Holiday Campaigns with Pic-Time

The Holidays are close and with your clients eager to shop their gift list, now is a great time to launch engaging campaigns and up your revenue.  

With our products being readily available through the innovative gallery platform service, Pic-Time, your clients can shop straight from their galleries for meaningful Holiday gifts. We know that those who host sales are selling more, so why not join the party? Pic-Time offers ready-to-use Holiday Campaigns so you can implement an offer with just a click.

Holiday Albums Sale: We recommend you start and end this campaign between November 10 - November 22. 

Get our albums under your client’s trees in time for the Holidays. Our album deadline is November 22nd (November 29th with EU rush shipping) so starting an early album sale is key. Pic-Time got you covered with their Holiday Albums Sale campaign app. It’s all there - the emails and banners just set your dates and discount! 

Be sure to start your Album sale soon and end it before November 22nd in order to meet our shipping deadline! 

Classic Holiday Sale 

Phase 1: Black Friday, November 26 - Cyber Monday, November 30 

Phase 2: Holiday Sale, starts on December 2nd and lasts for a week

The Classic Holiday Sale campaign app includes a teaser email and two phases: Black Friday and Holiday campaign. This app starts with a large Black Friday/Cyber Monday storewide discount followed by a smaller Holiday storewide campaign.

You can skip the teaser to avoid too many emails (if you made an album sale first).

The app features a festive gallery and email banners, so your clients can get into the Holiday spirit and get excited!

Based on last year’s data, each phase includes a set of optimised email send dates & times in order to boost your sales.

Our friends at Pic-Time have really thought of everything in regards to Holiday campaigns, so you can have an automated, hands-off marketing approach this season and spend time where it matters the most- with your loved ones!

Purrfect Pet Photos

“If cats could talk, they wouldn’t”

This pet photography is done in a way that’s so different to what we have seen before. It’s the purrfect combination of cute kitties and a great story idea behind each picture, topped-off with pure and simple love from this talented photographer for her models. Her name is Monika Małek, she is from Poland and she captured our attention with her wonderful work.

Maybe the cats wouldn’t like to talk if they could, but we most definitely want to talk about Monika’s work and share it here! We love it so much!

We couldn’t help ourselves - we just had to make an album. We decided on this cute 8x8” PrimaBook in Ash colour, with a tiny golden heart embossed on the cover.

It turned-out to be even better than imagined!

If you’re a pet photographer or simply a cat lover, follow Monika’s work and learn more about the PrimaBook Album which is perfect for this type of pictures!

Boost Your Portrait Photography Sales with PrimaBook

Just a little over a month ago we introduced a new photo album called PrimaBook. The 3 sizes (8x8”, 10x10”, 12x12”) plus 10 velvety Flores Fabrics along with nearly 20 pre-designed, golden embossing stamps make this book suited to a huge number of occasions. In these few short weeks we have seen it being used as a portrait album for glamour and newborn photography, for family and lifestyle photography sessions, and even virtual boudoir sessions via video chat!

Just one month in and already PrimaBook is our best selling photo book for portrait photographers.

Photographers worldwide are raving about their new PrimaBooks - we hope you’ll join them! Riina Vaikmaa, who is a portrait photographer from Estonia wrote:

“I LOVE MY PRIMA BOOK!
Mine just arrived and I love it! The quality is fantastic and it does look and feel expensive.”

I absolutely love black and white photos that’s why I ordered my PrimaBook in BW, but I also had one spread in colour, so if my clients want their albums in colour, I would know how it prints. PrimaBook prints BW and colour equally great. Last year I ordered my first sample from QT- and after that, I will never order from anywhere else. I have never seen albums with such high-end quality. I will never ever order from anywhere else.

So, what I am planning to do, now that I have seen the product: I will contact all my clients from the year 2019-2020 and will offer them a high-quality album with a great price, and as a second option: a print package for 10x15cm prints. I know that most of my boudoir clients would love to see their beautiful photos inside a beautiful end product- inside a beautiful album. If they could not afford it before, then now it’s the time.

I can only sell what I love, I do love PrimaBook so I’m sure selling this product would not be hard. / Riina Vaikmaa

Emma & James love their QT Album

This week we would love to share a blog post by Hannah Hall, one of the photographers who attended Snap Festival. She loved our albums so much that she decided to switch her old supplier to QtAlbums. We couldn’t be more happy and grateful for choosing us! We are even more delighted to hear that Emma & James, who were Hannah’s clients, loved their album too!

“I loved their finish, the attention to detail and access to round the clock support and advice which I hadn’t had with my previous company. Also, being half Polish, I absolutely loved supporting a business based in Poland”

— Hannah Hall

Hannah also shared what Emma & James, her wedding couple, thought about their album. This lovely comment puts a smile on our faces, but the final product is a combination of great photos, the right design, and a quality lab. That’s why we love to work with professionals like Hannah. This is what Emma and James said about their album.

“The album has been beautifully designed and shows the timeline of our day, all the happy, funny, exciting, beautiful moments we had with friends and family! The detail you can see in the photos is superb and we keep on spotting new little bits in each picture that really brings back the memories of the day!”

— Emma & James

Thank you so much Hannah, Emma and James!

The NEW BloomBook

May is the month when everything is blooming and coming to life. Our idea of an zero-waste & pocket-friendly album with a presentation box was growing for the last few months.

We have planted this vision in our heads a little while ago when we introduced biodegradable air-cushions. We wanted to create a product that would use some recycled materials and bits & pieces that would otherwise go to waste.

This idea is now in full bloom! And it’s called a BloomBook! How original…! 😉

So let me give you some details about the BloomBook. We bulk buy the material – the raw linen. That saves us money by reducing transportation costs, and generally, we can negotiate a better price.

As we offer just one size (20x20cm) we can have the material cut by a machine, which leaves very little material wasted. The Bloom Book comes in a presentation box, which is included in the price. The outer box is made of 3 mm cardboard from recycling, not actual wood.

The wooden frame inside the box is made of wood chips of an alder tree and it’s attached to the box with screws, so very little glue is needed – which means fewer chemicals.

As the money doesn’t grow on trees, we can now offer a product that is of very high quality yet super affordable. From only 65$ you can have the album and the presentation box! It’s a great entry level album for anybody who is starting to offer albums.
