2. OUR FOCUS
TODAY, TECHNOLOGY ALLOWS EVERYONE TO AUTHOR QUALITY CONTENT. THE TERM ‘UGC’ NO
LONGER REFERS TO GRAINY, POORLY CAPTURED IMAGERY - BUT STYLISED, CRAFTED NUGGETS OF
SOMEONE’S PERSONAL EXISTENCE. IF EVERYONE IS A PHOTOGRAPHER NOW, WHY ARE MARKETERS
STILL UTILISING INAUTHENTIC STOCK IMAGES FROM POOR QUALITY SOURCES?
WE BELIEVE THAT QUALITY USER GENERATED CONTENT SHOULD BE EASY TO FIND AND EASY TO LICENSE.
THE COMMS TASK FOR AGENCIES IS SHIFTING FROM A FILM-CENTRIC ONE TO SOMETHING THAT IS ABOUT
TELLING REAL STORIES, IN REAL WAYS, TO MAKE PEOPLE FEEL REAL EMOTIONS.
AGENCIES TRYING TO TELL REAL STORIES NEED A RELIABLE SOURCE OF REAL IMAGES CREATED BY REAL
PEOPLE TO HELP CONVEY THEIR IDEAS.
CONTENT CREATORS DESERVE TO BE PAID FAIRLY, THAT’S WHY WE GIVE 75% OF THE COST STRAIGHT TO THEM.

8. TESTIMONIALS
"I BELIEVE LOBSTER IS BUILDING AN HONEST PLACE FOR CREATIVE PROFESSIONALS TO
ACCESS SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT AND REWARD PEOPLE."
BEN MAHER, MASHABLE
“THIS IS A PERFECT TOOL FOR NOT ONLY CREATIVES, BUT AGENCIES IN GENERAL. WE
HAVE ONE GOAL - TO GO AFTER REAL. NO ONE IS INTERESTED IN FAKE COMMS. WE
NEED TO ENGAGE WITH REAL TO EMULATE IT. STOCK IMAGERY ISN’T REAL. STOCK IS
DEAD, AS FAR AS I’M CONCERNED.”
RENWICK MCASLAN, BBH
