In addition to the launch of UpperCut Images â PunchStock's companion collection of exclusive high-end rights-protected images â PunchStock also introduced a complete overhaul and upgrade of its online image search technology, as well as a marketing campaign that sent six winning registrants on all-expense-paid domestic and international vacations.

"The opening of the New York office is the perfect postscript to a fantastic year," says PunchStock & UpperCut Images President Miles Gerstein. "Our new rights-managed collection, UpperCut Images, was born; we launched several successful, award-winning marketing and ad campaigns and exceeded our 2004 sales figures by 40%. I'm really looking forward to continued success in 2006."

Proximity to a major portion of its client base is among the many reasons the agency opened its New York office.
