Hey guys --

I'm working on adding some new products for my clients... and I'm wondering what your "hottest" -- or most successful -- sellers have been for 2008.

Ideas...ideas??

albums. not even a contest.

Gallery Wrapped Canvases from Pixel2Canvas and KISS books!

Albums and story boards!

In terms of add-ons after the wedding -- parent books.

I sell a TON of mini-storyboards 5x10's mounted on styrene. I sell them in sets of 2. They can do 2 of the same design or two different designs. They usually buy a 10x20 storyboard and then a set of minis to send to family.

Anyone have pictures of these storyboards?

Yeah, I'm a rookie, no idea what storyboards are. Pictures please!

2 things actually, engagement sign in books and Albums Unlimited albums with metal etched covers.

engagement sign in books, everyone that does an engagement session buys one

Storyboards are wonderful! I like putting 2 - 5 pictures together to bring ideas/colors/actions together. They are very visually appealing and my customers almost never turn them down. I get them mounted on styrene at WHCC.

Here are some of my samples

Sorry it took so long....I have been busy!
Here are some storyboards. They are all mounted on styrene. My portrait clients LOVE them!!!

Here's a link to my storyboard gallery. From my experience parents really love these and you can have them framed or add matboard to them to make them sturdy and just display them on a shelf or on an easel. Granted these are for portrait sessions, so I'm not sure how they would fly for wedding clients.

Storyboards are great! I need to do that more often and PUSH them.

Best for us - Infinity (Graphi) hands down

Cindy - those are cool! How do you present them? Are they framed? If not, do they hang? Sit on an easel?

Thanks!

How many pages are there on average?

Thanks! The client receives them just as they are pictured. They are mounted on styrene so they can easily be displayed as is. However, most people end up having them framed. The mini storyboard is great displayed on a tiny easel. Hobby Lobby or Michael's carry some nice mini-easels. In my own home I like to use a narrow shelf and just lean them up against the wall. I change them out often.
Another option that I am about to start offering is a storyboard as a Gallery Mount from Prolab Express. I also offer the storyboards as a gallery wrap.
