I gave my honest take on THAT nearly-$300 massager that won a robotics design award, and I’ll never rave about a toy that sounds like a dolphin when you clench around it — no matter how many influencers post smiling selfies with it.

And for some real world inspiration, give Henry Finn's story on creating Luminous a read:

Hi, I’m Henryand I’m a real live human being. I run a few different businesses on the surface, but they are all essentially the same business of storytelling through video and content marketing (in creative direction, producing, and consulting roles).

The bulk of my work for big brands is commercial producing and creative direction but I also do full-stack brand development for startups (these clients are usually CEOs, CMOs, or marketing directors of startups, series A, B, and above).

With Luminous US I mostly service produce commercials for giant global brands like Samsung, Kia, Walmart, etc. In this role, I work with agencies around the world as a contractor or as a white-labeled done-for-you that allows agencies to retain their clients by servicing them “in-house.”

Now that I’ve successfully built and launched an educational platform I plan on doing this across multiple industries, startups being #1. So stay tuned to Startup Video Marketing, you’ll definitely see some explosive growth in the next 6 months, I promise you.

Also, I want to thank you, Pat, for building this platform because there are many insights I’ve taken from the stories and applied them to my own growth strategy. In fact, I think I only subscribe to two or three newsletters in total and yours is one of them. I think the only other one I subscribe to is Adweek.

You guys rock!

Hi, my name is Serban Enache and this story is about Stockfreeimages, a Royalty Free stock photo platform that was launched in 2012 as a free image resource. We started in 2000 with Dreamstime.com, one of today’s top 10 stock photo agencies globally and later on launched StockFreeImages as a spinoff for designers looking for free stock photos that are safe to use.

While Stockfreeimages offers unlimited free access to web size downloads, high-resolution downloads may require a small fee which allows us to reward the contributors. Unlike other free image resources, any charge for high-resolution downloads is fairly split with the content creators, as it should be.

In December 2020, the site had 1.3 million registered members and more than 2 million free stock images and illustrations from 56,303 photographers. We add fresh new titles every day and we have images for all needs and budgets, but mainly for free.
