Junio 06, 20166 Jun
Are you trying to set yourself apart in an industry that seems to be exploding at the moment? With every man and his dog with a half decent camera offering services at one level or another, diversifying the media and medium in which you present your images could be a fantastic way to evolve your business.
Here at Adventa we provide solutions to this very problem on a daily basis. With our research and understanding of the industry, we thought we would try and help out with a few suggestions.
So you have done that special shoot; a wedding, christening, birthday party or simply a family portrait. You have done all of your editing and want to offer that little extra to give your client exactly what they want, and depending on the person and the event can depend on the media that you offer.
A fairly traditional offering…. Framed Images and Canvas Prints
Traditionally, after most shoots, you will offer a digital format of a selection of images. This, along with a varied size of print from 4 x 6” through to 20 x 30” is generally what people will expect. Most will receive an album of some sort and the images will be beautifully printed, and edited if required. With larger images you may frame them or even have them transferred and displayed on a canvas. These types of services and products will keep your offerings similar to the rest of your peers, but will rarely set you apart.
The new patented product from Adventa, the QuickPro ArtWrap is ground-breaking in the world of canvas print, offering a faster and very cost-effective method of making premium high quality canvases.
The quality of the QuickPro ArtWrap Canvas ensures that you produce professional results every time. Everything you need to create the perfect canvas in just 120 seconds, with no specialist knowledge or equipment required. This unique canvas creation process ensures that you can cope with high demand, maintain speedy turnaround and not compromise on quality.
The strong board construction uses a ‘fold and lock’ method with a premium back board to complete the canvas. Our unique manufacture process brings strength and durability to your canvas, also enabling you to produce perfect, clean edges for your print.
This product delivers the high standards, quality and unique creativity of Adventa to your customers.
How about something a little different …
Adventa ArtBlox are an interesting twist to using a frame or canvas. They give images a very contemporary look with a fine art archival quality and the best thing about them is how quick and easy they are to produce, without the need for knives. Using our patented design, they are tough and durable and come with a semi matt finish. They can be used as a wall hung picture or can stand on a table or sideboard, something just a little different.
Options that are good for Family portraits and parties.
With parties and family portraits you do have a little more licence and flexibility with what you produce. You can do those serious shots that everyone wants, but you also have scope for a little fun, especially when children are involved. At parties get them to pick their favourite gift or if it is during a portrait shoot, get them to bring a toy or have some balls, balloons and toys around and get that beautiful natural shot of the children at play having fun.
This opens up a whole new world of opportunities and income streams for you. Why not offer keyrings with individual images of the children in a more relaxed setting? These will be perfect for the parents themselves or even for the parent to give to grandparents, and with the cost not being too high this could be a nice easy upsell for you.
In a similar vein why not look at magnets. When most people think of magnets they think of small fridge magnets, and they are great, however if you do look through our website you will see a broad range of magnets from the humble fridge magnet to our panoramic magnet with stand, right the way through to our Premium Solo Mount Magnets in a 4”x 6”, again something just a little bit different. These are available in a range of exciting vibrant colours and can be offered as a magnet of frame option.
These more fun and relaxed type of images that would also be great on T-shirts, sweatshirts or even mugs.
If you are looking to extend to printed garments, we would always suggest developing a working relationship with a local T-shirt print company. This will ensure that the garments and products that you offer are of the best print quality and best prices.
How about delivering the option of greetings cards?
We know what a lot of people say when they speak to us about cards. They can’t compete with the large online sellers, and we don’t expect that. The service that you offer is more of a premium one; the images you create with your skill as a photographer makes you a country mile better and we understand the investment you would have to make in machinery could make this a prohibitive idea.
So our clever boffins here at Adventa have invented a fantastic card frame that allows you to deliver a more personalised and beautiful card package to your clients. This is ideal for sending to extended family and friends.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow globe….
So that leads in nicely to our seasonal range of products, with our image ready range of Baubles, Ornaments, Snow Domes, Christmassy frames and rather fancy SnowBlox you really could offer a complete seasonal package, allowing your clients to decorate their trees and home with a festive range of products, and in reality you can start marketing these from September onwards, just as the wedding season comes to an end.
Extending your product range while keeping it simple
In short, what we have tried to do here at Adventa is to give you and your business options, helping you to deliver a better range of products to your clients and diversifying your business.
But we understand that your time is often stretched as it is, and new products, different processes and skills can take time to develop. That is why we ensure that all of our products require no specialised training, no expensive tools and are quick and easy to produce.
Our focus is always on quality and efficiency. Why not take a look through the products we have available?
