PhotoPublishing'ss new website gives businesses a chance to experiment with creating personalized photo products (http://www.photopublishing.net/OurProducts/)at the company'ss model online storefront.
PhotoPublishing provides branded e-commerce sites (http://www.photopublishing.net/WhatYouGet/)for businesses, including photo
studios and labs, that want to offer a private line of photo products to their clientele. The custom shopping sites are powered by photo-publishing software (http://www.photopublishing.net/)originally developed in house at parent company SyNet Media for use by photographers ordering from photo labs.
We provide ready-to-go websites and manufacturing services for businesses of any size, small or large, that would benefit from adding personalized photo products to customer offerings,
said Eric R. Hegwood, president of SyNet Media. Sometimes small companies don'st have the necessary staff or aren'st even sure what software is needed for e-commerce sites, so we make one
for them.
The new site, located at www.photopublishing.net, offers a 30-day free trial for anyone who signs up for an account. Potential clients can
make photo products (http://www.photopublishing.net/user/registerphotopublishing.aspxSponsorID=53)on a model site with no
charges other than for products actually ordered. Users can upload photos to private accounts and experience the full design capabilities of the software, the auto-fill feature that fills
a book with photos within seconds and the send-to-friend feature that e-mails links to finished projects to friends for viewing and ordering. No purchase is necessary. There is no fee to
sign up for the account, no obligation and no cancellation requirement.
We developed the software because we knew photo labs had a need for it and then realized that we could brand it as an e-commerce platform for any business interested in selling
personalized photo items online, Hegwood said.
Clients, including Fortune 500 companies, are already using the software with positive results. Before finding PhotoPublishing, one nationally known retailer searched extensively for a
suitable Web browser solution that would allow clients to view proofs and order memory books. PhotoPublishing'ss software fit the company'ss needs and is being used to successfully
fulfill client orders.
They were looking all over the country and all over the world for software, and they didn'st want to build their own, Hegwood said. They told us, 'sNone of the others were as flexible;
none of the others were what we were looking for.'s Photographers looking for studio proofing software will appreciate the convenience of e-mailing links that let clients view their books
online. Customers can preview and virtually page through their photo books before ordering and even e-mail invitations that allow family and friends to view and order the finished
products.
PhotoPublishing sites can stand alone or mirror the look of a company'ss existing website. Customers see only the site owner'ss brand name and logo throughout the site and on the
customized packing slips that accompany each order. Site owners are involved to whatever extent they wish, whether they want to approve each order or maintain a hands-off approach.
PhotoPublishing site owners can enjoy complete freedom from order administration, Hegwood said. We specialize in expeditiously turning digital images into top-quality photo books and
products that exceed the expectations of our clients and their customers.
