Pictage Introduces New Monthly Subscription Plans to Give Professional Photographer Members Greater Choice and Flexibility
Online Photography Services Leader Now Offers More Affordable Subscription Rates with Broader Range of Support Options to Further Empower Photographers and Enable Success
TORRANCE, Calif. Pictage.com (http://www.pictage.com), the leading professional photographer community and online platform for marketing, selling, and fulfilling professional photo products, today announced the availability of three new monthly subscription plans that give its professional photographer members greater choice, increased flexibility, and more affordable pricing to better assist them with building their respective businesses.
Developed with feedback from current members and partners, the latest Pictage subscription structure now offers three plans: Starter ($19.00/month), Premium ($49.00/month) and Pro ($99.00/month). Each subscription tier features products, services and support options designed to meet the needs of different professional photographers, based on their individual experience level. Payable on a month-to-month basis, all Pictage memberships may be changed or cancelled at any time, and do not carry any initiation fee or annual commitment.
“For some time now, current and prospective Pictage members have requested new subscription options which offer a broader range of valuable tools and services for emerging and established professional photographers to connect with customers, and market, package and sell their images,” said Simon Anderson, chief marketing officer of Pictage, Inc. “Pictage’s new monthly pricing plans are designed to empower photographers at every stage of their business, from the new professional seeking to establish a client base and generate income, to the established photographer seeking a trusted partner to efficiently manage their post-shoot workflow and maximize product revenue. Regardless of the plan, all Pictage members have access to an active, engaged community, and industry-leading products, services and customer care that save time and money, and allow them to focus more on their artistry, interests and passions.”
The Starter plan offers everything needed to start a photography business. At just $19.00 per month, Starter plan subscribers can use Pictage’s new Photographer Portal to access all of the company’s standard features and services, including comprehensive online marketing options and a suite of quality print, album and book products to offer their clients and guests.
Pictage’s Premium plan, at a cost of $49.00 per month, is ideal for full-time photographers with growing businesses. In addition to all Starter plan amenities, Premium plan subscribers can also access free album design services, photographer directory listings, and the company’s popular Slideshow feature, and receive studio sample discounts and utilize a broader range of album and product vendors. Premium members also can take advantage of discounted payment processing fees.
At $99.00 per month, Pictage’s Pro plan is exclusively designed for high-volume studios, and photographers who require more customized products and services. The Pro plan includes all Starter and Premium features, plus multi-shooter sub accounts, more photography directory listings, priority customer service, and lower commission rates and payment processing fees.
