the daily newspaper can be so big we cannot read it all before the next day's issue comes out. This means thousands of images are needed every single day and stock agencies multiplies like rabbits.

Today I have 1,521 stock agencies in my private directory. They all have different criteria’s to accept image submissions and to make it worse, they don’t even tell you exactly what they want. It’s like a well protected secret.

All This Leads To Confusion!

No wonder the most common complaint by photographers is “they rejected my images and didn’t even tell me why”. You try to decipher what they want, wasting countless of hours to no avail. The result is you are tired, frustrated, stressed and confused.

In the forums we try to get help from like minded photographers but we just get depressed hearing the same stories repeated “they rejected my image submission but didn’t tell me why”.

But, the good news is.

There’s a Pattern in the Madness...

In early September 2007, I was desperate. About to start crying...

But I wanted revenge, after getting more rejected submissions than there's legs on a centipede I adopted a “mad scientist mentality”, analyzed and found a pattern in all the rejections I’ve gotten. I wanted revenge so bad!

I discovered, there are 22 basic reasons why your image submissions are rejected. These reasons can be broken down in 5 sub categories and finally boiled down to 3 main categories.

You see, all rejections can be mapped to either technical, commercial and legal issues.

Listen closely:

It’s a very common problem that your images are rejected because they’re too sharp. No I’m not whacko, images are rejected because he “acutance” or edge sharpness is set to “high” in the camera or in the image editing software. This is an example of a technical issue and a big, bad mistake...

But the stock agencies often turn down images, even if they are technically perfect and insanely beautiful.

If you submit an image with “Royalty Free” rights and it contains a logo or a trademark (even a tiny one) you’re making a big mistake... You and the stock agency might end up as jailbirds... No surprise the stock agencies hate images with legal issues...

Stock agencies are like money craving pigs (me too). They want to make lot’s of money fast and annihilate images that won’t sell faster than a plummeting comet. The classic supply vs. demand ideology, popularized by Adam Smith is the only language they understand.

I recommend you read Adam’s classical book “The wealth of nations” originally published back in 1776 so you get the idea. It’s good reading.

It doesn’t matter how technically perfect your silhouette of aunt Emily is with a beautiful sunset in the background. Even if she is the most wonderful aunt in Elgin, Illinois. If there’s no demand or if the supply is too high, the stock agency can’t make money on it and will annihilate lovely aunt Emily from their desk.

So all you have to do is to scrutinize your images from a technical, legal and commercial point of view and you’re good to go.

But there is a problem:

How Can I Remember All 22 Reasons for Rejections?

It’s true. It’s not easy to remember them all. I mean, you’ve got 187 images to submit and limited time... So how can you make sure you don’t fall in any of the traps set out by some cranky old QC controller?

I mean, especially beginners are often given a hard time by overzealous QC controllers. I don’t know why this is, but once you passed the initial submission, you often get images approved that would never pass in your first submission.

But Peter, is there a fast and easy way to get your images approved every single time - something like a shortcut?

You bet. It's really simple and... you’re submissions will be approved like clockwork!

But first, there is one more thing you ought to know.

It’s NOT Your Fault!

You see, how on earth can you give them what they want if they don’t tell you what they want or at best give you confusing and misleading information?

I mean...:

22 They are really secretive with submission requirements
21 They “teamed up” with the equipment manufacturers to make you believe you need the latest and greatest equipment (but you don’t)
20 They use legal and technical terms you (and most of us) don’t understand

No wonder stock photographers are griping, moaning and whining about being rejected for any reason whatsoever.

But there’s light in the tunnel. You don’t need end up like the “average” frustrated stock photographer.

Finally, I boiled down the 22 secrets to successful image submissions with clear descriptions, preventive actions and workarounds. I even added a few ways to cheat the stock agencies (maybe removed anytime soon after they get banned).

As a result it:

Quadruples Your Submission Approval Rate...
Cut’s Your Submission Preparation Time With 317%
And... Eliminates Your Frustration

Also:

More approved images means more sales and cash in your bank account
Enjoy passive income on autopilot from your hobby

You become a “guru” in the forums with “mysterious” powers
You get respected by others as your bank of approved images multiply
Eliminates guesswork and frustrations so you can focus on creative work
Makes image preparation effective and your save plenty of time

You see, I identified 22 secrets that (together) work like magic to get your image submission approved.

And all of these secrets have a unique and necessary purpose that needs to play in tune with each other to make it work.

And they are:

Secret #1: Violate this secret and you’re a hopeless amateur in the stock agencies mind (and probably blacklisted)
Secret #2: This leads to some really ugly artifacts when looking at close range. It’s super fast and easy to fix when you know about it
Secret #3: Similar to Secret #1. Stay away from this or get classified as a “nobody” by the stock agencies
Secret #4: It’s very fast and easy to fix this problem. Look in the corners and edges of the image. It’s ugly but super easy to fix!
Secret #5: Difficult for most to “detect” because it subjective. Luckily there’s a “mechanic” way to identify and fix the problem.
Secret #6: Most photographers believe this is the biggest reason for rejections but It’s NOT! I’ll show you a sneaky way to cheat the QC controllers.
Secret #7: It’s strange that so many photographers forget this when they submit images. The result? ...rejected images of course (yes, it’s that bad).
Secret #8: Most photographers think “the sharper the better” but they’re WRONG! Stop doing what you already are doing and you’re fine.
Secret #9: This is hated by the stock agencies. Why? Because you’re wasting the photo buyers time.
Secret #10: This is photography 101 but why is so many photographers still doing this mistake? Find out how to easily fix this simple problem.
Secret #11: Stock agencies are NOT fools! They will easily see through what you’re doing and swiftly reject your images if you done this...
Secret #12: Why don’t you wash away this before the QC controller sees it? It looks like a snowstorm in mid summer. Simply weird...
Secret #13: Please don’t make it look like a child did it. They might laugh at your expense.
Secret #14: It’s OK if you do it with the leaning tower of Pisa but in most cases it’s nasty and will be rejected
Secret #15: Don’t even for a second make the QC controller believe he needs new glasses! Weed out these images from your submission NOW!
Secret #16: Going to far and your images becomes “over cooked”. It’s ugly but the simple solution is just to do less!
Secret #17: Down to the fundamentals of photography 101. You’re out in the cold if you violate this fundamental rule

Secret #19: Don’t insult the stock agencies by ignoring their most basic requirement. Please understand this or...
Secret #20: WARNING: You might end up rattling the bars if you violate the law!
Secret #21: Not disclosed here
Secret #22: The Uber secret

Now you might think:

“22 Secrets to Remember, That Sounds Difficult to Master”

I understand your point but don’t worry.

It’s Fast And Easy ...

In fact, a 12 year old child will quickly learn how it works just by studying the videos, handouts and checklist i just recorded.

Let me tell you.

You’d be both surprised, disappointed and perhaps even hopping mad if you uncovered the tricks magicians use to make a rabbit jump up from a hat and other assorted stunts.

Here’s why:

Because the tricks magicians use are so bare-bone simple that you’d curse yourself why you didn’t see through the shenanigans.

It’s amazing but true!

The secrets behind successful image submissions are the same. So obvious that you’d think only a blind man could miss them once you know about them.

So that leads us firmly to a solution to your problem.

All You Need is a Simple Checklist System

That’s right, the solution is not sexy, it’s not fancy and it’s not complicated or even hard to learn.

The key is that all the 22 secrets can be grouped into similar issues that can easily be fixed at the same time.

A checklist that guides you step-by-step will guarantee that you:

Find all potential problems before you submit your images
Save time by using the most effective sequence when screening your images
Avoid making mistakes and need to redo everything

Now, to make sure you perfectly understand all secrets and how to use the checklist I've created 22 videos that not only describes each secret in detail but also suggests preventive actions and even workarounds to solve potential issues.

  Here's what you get for instant access:
A checklist (PDF) that ensures you don't forget vital things and it's a remarkable time saver
Color handouts in PDF format for all 22 video presentations (73 pages)
Stock Agency Technical Evaluation Form to help you evaluate technical requirements by the agency (PDF)
22 Short and concise videos that describes the secrets in detail including preventive and corrective actions
 

I’ve personally slaved 73 hours just to record the videos and that’s not including the hundreds of hours I've spent on research in forums and other websites in agonizing pain before I managed to decipher the secret code of successful image submissions. Not to mention the pain from all the rejected submissions I've received over time.

Considering my investment in time and how valuable this system is for you I think $127 is a rock bottom price. It means I'd only charge $1.7 per hour for the time and painstaking work it took me to record the videos.

I normally charge $155 per hour for consulting assignment so $1.7 per hour for my hard work is a steal.

Actually, I’m getting a bit agitated when thinking about how low I’m setting the price. I better stop now before I change my mind... OK, OK Peter, it's just a limited marketing test so get over it...

Anyway, the system works like crazy, the frustration vanished and commission from the agencies is finally coming to the bank... In fact, I am so confident this system will work for you that I guarantee it will...

Quadruple Your Submission Success Rate In 60 Days Or... Your Money Back!

This means if you are not overjoyed with this system including the checklist, videos and handouts, you can return it for a full 60 days and receive your money back without any questions or hassles.

However, I bet you won't do that. If you're like most people who try this system, you will experience such an improved success rate with your image submissions that you’d never look back.
