The lead up to the holidays can be a very lucrative time for photographers, but it can also put pressure on getting product orders in on time, so your clients can have them for the holidays. One way to be very prepared is to bulk order Slip-in Mats and Studio Boxes. In Pearl or Carbon Buckram, these Boxes sell themselves. You can personalise them with your own logo on the lid. Branding products like this turns them into your silent salesmen when your clients take them home. Any unsold boxes or mats can carefully be tucked away for your next print reveal. If you’re printing your own photos, To View More >>

You've spent all year taking photographs, so why not maximise the profit on each shoot with online galleries, product sales and special offers? We spoke to retiring Queensberry account manager Michelle about her tips for holiday promotions, and marketing pointers To View More >>

Matted prints are proving to be a great sales tools within the professional photographer community, and since Sue Bryce introduced her 'reveal wall' sales technique, photographers have been jumping on this for their own studios. Our Studio Boxes and Slip-in mats are designed so you can stock up with products, and order your Queensberry prints separately. The prints will only take a few days to arrive depending on whether you want us to colour correct or not … or of course you could print your own. Either way, you'll be able to schedule a sales consultation/photo To View More >>

We released our Studio Boxes last month and they've been a hit. Some studios are choosing to order the boxes and slip-in mats separately from the prints. That means they can hold the product in the studio, and their clients can walk away from the sales session with their purchase in hand. To accommodate this, you can now purchase Studio Boxes and/or Slip-in mats in bulk, in Workspace. Studio Boxes and Mats also come a little cheaper when ordered in bulk, with the discount automatically applied at check out. Studio Boxes: The minimum quantity To View More >>
