Wow Your Customers with Photo Finale Web

Have you seen the new face of Photo Finale Web yet? Photo Finale Web is our white-label photo site, and it is fresh, fast and better than ever! Users call it "easy" and "smooth" and "addictive." Addictive?! Can you say that about your current online site? Unique features like RSS, sharing and commenting will excite your social networking fans and the Picnik photo editing playground (theme park, may be more appropriate!) will captivate everyone--novice to Photoshop pro, even. Fun aside, and not to overlook the print profits, this Photo Finale has a powerful new upload and print ordering system. The two-step upload and the color-coded ordering system are a cinch. Customers can simply upload and order, or choose to join and become a member to take advantage of storage and sharing features.

The new PF has a little something for everyone, and they will stick around to explore and play and order. If you'd like to explore and play and order, we invite you to visit our demo site: http://studio110.photofinale.com.

If you do not have an online solution for taking orders, or your current site is stale and not exciting your customers, now is the time to make a switch! Sign up during May and pay one flat rate for a 6 month introductory period. As always, we will do all the site setup work, you just take a look and approve it when we're done!

If you live in the west, Dave Bell is awaiting your email or call. Midwest clients and Floridians contact Peter McCoy. Easterners, Dave MacDonald is at your service. Outside the US? Mr. Bansi Shroff is your man. Please refer to the contact page on the website for phone numbers.

Already Using Photo Finale?

Need help communicating all the new and fun things about your Photo Finale site to your customers? We have a little 4x4 flip book that shows and explains why PF is so great. This is also a perfect tool to use to train your staff.

This download contains a kiosk order you can import into Lab 50, a pdf and each page as a jpg. Click here and scroll to "Customer Communications" for the files.

What to do with this little book? Print it, mail it, email it, put it in every bag leaving your store! And, proving once again that our customers are smarter than we are, check out what Crown Camera did with it on YouTube!.

Mother's Day & Father's Day

Mother's Day is coming up on May 10th and Father's Day is June 21st...do your customers know you have lots of perfect, custom products? Mother's and Father's day folded cards are givens, but don't forget about notepads and scrapbook pages too. A scrapbook page can double as a jumbo card, and there are even some with themes for these days!

Do you offer scanning services? Offer a free scan of kids' artwork for use instead of a photo on a notepad, folded card or scrapbook page. The kiosk is so easy, the kids can even use it themselves. (Who are we kidding, they are probably better at using it than your adult customers!) You can even put out some paper and crayons in your kiddie area and have kids create art right in the store...no excuses for them forgetting to bring in their "homework" now!

Get Trained! May 7th and 8th, June 4th and 5th.

Content Training and Support Training sessions are scheduled for May (7 and 8) and June (4 and 5).

Do You Have a Great Idea? (Of Course You Do!)
