Included in fotoBiz is an Assignment Delivery Memo as well as the Stock Delivery Memo. Use it to submit your images and check them back in, and to print all necessary forms. You can also customize and use this worksheet as a general all purpose Delivery Memo to submit and to track portfolios that you send, track cameras that are out for repairs, or any other use where you need to track items that will be returned.
Use fotoQuote to Price your Assignment Photography
Use the information in fotoQuote to help you determine your assignment photography pricing. Often times what you charge for your assignment photography will be a combination of a creative fee plus usages (whether you combine them as one or separate them is up to you). This is how fotoQuote plays an important role in your assignment photo pricing.
The tips in the fotoQuote Assignment Coach provide you with additional insight to the various types of assignment photography; Advertising, Hotel, Annual Reports, Executive Portraits, Events, etc. The Coach also includes detailed interviews with some of the top assignment shooters in the Advertising, Corporate and Editorial realms. These tell-all interviews reveal for you what they charge and how they maintain a successful photography business.
