Free Photos, Free Graphics, Free Videos, Free Audios for Marketing

Below you will find a resource for free photos and a few examples.  For the entrepreneur who is hoping to save $5 to $10, free photos are, in reality, very costly.  Hours of searching cost time which can't be recaptured.  Wasted time is the highest of all expenses. 

Free is great and my first choice.  To spend hours looking for "free" vs. spending a few dollars is what hobbyists do; not successful entrepreneurs.

How to receive free photos, images, videos and audios:

Sign up with istockphoto and receive alerts about the latest photos and specially highlighted lightboxes.  Links to free files are included at the very bottom of the "Tip of the Month" emails from iStockphoto.

Yes.  There are terms and conditions.

Yes.  You will re-analyze how you spend hours looking for a resource when a photo can be purchased for $1.50 or less.

The offer for free photos, videos and audios is temporary and if you miss it, the opportunity expires.  As new photos are offered, the older ones are removed from the free list.  You snooze, you lose.

Here are samples from this month's free photos on iStockphoto:
