Additional Marketing Support Offered to LifePics Network Members
LifePics, Inc., the leading provider of business-to-business online digital photography
solutions, today announced a strategic relationship with Andrules+Fries Design,
a professional creative communications consultancy that specializes in using imagery
and the Internet to develop powerful communications tools. The relationship enables
both companies to focus on their individual areas of expertise while together providing
the photo specialty channel with best-in-class web sites inclusive of the LifePics
online imaging service.
For photofinishers and photographers that do not have an existing Internet presence,
the strategic relationship forged between LifePics and Andrules+Fries Design provides
them with an opportunity to launch a custom, best-in-class web site that provides
a content rich front-end presence to the imaging solution. This is a turnkey solution,
customized to meet each client's specifications yet developed at a minimal cost.
There are multiple design, content and hosting packages to choose from. Now any
photofinishing dealer or photographer can easily and affordably enter the digital
age by offering their customers the ability to upload their digital photos for viewing
their photos online, editing, sharing creating albums, storing and, most importantly,
ordering fast on-demand photos online from their neighborhood retail location.
"LifePics recognized that many of our clients would require professional assistance
in developing a web presence as a front-end to their online imaging solution. Rather
than deviating from our core competency of developing state-of-the-art imaging solutions,
we searched for a strategic communications firm that could assist our photofinishing
dealers and photographers. Andrules+Fries Design surpassed all other consultancies
that we looked at. They combine strategic advisors and practical implementers in
