If you’re a photo booth owner like me, you might have considered using templates to improve your photo booth layouts. This is a topic I’ve seen discussed a lot amongst other photo booth owners, so I wanted to address it head-on.
For those of you who know me, you’ll know I love using DSLR Booth because of the wide range of available templates.
Many of us ‘boothers’ are not professional graphic designers, so creating custom templates from scratch can take up a lot of time, as well as produce sub-optimal results for our clients. That’s where DSLR Booth templates like these come in handy.
As so, I thought I’d put together this quick note discussing the top 5 reasons every photo booth owner should be using templates in their business. Let me know what you think in the comments!
1. Happier Clients!
Nobody wants to be “one of many”, they want to be unique! So when you’re clients are shelling out for a photo booth at their special event, offering them a customised – and unique – photo booth template can be a great way to increase their satisfaction.
By using a readymade DSLR Booth template, you can quickly and easily provide a unique photo booth layout for your clients and their event.
Not only does this impress your client, it will also give guests a fantastic memento of their day. For years to come, your custom-made layout will be stuck on their refrigerator, reminding them of the occasion.
2. More Profits!
although many photo booth owners offer customised designs for free, many also add a surcharge for this additional service.
Clients are often more than happy to pay an additional $50-$150 to have a customised photo booth layout for their special day. With access to dozens of DSLR Booth templates, you’ll be able to create professionally customised designs in just a matter of minutes – and your clients will be more than happy to pay for the privilege!
If you attend just 15 events with your photo booth each month, and you charge $100 per design, that’s a huge $18,000 per year in additional income!
3. Increased Professionalism!
The more services and add-ons you can offer your clients, the more likely they will be to choose your photo booth business over the competition.
Sure, not all clients will request a custom photo booth design, but those who do want a customised layout will quickly take a pass on choosing your business.
And with so many readymade templates out there, you’ve no excuse to not offer such a valuable service to your clients.
4. Time Savings!
If you already create customised photo booth layouts for your clients, but you’re not using templates, you’re wasting a lot of time which could be spent on more important activities.
Those of us that’ve slaved away in Photoshop making custom templates for our clients know just how difficult and time consuming it can be.
Templates on the other hand take just a few minutes to edit. Serious! With readymade templates, all you have to do is edit the text to match your client’s name and you’re ready to load them into the printer.
Just imagine what you could do with all that additional saved time!
5. Better Designs!
Look, I’m not saying you’re a bad designer – you might be the best designer in the world. However, most photo booth owners simply don’t have the Photoshop skills to compete with a professional designer.
Photo booth templates solve this problem, giving you designs produced by a professional graphic designer, but in a ready-to-use format that can be customised on the fly.
