Clear communication, rapid order fulfillment!

In an age when the media are bombarding target audiences with high quality digital output, the traditional forms of visual communication are becoming obsolete. This is especially true in the field of book production. I am the operational head of publishing at MBD Group, New Delhi, and my responsibilities include overseeing content creation, illustration and design. These are critical areas needing the highest quality inputs, especially where visuals are concerned.

To my surprise and delight, I came across a large percentage of very high resolution, eminently desirable images when I surfed the ImagesBazaar.com website. All I had to do was to select what I needed. A short, painless process later, my order was in my possession. Clear communication, rapid order fulfillment and superb after sales follow through by courteous, efficient staff rounded off an extraordinarily satisfying and glitch-free shopping experience!

The quest for right images ends here!

ImagesBazaar is a boon for India’s advertising world. A world, where speed is the essence these days and clients hardly give time to shoot the relevant pictures. It has made creative director’s and art director’s job easy.

Some look out for visuals that go with their concept or the head line. Whereas some hunt for the relevant visual first and then create the concept or write the headline accurately matching the visual.  ImagesBazaar is good for both kind.

- Rommel Mudra Rakshasa, National Creative Director, Interads Advertising (P) Ltd.

Quality, variety and cost effective

For anyone belonging to the advertising fraternity, access to good quality images is critical. ImagesBazaar has delivered time and again. ImagesBazaar has depth and breadth of expertise to offer a rich variety of Indian images whose look and feel are unparalleled.

Quality, which is the key in our profession, is a distinct highlight of the collection at ImagesBazaar. A good majority of the images, nearly 80% I would say, are photographed with relevant emphasis on good lighting. Multiple expressions of the models featured are a boon to our art directors, who can choose from a wide variety of images. Being able to do so in double quick time is especially useful given the tough deadlines that they need to meet very often.

Again, ImagesBazaar offers very competitive rates across various segments. This makes them affordable even to the small and medium level advertisers. ImagesBazaar offers genuine resolution of each image, be it medium, high or XXL sizes. It may be pertinent to add here that ImagesBazaar is the only image bank where every call is a local call, notwithstanding where one calls from. This exclusive feature makes things doubly convenient.

Essentially then, ImagesBazaar is one of the best things that has happened to advertising professionals. An extensive range of good quality Indian images makes it a great site to visit each time.

Apt pictures just at a mouse click

Like any other creative department, Radiant’s creative team has hectic schedules to meet deadlines for any assignment. The task usually involves hunting for locations, models and more. The hard work of 4-5 days could also go waste if on the day of shoot, weather conditions go adverse.

One fine morning we came across a web banner of Imagesbazaar website. Just a single click had all the answers to our problems. A stock agency with stock images on all major subjects and that too with Indian faces.

I would personally like to share my experience with two of our clients.

A real estate giant - Pacifica Companies, wanted to depict Indian lifestyle with  an Indian touch. The company was expecting us to go in for a photo shoot at different locations with a big budget and it was expected to be stretched over a week’s period. At that hour, images from ImagesBazaar not only surprised my client but also helped us to achieve the objective to get Indian images shot in Indian locations with the Indian touch.

Another client Green Mania Tea was apprehensive of stock images.  I presented a layout with images from ImagesBazaar and the smile of satisfaction on the client’s face gave us a go ahead instantly.

Client satisfaction, which is our prime motto, was achieved within no time, thanks to ImagesBazaar.

Picture Perfect!

A picture is worth a thousand words or so said one creative little bird.

So here’s a story of some great-quality pics, read more to find out where you can get a fix;

There was a time not so long ago

When an advertising campaign required pretty pictures to show

So the designers, copywriters, managers and marketing dudes

All came together and put away their little feuds

And they surfed, and they searched and many a site did they see

But alas, as well as alack, not one turned out to be the key

Disheartened and dispirited, they sat in a gloom, When suddenly they heard a great, sonic boom!

“Listen up people,” a voice echoed through the screen

They looked around in fear and turned their ears towards the voice unseen

Was it the voice of God? In wonder they thought

And frantically clicked and clucked, not a bit but a lot

“Have no fear,” it said all eloquent and nice,

“You’ve hit picture paradise, by a scroll of your computers’ mice!”

Curious and fascinated, the foursome wondered what was in store

When up popped a web page with a pic that garnered a perfect score!

ImagesBazaar it said on the bar and threw up pics with an admirable zest

One prettier than the next, it was a virtual treasure chest!

The designer was happy, the copywriter happier,

But the manager screwed up his nose and waited for the price to appear

And in no time a page opened and up came the cost

One look at it and he too was lost

Great pictures at good prices was more than they could ask for

And so goes the story of ImagesBazaar who found a way through many a creative door!

- Yogesh Ponkshe, Associate Creative Director, Quadrum Solution Pvt. Ltd.

The perfect family picture

It was Friday, 5.30 pm and I was winding up my assigned work. Most of my colleagues had already left the office; I was also in a hurry to reach home. But suddenly I got a call from Ramesh, our Accounts Manager and he said, “Could I ask you a favour as you are the only person at the office?” “Please go ahead” I said. He responded, “Rahul, my client wants to beef up new financing schemes through its existing outdoor sites. Please make a few layouts for the hoarding without changing the headline. It will be better if you can use happy Indian families to compliment the headline.”

I was a bit upset as I wanted to reach home early this weekend. But I knew I had to do it. The only question was how quickly and effectively I could do it. I opened the file of the ad and started making changes in the layout.

Now except the “Indian family picture” everything else was in place. I wanted to save my time. I got an idea. I logged on to www.ImagesBazaar.com and typed FAMILY on the search bar. As soon as I clicked on the “Search” button, over 6000+ results appeared on the screen! After browsing 2-3 pages, I saved 15 images and to my amazement every picture was worth using. I made five options using different pictures and sent it to Ramesh. It took me just 20 minutes to complete the entire process.

Ramesh appreciated me for the prompt and accurate work. I am thankful to ImagesBazaar.com for simplifying my life and helping me reach home on time!

Simple yet awesome

“When I was young, I would listen to the radio; waiting for my favorite songs. When they played, I’d sing along. It made me smile…” - Carpenters

My first reaction was, ‘Images what?’

The reply was, ‘It’s ImagesBazaar. It’s an image bank website from where you can purchase images of your liking. This was from one of my friends who is a graphic artist.

Frankly speaking, I was not very convinced at the beginning. After a hard day’s work, I had some ‘time’ to surf the net. I typed in the name ImagesBazaar. I recall it took me just four minutes from being an ‘okay okay’ surfer to a ‘Yeah! That’s the stuff I wanted!’ surfer. Generally, I leave office within 9:30 pm to 10:00 pm. On that particular day, I left at about 12:45 am. Isn’t it simple!

I feel really sorry to elaborate my experience with Imagesbazaar within 300-500 words! It’s just not enough! I can only summarize that with the support from ImagesBazaar, my satisfied clients are Ansal Housing, Sintex, Amaron Batteries, LIC, The Olympia Group, JRG, Parnasree; to name a few. No hustle for typing in particular categories; it’s already there, by your side. Like your friend. Simple.

ImagesBazaar’s services are notable. There was an instance when I was in a rush. The images were provided to me so that I could meet my deadline even before the payment to ImagesBazaar was made. My life was made easy!

The bottom-line is this:

When I open the site, I flip through the pages; waiting for my favorite picture to open… and when it opens… it makes me smile…

- Partha Pratim Roy, Creative Director, TRISYS Communications

ImagesBazaar – an Agency’s Delight

In my experience if you are looking for Indian images your search ends with ImagesBazaar. When it came to images, it was always a challenge to source those relevant to the Indian context, but from the past couple of years, thanks to ImagesBazaar this problem has been suitably addressed.

Earlier, there was little choice but to depend on foreign images and the invariable re-creation later, which took not just a lot of time but also a compromise on the final outcome. Thankfully, with an impressive bank of quality Indian images it’s been a relief, especially with clients today being very particular on the Indianness of their communication. Over the years we have been associated with ImagesBazaar and we are very happy with our experience and look forward to the same service quality in the future.

The positive experience is not just about an ever increasing choice of Indian images but the entire process - right from ease of finding an image online, to the un-complicated pricing structure or the ordering process and the response time that makes it such a pleasure working with ImagesBazaar. Last but not the least; the customer service executives have been most helpful, making our interaction a pleasure at all times.

To sum it up it’s a delight working with ImagesBazaar and we wish them continued success in their endeavors.

Get wowed by the Quality & Variety of Images

I have been using ImagesBazaar for last one year and for me it’s a one stop for any kind of images. It’s an image bank which is a synonym for Quality & Variety in stock Image industry.

What clicks my mind when I think of ‘Images Bazaar’?

- It’s picturesque images, sensitive pictures, lifestyle pictures and most importantly ‘Indian’ pictures.

Previously, finding creative Indian images for our ever-demanding clients was arduous. Frantically search the books, hunting the net was an ordeal… and getting Indian images was just impenetrable. The images lacked the right mood, were short of emotions and the most pivotal facet… the pictures were ‘just not Indian’.

The money, time & energy squandered on shoots to get ‘just the right frame’ were another torment; sometimes even the end results being unimpressive.

Images Bazaar put an end to my ordeal. A ‘Sense of belonging’ is the first impression, Images Bazaar imprinted on my mind. An ideal search engine for the right kind of images; with clever compositions, striking color schemes, better clarity, & thoughtful keywords is the main USP of Images Bazaar.

A prominent name in the advertising industry; their inclusive collection includes diverse photographs on different subjects. Be it wedding, diwali, business or any subjective picture, you get to the perfect image instantly.

Call their executive any time of the working hour. They are always resourceful, understand the agency need better and revert back in the shortest possible time. Any agency would like to be associated with them.

Someone has very well said, “When you think something, you think in picture. You don't think a thought in words. You think a picture that expresses your thought”! All through, Images Bazaar has portrayed the same picture splendidly!

One-stop shop for Indian images

Imagesbazaar is a one stop shop for people who are in the communication business. There is a plethora of images of different categories and if you are searching for Indian images, then this is the right place for you.

Before the onset of this Indian stock image agency, there were not many Indian faces on the Net, and so there was a void which this site managed to fill. The site was a great help to us in the campaigns related to PSU Banks. 

The stock photography service satisfies every need of the clients by offering quality images at competitive prices. Imagesbazaar manages to capture the essence of Indian feelings and sensibilities, thus making the site a hot favourite among our creative team.

The most salient feature of Imagesbazaar is the high level of communication the images evoke. Almost all of their images seem to say something, thus making our job easier.

Their picture quality is amazing, and delivery time is also spot-on. It is no wonder so many campaigns have images from this site. Also, the site is constantly upgraded. Every time you log on you will find new additions and fresh faces.

With innovation, excellence and thorough understanding of the way the Indian heart beats. ImagesBazaar provides a doorway for everyone to peep and explore. So the next time you want a picture that speaks a thousand words, you know where to look for.

- Deepak Naphade, Creative Director, Interpublicity Pvt. Ltd.

Imagesbazaar.com is a place where any question can be answered

They say the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach and the way to win a creative pitch is through Imagesbazaar.com.

My relationship with Imagesbazaar is like a family relationship. They give me not only ideas to improve my brand but also take me to a new level of thinking.  I appreciate their prompt services and the wide variety of images which are there for every occasion. My clients whom I deal with are also very happy since they get Indian images which is hardly available on any other site and their message gets communicated to the right target audience.

I hope to have a long term relationship with a site which has true value.
