Contacting Clients

Whilst speaking to Steve on Wednesday I asked him if I could use my own company as a client and he said I could which is good because we could do with some professional shots for the company profile, promotion and websites.  I run a small company in Swadlincote near Burton on Trent.  The company is Marquee Sales and Gate Automation Sales to the trade and public both run under the same limited company Proforme UK Limited.  It is a small company but sales are worldwide reaching mainly Europe but as far as Australia, Africa and the Caribbean.

The two main websites are http://www.marquee-sale.co.uk/ for Marquee Sales and http://www.proforge.com/ for Gate Automation sales.  The images for the Gate Automation website have been given to us by our suppliers with consent so there is no copyright issues and they have been used on the website.  Marquees are more difficult as these are all imported direct from China so any images have to be taken ourselves or our suppliers whilst the products are being tested in the factory.

I have just telephoned a friend of mine who has just set up her own business which specailises in laser hair removel.  The company is New You IPL Clinic and is based in Leicester.  They would like some professional shots taken of the salon for the website, company profile and gallery.  I have asked her to think about what she would like to acheive and I will contact her again next week to arrange a meeting.

I will contact Elite Handling on Monday as they are only open during office hours.  Elite Handling are a logistics company based in Nottingham who provide warehouse and transport solutions.

Ok better get on with some research as I have no idea what I am doing.................!

  1. Hi
    Great work!, keep those client ideas flowing, Often businesses have done photography themselves and it can often be beaten by someone who has creativity and visual skills.
    Your research are the photographers who work within these areas similar to the people you are intending to work with so you know how best to approach the shoots, etc.... load you blog up with these photographers as you would do any research.

  2. Hi
    can you open out your next blog to show more images that are currently used so we can plan how to better them.
    Extensive research must also be appearing here to show similar photographic work from this area and not just these clients.
