[quote style=”1″ author=”JACKIE HEDA, CMI / MEDICAL & SCIENTIFIC ILLUSTRATION”]I have had an ad in the Sourcebook since the second edition. So for me, the track record speaks for itself, and for my business and the ever evolving marketplace, choosing not to run an ad in the MISB is not an option!
The value of having a portfolio in front of a wide audience of qualified buyers in the US and beyond, can not be over stated. The Sourcebook is not only a printed directory that is used by many of my clients, it is a broad based marketing tool that includes online marketing through medillsb.com. In addition to your printed ad in the Sourcebook, each subscriber can upload 50 images/animations per page as their online portfolio on medillsb.com.
When I ask contacts “how did you find me?”, the response is most often ‘through the online resources of the Sourcebook‘.[/quote]
[quote style=”1″ author=”MONICA ALVERCA / ASSOCIATE ART DIRECTOR / TIME INC.“]I use the Directory of Illustration as a reference each time I need to assign projects or suggest an illustrator to a co-worker. It’s a must-have tool.[/quote]
[quote style=”1″ author=”PIPER SMITH / LINDGREN & SMITH“]The Directory of Illustration is a very cost-effective way for us to promote our artists. We get great work from our presence in the book and a lot of referral traffic from DirectoryofIllustration.com. The staff is wonderful to work with and the web portfolio is easy to maintain. We love the Directory program.[/quote]
[quote style=”1″ author=”CHRIS PETERS / SENIOR ART PRODUCER / COLLE + MCVOY“]I think AtEdge is the best source out there right now for photography. You do a great job keeping everything fresh, with a wonderful selection of talent that is well versed in the craft. I use the website a lot – especially the specialty index… and everyone at our agency just loves the little books![/quote]
[quote style=”1″ author=”TRISHA MASTERSON / IMAGE MANAGER / OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS“]The Directory of Illustration is an excellent source for finding artists. I refer to it often when projects are starting up and I tag artists for future possibilities as well.[/quote]
[quote style=”1″ author=”MORGAN BRAMLET / CREATIVE DIRECTOR / AMERICAN COLLEGE OF CARDIOLOGY“]The Directory of Illustration is an extremely valuable resource for finding the right artist for our projects. It allows me to browse art quickly, tag for later reference and then share it with our team.[/quote]
[quote style=”1″ author=”MIKE DAITCH / GROUP CREATIVE DIRECTOR / DIGITAS“]The Directory is one of the first places I turn when developing a project’s visual style. I do a lot of digital work, but I still prefer the tactile nature of the Directory — flipping through pages, it’s easy to share or tag images for future reference.[/quote]
[quote style=”1″ author=”TODD BUCK / MEDICAL ILLUSTRATOR”]The Medical Illustration Sourcebook goes to medical art buyers who do more than click the “like” button. They hire. Based on my return on investment with the Sourcebook, I will continue to advertise in it. One phone call from a company you may have never heard of can change your work flow trajectory for years. I say this as I am working on a large project from a company I initially connected with via the Sourcebook.[/quote]
[quote style=”1″ author=”YVONNE SILVER / ART BUYING MANAGER / SCHOLASTIC EDUCATION“]The Directory offers quality talent and a variety of styles, making my search task a pleasure.[/quote]
[quote style=”1″ author=”CAROLYN MCCLAIN / DEPUTY ART DIRECTOR / CRAIN’S NEW YORK BUSINESS“]I find it easier to find an artist using print compared to online. Usually I find artists in the Directory and then look them up online to get more information on them.[/quote]
