Learn How NowCandid Can Help You Remarket Your Pre-NowCandid Images🌟

Learn How NowCandid Can Help You Remarket Your Pre-NowCandid Images🌟

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!

‍

Things such as:

‍

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

‍

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!

‍

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

‍

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.

‍

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

‍

The Power of Remarketing πŸ”„

‍

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

‍

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

‍

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.

‍

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

‍

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!

‍

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.

‍

Your Portfolio, Forever Profitable πŸ’Ό

‍

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.

‍

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

‍

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.

‍

Unlocking New Sales with Old Memories πŸ”‘

‍

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.

‍

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.

‍

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

Hey there, NowCandid users!

‍

It’s Candy, back again with an important update about the Apple iOSΒ Capture &Β Upload app!

‍

There is an issue with vertical images taken on Nikons when using the NowCandid Capture &Β Upload app on Apple iOS. The images do not rotate to appear vertical properly on the retail site!

‍

To fix this issue, install version 1.0.8, now available on the iOSΒ App Store.

‍

Moving on!

‍

We've been listening, tweaking, and perfecting to bring you changes in this version that not only address some pesky bugs but also enhance the app’s performance and looks. Here’s the lowdown:

‍

πŸ“Έ Bigger and Better Preview

‍

‍For those using an iPad, your recently captured image screen just got a major size boost! You can now view your recent masterpieces in even bigger glory.

‍

πŸ“· Camera Loading Tips
‍

Waiting can be a drag, right? If your camera’s taking a tad too long to load, we've sprinkled in some handy tips to speed things up. Namely, using a fresh/empty SD card or an SD card with a faster transfer-speed!

‍

πŸ” From Image to Folder

‍

‍Based on the feedback from our amazing user community (shoutout to you all! 🌟), we changed "Open Image" button in the image gallery to "Open Folder". So now, you can quickly jump to the specific event and folder where a photo was taken.

‍

πŸš€ Performance Boost!

‍

‍Rendering the vertical image list is now faster and more memory-efficient. Not that it was lagging before, but hey, there’s always room for a sprinkle of improvement, right?

‍

πŸ›  Fixes Galore!

‍

‍A few other minor glitches, from camera connection issues with the Nikon D7100 to the name input popup sequence, have been given the Candy treatment! They're all fixed up.

‍

🎨 Juicier Colors

‍

‍Your app visuals and captured images are about to pop with vibrancy! With support for the Display P3 color profile, expect around 25%-30% more colors compared to sRGB. Prepare for a visual feast!

‍

πŸ” iPad Interface Lift

‍

‍For the iPad users among us, the "Add Participant" popup now boasts a sleek redesign with larger input buttons for a more intuitive experience and less cell phone number typos.

‍

πŸ”„ And, of course, The Big Rotation Fix!

‍

‍Just a reminder about that essential rotation fix for external camera images we kicked things off with. Yup, it's that important!

‍

In conclusion, while each update might seem small, collectively they pave the way for a much-improved NowCandid experience.

‍

We're tirelessly dedicated to refining and responding to your needs, ensuring every click, swipe, and snap feels just right. Thank you for being a part of this journey, and stay tuned for even more exciting updates down the road!

‍

Until next time, keep those cameras clicking and the feedback rolling! πŸ“·βœ¨

Tosha LaForest: Amplifying School Dance Sales with NowCandid

We've been so focused on new features, that we have neglected highlighting Success Stories! Let's fix that...

‍

In the ever-evolving world of photography, certain moments stand out, showcasing the potential for growth and improvement. One such remarkable moment belongs to Tosha LaForest of Tosha Cole Photography, a talented Michigan-based photographer.

‍

Tosha LaForest of Tosha Cole Photography

‍

From Usual to Unprecedented

‍
Tosha has photographed the same high school dance for the past 7 years, giving her a fair bit of experience with social photography. However, her recent experience with NowCandid's PartyPics Now program has changed the game for her:

‍
"I've been photographing this same school dance for 7 years and making that much [in sales] would have NEVER been possible without NowCandid!" Tosha excitedly shared. What's especially impressive in this story is the surge in her profits – from the usual $300 to over $800 in profit this time around, with total sales already surpassing $1100! Meaning, she has almost tripled her usual sales. Nice job, Tosha!

‍

Strategies and Selections

‍

‍Tosha's use of the Tap-A-Face workflow combined with the option of Selfie Check-In ensured that she enhanced her sales potential by collecting lots of contact info on site, while also pairing their contact info to a reference image of each attendee she photographed.

‍

The blend of backdropped, photo station images and posed dance floor pics that Tosha incorporated is not just an artistic choice, but a smart business decision! Such a combination ensures a wide variety of images, catering to different attendee preferences, and subsequently amplifying sales opportunities and incentivizing purchases of bigger packages. More poses and more images will always lead to more sales!

‍

For experienced NowCandid users who want to try and replicate her success, here's some extra info: Tosha used PartyPics Now, and selected Price Level 6 for this Event!

‍‍

Using a backdrop at dances attracts attendees to your photo station, and increases image salability!

‍‍‍

Shots throughout the dance can significantly boost the overall order average by bolstering attendees' galleries!

‍
Looking Ahead: The Future is Bright!

‍

‍Tosha's future plans? They're simple yet ambitious. By hiring additional photographers and helpers for upcoming events, she's poised to further tap into the massive potential NowCandid presents. Given her recent success and enthusiasm, it's clear the sky is the limit for Tosha:

‍

"Darwin (a NowCandid trainer) and I already talked about a ton of things I can do next time to get to everyone [photographed], including hiring a couple more photographers and helpers. It's definitely worth it! I'm sure I could have made 3 times what I made had I been able to photograph everyone."

‍

We're looking forward to seeing how things progress for you, Tosha! Thanks for using NowCandid.

What’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.
