February 24th, 2009 in We’re not so different to you.
I talked to a photographer who was at WPPI and he said, “More album manufacturers, less people attending.”
You must hear that every day. “More photographers entering the market, less brides to go around”.
A statement like that makes you realise how important what you’re offering is. And how you’re doing it. So I asked him how other album companies compared to Queensberry – anyone getting close?
Nope. Everyone is going the other way. Cheaper albums and faster turn-around times.
That makes us feel pretty good, because we know the trade-off. We’re not cheap and we’re not as fast as a machine-made product. But that’s what lets us be different. It’s who we are – and that’s key right now.
More of the same isn’t going to get anyone anywhere in these tough times, so why follow the Piper? Let’s be ourselves. Let’s be different together.
Cheers, Nigel
