Dear Subscriber,
 
Package prints can be very profitable.

Each fall millions of children pose for their individual class pictures...and nearly every parent buys at least one package.

Large schools are often tied in to national studios, making it tough for independent pros.

But, the good news is that there are hundreds of smaller public, private and religious schools that would prefer to deal with a reputable local photographer like you.

All you'll need to get into this lucrative business is a background and a set of studio flash units.

We can help! Our laboratory will provide you with finished package prints that are far better than the ones from chain studios...at low, competitive prices that guarantee you a good profit.

Our Package Print System:
    • We provide you with free, easy-to-use online ROES templates for all the various print sizes you'll need to structure your offerings.
    • You'll shoot dozens of individual portraits in front of a single background but be able to provide a full array of print sizes and packages.
    • You'll be able to crop and order with our ROES software in just minutes.
    • We'll apply individual corrections to your images if you have "missed" or uneven exposures so that you'll still get good prints.
    • The Bottom Line: You'll be in a perfect position to compete with even the largest national studios.
Let us help you make the profits you deserve!


Best regards,
Dale

Package Prints


Creating Profitable Print Packages Is Easy!

These are just a few of the templates you can use as your "building blocks":

8 x 10
8" x 10"


2 - Up 5" x 7"













4 - Up 4" x 6"

8 - Up Wallet Sized Prints
















  • Offer "packages" of different print sizes. We suggest offering three different print packages at gradually increasing prices.
  • Package prints sell well to varied markets:
    • Class photos (their traditional use)
    • Family portraits for churches
    • Communions (in the Spring)
    • Reunions, dances, group events
  • Excellent mark-ups with our low $1.50 per 8x10 print unit cost.
  • Fast lab ordering (Under 2 minutes per subject...even faster with our Packager* system for higher volume studios)

Package prints produce big profits based on volume. From a single day's shooting you'll sell a large number of prints.

We give you the technical "leverage" and quality that makes this an easy way to make money.

If you have school contracts lined up we're ready to serve you now. If not, consider promoting package prints to local schools and churches for the Spring shooting season.

Our job; to make you look good and to give you an easy way to get the best package prints in America.

Please call us at (800) 327-1776 if you have any questions. We're here to help!

I hope you find these ideas useful.



Best regards,
Dale

*Our Packager system let's you pre-design your various print packages. Then, you just drag-and-drop your images into a single template saving even more post-production time. Please call our Customer Service department if you are doing a large volume of prints and we'll set up your account so that you can use Packager. Click here to see instructions on how to create custom packages with Packager. Here are specifications and requirements for our package prints.
