So, which products should you aim to include?<\/p>\n<p>The top three groups of photo products to consider:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Photobook<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>2. Calendars<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>3. Canvases and photo gadgets<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As already mentioned, photobooks are immensely popular. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.printingnews.com\/article\/12089393\/the-future-of-photos\">According to the associate director of InfoTrends\u2019 Consumer Imaging Group, David Haueter, these items alone are expecting to <strong>sell over 53 million annual units in the United States by 2019<\/strong><\/a>. It\u2019s easy to see why: they can be used to memorialise the likes of weddings, holidays, birthdays and special occasions.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><span style=\"color: #2fd28e;\">Photobooks are immensely popular (&#8230;), these items alone are expecting to sell over 53 million annual units<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Calendars, likewise, are very popular due to their practical use, but you should remember that such products are only needed once a year, selling the most between December and January. Haueter also suggests that calendars&#8217; sales are levelling out so, while they\u2019re not increasing like photobooks, they can still become a\u00a0reliable\u00a0part of your product portfolio.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Canvas prints are also quite popular and far less seasonal than calendars.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Photo gadgets, such as shirts, cups and mouse-mats, can be cheap to produce and are highly sought after in many areas. There are a large number of businesses out there who want such personalised products to give away to staff, customers and prospective clients.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Acquire_The_Technology\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #2fd28e;\">Step 2: Acquire The Technology<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In order to start your photo product business online you need three things:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. E-Commerce Store<\/strong><br \/>\nAn e-commerce store to let your clients find you, browse your products and make the payment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. <a href=\"https:\/\/getprintbox.com\/features\/photo-printing-software\">Photo printing software<\/a> and editors<\/strong><br \/>\nDedicated software and an online editor allow your customers to create their own products.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Infrastructure<\/strong><br \/>\nInfrastructure to host the website, templates and your clients&#8217; design.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It can be argued there\u2019s no other way to sell photo products than an e-commerce store. It\u2019s an increasingly preferred method of purchasing customized products. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.futuresource-consulting.com\/reports\/report\/r\/futuresource-western-europe-consumer-photobook-market-track-report\/i\/310330\"><strong>In 2014, 93.9% of custom<\/strong> <strong>photobooks<\/strong> <strong>were ordered online \u2013 a trend that is seemingly growing each year.<\/strong><\/a> In an ecommerce store, your customers can select a product and start work customising it, in addition to being able to make the payment.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><span style=\"color: #2fd28e;\">In 2014, 93.9% of custom photobooks were ordered online<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">An online editor is a core feature behind every online photo product business. It allows your customers to upload their images, make changes and see what the final product will look like before it gets sent to print. It is essential to have a beautiful, modern editor that is pleasant to use and look at. Creating an editor from scratch with your own IT team, or using freelance developers, could be very time-consuming as these tools are very complex.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This may sound like a lot of work, so let the industry take care of this for you. There are some great editors out there and you can readily find one at the right cost or plan for you. The choice is very wide &#8211; from companies, like Printbox, offering all-in-one solutions including store, online editor and infrastructure, to DIY plugins for the most popular e-commerce platforms, such as\u00a0Magento or Presta.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Set_Up_Your_Photo_Product_Business\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #2fd28e;\">Step 3. Set Up Your Photo Product Business<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This step sounds like a lot of work, but it\u2019s much less daunting than you might think. Once you\u2019ve found the right vendor, <strong>you can be printing and selling in as little as 2 weeks<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Communication is key<\/strong> here and you should work with a company that maintains regular contact, as they\u2019ll essentially act as your company\u2019s IT team and internal support.<\/p>\n<p>At this step, it\u2019s crucial to <strong>test the entire process a few times<\/strong>. You want to ensure the entire process is smooth and, better yet, enjoyable for your customers. Does the editor work well? Is it fun to use? You need to ensure customers don\u2019t get bored or frustrated and, even after they\u2019ve decided on their creation, that the final product matches their expectations. Create your own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getprintbox.com\/features\/photobook-software\">photobook<\/a>, as well as any other products you wish to sell, so you know exactly what you\u2019re selling.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><span style=\"color: #2fd28e;\">Communication is key here and you should work with a company that maintains regular contact, as they&#8217;ll essentially act as your company&#8217;s IT team<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Promote_Your_Business\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #2fd28e;\">Step 4: Promote Your Business<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now, it\u2019s time to get the word out. Promote your new online business via:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Posters in your store<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>2. Emailing your customer base<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>3. Social Media<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>4. Search Engines<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>First of all, you should inform your existing customer base.<\/strong> If you have a physical store, put up some posters, but also e-mail people and highlight the ease of your online site.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For new customers, you should consider utilising social media, both through regular posting and through sponsored advertising, such as Facebook Ads. You should try a simple campaign in Google Adwords targeting potential customers in your area.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We will cover how to do the marketing for an online photo product business soon!<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whats_Next\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #2fd28e;\">What&#8217;s Next<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Don\u2019t expect miraculous results overnight.\u00a0<strong>It should take almost a whole year to truly assess the value of your range.<\/strong> As stated earlier, some products, such as calendars, have specific peak times, while Christmas itself is often a busy period for all custom products.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Because of this, it\u2019s best to get your range set-up by the summer,<\/strong> as this will give you time to test the range, adjust as necessary and start your marketing efforts to gain exposure in time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.getprintbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/info.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.getprintbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/info.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Are you looking for ways to expand your printing business?
