Qualifications
- Be presentable and confident in your ability to market yourself. While our staff does a lot of work to get accounts for our distributors, at the end of the day you must be able to intelligently discuss the program with clients and convince them that you can do a great job for their program. Additionally, you must be able to maintain their confidence once you land an account. If you lack confidence in your own abilities or you do not have good people skills, this may not be for you.
- Be financially stable. This is a great "home based" and "second income" business. If, however, you are not financially stable, you need a job, not a business opportunity. Get that job and then give us a call. It can take a couple of years to really develop a good base and you need to be able to pay your bills in the mean time.
- Be stable in your place of residence. If you are planning to move in the near future, do not pursue this business until you stabilize your situation. This business is not portable.
- If you own a lab or already have a successful business in place, our program is not for you UNLESS you are trying to "un-complicate" your situation and give up that overhead. If you already have that overhead and intend to keep it, you need to do your own production to pay for that monster and you do not need us.
- If you do not return phone calls or regularly answer your phone, you should not pursue this business. Not only will your customers give up on you, we will give up on you. Returning phone calls is VERY, VERY important to the success of this business opportunity and for you to work well with our company.
- You must have at least $2,000 to invest in the proper equipment to service clients (if you do not already have the equipment)
Getting Started
- Call Rich at 1-800-829-8631 to discuss the program. You MUST demonstrate that you are qualified to do the photography and that you have the required equipment to service preschool accounts. Often, we will request that you submit samples of your work that show backgrounds that you have and demonstrate the type of photographic quality that is required for this business.
- We will research your area and set up a marketing database of schools. Our sales and marketing team will send out an initial mailer. Our goal initially will be to get you a limited number of accounts to “get your feet wet.” As time goes by, we will work with you to further develop and build your business.
- After you get your first account, we will work with you to train you on our system of order management, and help you in any way that we can to successfully photograph the account.
- As time goes by, we will work with you to build your preschool business according to your goals and specific needs and abilities.
