| Professional Tips from S. Kelly Photography |
Over 10,000 professional photographers are now using Collages.net! Many of our photographers incorporate Collages.net into their studios in unique, creative, and revenue-generating ways. Professional Tips is where our photographers share the many ways they are maximizing the tools offered by Collages.net.
Guest books are being used very successfully by our photographers for Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, senior albums, baby books, and other types of events. Here is a story from Kris and Scott Kelly of S. Kelly Photography about how they are using them to book more brides.
Guest Books - our Brides LOVE them!
"When we heard about Collages.net’s Guest Books, we knew they were going to be hot and we had to have a sample now. A guest book is a beautiful collection of 10-15 of the client's favorite engagement images that we take for each couple crafted into a leather bound album. The guest book features an image on the left and a blank page on the right for wedding guests to leave their warm comments. We placed our order the day that Jeff from Collages.net told us about them. He walked us through the whole ordering process. He is so good to us!
When we received this hot new product, we couldn't open the box fast enough! We had to get our hands on it because we knew it would increase our wedding sales immediately – and it did! We now sell Collages.net Guest Books to 99% of our weddings clients!
How? We show them to everyone! We have one on display in our studio and everyone thumbs though it. Moms, seniors, brides, and everyone who enters our studio – they all love it! We also take it to every event we attend, especially weddings. We pass the guest book around so everyone can get a glimpse of the coolest thing to hit the photography industry since the digital camera. When people can see, touch, and feel your products, they want one of their own and they will buy them if they are a quality product. Collages.net Guest Books are the BEST in the industry!
When a bride calls to inquire about our wedding photography, we never give a price over the phone. We always set up a wedding consultation so our prospective brides and grooms can meet us and see what we have to offer. It's too hard to compare apples to apples in the photography industry; you have to sell yourself and your business to your brides. We go over all the products in our packages and "stack them up" ...literally! When the consultation is finished, our brides have a stack of proof books, 8x10 prints, “Thank You” cards, Mothers books, a 16x20 canvas or gallery wrap, the guest book, and a beautifully designed storybook album all in a pile in front of them on the table.
We always start the stack with the guest book, which shows a stunning and romantic engagement session down on the Mississippi River Walk. You have to have pride in your work and show the guest book like it's a fine diamond. Get your brides excited about it from the first glimpse. She will want this treasured keepsake instead of just a plain old spiral book that people write their names in!
If your bride falls in love with the guest book, she will also want to have a storybook album to match! Your wedding sales will soar when you sell in sets like this and your brides will love you for making their wedding package full of great products.
Don't do anything else today until you place your order for a guest book! Pick your favorite and most stunning wedding couple and showcase them in a studio sample guest book. Then, show it to EVERYONE! You will quickly see your wedding calendar fill up and your brides smile!
It's all in your presentation and how you have a passion for what you do. If you love what you do, it will show and your couples will hire you for the most exciting day of their lives!"
