OK, I’ve taken the first step towards taking over the ‘photographic-portable-studio-shopping-centre-experience’ industry.

I have a name I’m happy with, a logo that will be used on my initial run and an awesome colour scheme to catch people’s eyes.

Click here to see the other possible logo styles I considered.

One of the USPs of my studio is that most of my photo products will be available to take away same day, almost instantly on the smaller items.

The colours are modern, bright and ‘cool’ – appealing to young families. It’s a great start and ticking all the boxes for how I wish my brand to come across.

Phase 1.2 – More Preparation

I’ve got a name a logo and some colours behind me now.

Now for the PRODUCT segment of my preparation.

For the rest of today and tomorrow I’ll be making a list of all the products that I will be offering, Posters to Plates, it will be comprehensive list of everything that I’ll be selling on launch, I already have good contacts and access to accounts which allow me produce and order certain items such as Photo Mugs, T-Shirts, Mouse Mats and much more.

Things to do:
Write up list of products, with prices.
Make light notes on which can be completed same-day / instantly and what will need to be sent away.

Other Stuff:
In other news Olan Mills bit the dust, full story can be read here.

Kinda scares me, but I’m still very confident I can pull this off, I look at the differences between my idea and what Olan Mills was and despite offering the same products I can see a clear difference in my execution and marketing methods.

Though, I’m still in for a rough ride, hopefully an enjoyable one!
