Learn How NowCandid Can Help You Remarket Your Pre-NowCandid Images๐ŸŒŸ

Learn How NowCandid Can Help You Remarket Your Pre-NowCandid Images๐ŸŒŸ

For those who are new to NowCandid, let me tell you that NowCandid does a lot to help you continue to make sales on the images that you put through our system!

โ€

Things such as:

โ€

  • Long-Term Hosting: We keep galleries online for at least 15 years.
    โ€
  • Ongoing Marketing: Annual Event reminders & occasional consolidated Event marketing.
    โ€
  • Sales Reinforcement: "Order More" QR codes on print products to encourage reorders.

โ€

So, if you're using NowCandid for your current and future Events, those Events are all set to generate plenty of residual sales as the years go by!

โ€

However, did you know that NowCandid can be used to easily remarket images from your past, pre-NowCandid Events?

โ€

As a photographer, you have probably used other software and sales solutions in the past. That's okay! NowCandid is not a jealous business partner, and we are just happy you're here for us to help you now.

โ€

So let's talk about how we can help you get more sales out of those past Events of yours.

โ€

The Power of Remarketing ๐Ÿ”„

โ€

First off, let me say that this will only work in situations where you have:

โ€

  • Pictures of Individuals: Such as headshots or portraits.
    โ€
  • Corresponding Contact Information: You need to know which contact info goes with which image files.

โ€

If you have past Events with those two things readily available, then you can use our oft overlooked FaceMatch Import Workflow to create what we often call a FaceGroup in your NowCandid Dashboard.

โ€

You can then use that FaceGroup (pictures of individuals corresponding to an uploaded set of contact information) in any of your NowCandid Events!

โ€

Meaning... you could create a NowCandid Event, utilize a FaceGroup of some school picture headshots you did, and then upload to that Event that class's graduation pictures, school pictures, dance pictures, or anything else you'd like to remarket!

โ€

Once the "reference images" from your FaceGroup are in the Event as well as your past images of that same group of people - the images will match up using our Face Matching processes and begin a marketing campaign and sales effort that will help you generate some sales on those old images right now, as well as occasional residual sales over the years and years to come.

โ€

Your Portfolio, Forever Profitable ๐Ÿ’ผ

โ€

As an example, a new NowCandid user performed the exact processes we described above to "remarket" graduation pictures from 4 of the graduations they photographed last year.

โ€

Within a month of remarketing those 2023 images, this user generated about $1300 in sales and shipping!

โ€

That $1300 will be in addition to the sales they will be able to make as the years go by, thanks to the residual sales tactics we mentioned earlier.

โ€

Unlocking New Sales with Old Memories ๐Ÿ”‘

โ€

So, if you dear reader are in a position to utilize some of the portraits and contact info you've collected in the past, consider using NowCandid to remarket them! Doesn't matter if they're 1, 3, 5, or even 10+ years old.

โ€

NowCandid does not charge you any subscription or hosting fees, so even if you were to make $0 in sales, it won't cost you a thing.

โ€

We only make money when you do, and we only want to help you earn more and work less!

โ€

Schoolโ€™s Out, Earnings In: A Teacher's GradPics Now Success

Time for another success story!

โ€

For years, graduation photography has played a crucial role in capturing the pivotal moments of grads. Not only are these professional photos treasured keepsakes, but they also present substantial income opportunities for photographers.

โ€

Consider the story of Eric, a high school photography teacher and small business owner. Eric ventured into a graduation event with NowCandid's platform, intending to photograph around 500 graduates. He had modest expectations, aiming to generate about $1,200 in sales. What unfolded next, however, far exceeded even his most optimistic projections.

โ€

โ€

In his very first event using NowCandid, the earnings soared past expectations!

โ€

Almost reaching an astounding $12,000 within only seven days after the event. Such a windfall was not only a personal victory for the teacher but also a testament to NowCandid's potential to transform event photography. So far (as of publishing this article), the event has reached well over $15,000. A far cry from his initially predicted $1,200.

ย 

Sharing his success in an email to his onboarding trainer, Darwin Drake, the photography teacher expressed his profound amazement and gratitude. "I am at $6,700 earned and counting. I am beyond speechless. I'm gobsmacked. I'm overjoyed. I am stunned." (And that reaction was before it hit $12,000 days later!)

ย

โ€

But the triumph of this story goes beyond the impressive earnings.

โ€

As a teacher, Eric was able to bring his students onboard, teaching them practical skills while also providing them with paid experience. "I hired 4 of my current and former photography students for this event," he wrote, "and as a teacher and small business owner I am so profoundly thankful to be able to teach them and pay them."

ย

โ€

This story highlights the remarkable opportunities that NowCandid can bring to photographers and entrepreneurs.

โ€

Whether you're a professional photographer seeking to maximize your earnings, a teacher nurturing the next generation of photographers, or a business owner eager to expand your reach, NowCandid can provide the platform and tools you need to achieve your goals.

โ€

โ€

In event photography, moments become memories, and for a photographer: memories are opportunities!

โ€

Eric's experience shows, that with the right tools and workflow, it is more possible (and easier!) than ever before to monetize your photography in a big way.

Whatโ€™s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
