Do you need to change your perspective on digital? Creative by nature
Future perspectives... Let s face facts! Where are photos being printed in the USA? 2004 2007 2001 31% 14% 45% Online & home printing Print at retail Source : PMA Research : 2006 Where do we stand about the decrease of prints? The digital prints finally compensate the decrease of the film prints in developed countries. For example, 35% of French households print from digital, 5 times more than in 2003 and, good news, they do come back at retail. In 2009, Kodak estimates that 50% of European prints will be done in stores. In which production tool do you need to invest for tomorrow? It will be more and more difficult to pay off the equipment with the sole 4 x6. The 4 x6 will remain a major product that attracts and develops customers loyalty but with prices lowered by Internet, margins decrease despite the average order s size increase (which has doubled in 5 years). It is our duty to propose competitive minilabs on the 4 x6 while offering other sources of margins. Average cost of the 4 x6 in Western Europe (Internet and wholesale lab included) 23 cts 19 cts 16 cts 2005 2006 2007 13 cts 2008 Sources: Understanding & Solutions 2006 Evolution of added value products in the USA 1 % 11 % in 2006 12% of prints $600 Millions 10 % 18 % in 2011 28% of prints $1800 Millions Traditional prints Added value products done via the web Added value products done in stores What are the new best-sellers? Due to the open possibilities of the digital, the 4 x6 alternatives are numerous: albums, calendars, posters, greeting cards... Why staying away from a segment that already generates 40% of the websites margins? Don t let your customers leave for the diversity of the Web offer. Those new products have increased by 60% last year in the USA and 75% of American households will realize some soon. Source : Photofinishing News 2007
