Budget optimization and pricing packages
Image licenses can quickly get expensive, especially if every project is purchased separately from different providers. This is where our independence pays off: since we are not tied to a single stock agency, we always look for the cheapest provider with the best price-performance ratio for you. That way, experience shows you can save considerable amounts on image licensing with Strandperle – without compromising on quality.
Before we begin the research, we agree with you on the scope and the cost framework. So from the start you know what budget needs to be planned. After image selection you receive a detailed quote with all items. That way there are no unpleasant surprises, and you can bill your clients cleanly.
If a desired motif blows the cost framework, we search free of charge for high-quality alternatives that fit the budget. We know the pricing structures of the different stock agencies in detail and know where to find comparable motifs at significantly lower conditions. Beyond that, we negotiate on your behalf – whether it's volume discounts, package prices or individual special agreements.
For customers with recurring image needs, we put together individual pricing packages. Whether it's monthly quotas, project-based agreements or multi-year framework contracts – we find the solution that fits your needs and your budget. Thanks to our purchasing volume and our long-standing partnerships, we can negotiate conditions that would usually not be accessible to you as an individual buyer.
Handling
You receive one single, clear invoice from us – regardless of how many different agencies we licensed from on your behalf. This simplifies your bookkeeping considerably and additionally saves time in internal processing. Licensee and invoice recipient can be listed separately and adjusted flexibly at any time.
No separate accounts needed. You don't need your own accounts with the various stock agencies. We take over the entire procurement process and deliver the high-resolution files within the shortest time by e-mail or download link. That means less administrative effort for you and faster results.
Our budget optimization doesn't only apply to images. For videos prices can quickly swing by a factor of ten between premium providers and alternative libraries – we find the right source with the right license tier (Standard, Extended, Editorial) and the right distribution area.
For music and sound effects we check whether a production music library can get you to the goal more cheaply than a classic sync license. For typefaces and fonts we make sure you don't over-license: a properly tailored webfont or desktop license is usually significantly cheaper than the standard enterprise package. Especially with moving image and audio, price differences between providers can be substantial.
