Welcome to FotoBiz 2.0 the most powerful, affordable and easy to use photo business management software available. It is designed expressly for the freelance photographer. It is a carefully designed tool to help the independent one or two-person freelance photo business deal with the day-to-day business responsibilities that often get overlooked.
No matter what business programs you've looked at before, you've never seen anything like fotoBiz. FotoBiz was conceived in the 80's, and with this latest version, fotoBiz 2.0 has become an indispensable tool for dealing with images in the digital age. FotoBiz gives you the tools you need to get paid fairly and to excel in your business!
Quickly and easily create stock photography quotes, assignment estimates, invoices and more. FotoBiz takes just about everything you hate about the business end of your profession and DOES IT FOR YOU in a simple and elegant way. You look professional and responsible, even when you're pressed for time.
FotoBiz is about your images, your
clients and paperwork. FotoBiz has many powerful features. One of the most
powerful is the imageLog, which gives you an easy way to keep track of
your photos. The image management capability helps you to quickly locate
an image that fits your client’s needs. If you can't find an image, you
can't license it.
In fotoBiz 2.0, there's a keywording tool called the Keyword Composer™, a controlled vocabulary that simplifies the process of keywording images. You no longer have to rely on a complicated coding system to organize and file images. There are also Thumbnail Submission Forms in the fotoBiz imageLog, including digital delivery memos, and Copyright submission forms.
With fotoBiz you
create and track photographic assignments, stock photography submissions
and invoicing. You can easily create stock and assignment delivery memos,
quotes, estimates and invoices. With a click of a button you can send statements
to your clients at the end of the month to help you get paid on time.
You need to get your paperwork done as quickly, accurately and professionally as possible so that you can get your assignment or stock submission to your client and then get paid. FotoBiz creates over 100 documents, forms, labels and reports. Thirty letter templates help you deal with contracts, submissions, late or lost images, collections, thank you notes, and more.
Consistent communication with clients
is one of the main keys to success. The correct paperwork not only makes
your job look professional, but it also helps protect you and your client
from misunderstandings about what you are actually selling or licensing
and what your client is paying for. The RightsWriter™ and DescriptionBuilder
features built into fotoBiz make this easy to do.
There is a Mass Mailings section and a Calendar
section so you can schedule future mailings to the same group.
FotoBiz also comes with fotoQuote Pro 5 built-in*. FotoQuote is the industry standard photo price guide for stock and assignment photography.
FotoQuote, a photo price calculator, includes pricing and negotiation information you can use to increase your earning power. By studying the negotiating techniques outlined in the fotoQuote Coach, and applying the principles when you negotiate, you'll discover you can earn much more than you thought possible for your photos. You won't find this information anywhere else.
*So that you can have the most up-to-date pricing information, fotoQuote Pro 6 is bundled as a standalone with new orders of fotoBiz 2.0.
