WPPI’s 30th annual convention is going on in Las Vegas at the MGM Grand! From March 8 through the 10th, we will be participating in the trade show in booth 1601. With our new partnership with Albums Inc., you can also see a full line of our products in their booth (1535).
Featured at both booths will be our founder and CEO, Mark Zucker, as he speaks about how you can improve your album sales at 2 PM in the Zookbinders booth and 3 PM in the Albums Inc. booth on both Monday and Tuesday. Also when you stop by, you will see our entire line of books and albums including the PhotoBook Plus and our brand new soft cover Value Packs. If you follow us on Twitter or become a fan on Facebook, you will gain access to a special code that will give you 30% off of any PhotoBook Plus order through the end of this month.
We hope to see all of you there. Stop by, say hi, check out the new books and see how we can help you increase your sales and create many happy clients. Have a great convention everyone.
Our feature photo of the week is from Michigan photographer, Prem Mukherjee from Arising Images. This album has images from a trip to Africa which contains very moving photos. Prem has always submitted work to us of very beautiful landscapes and cultures from around the world. This photo below of children praying is one of the most uplifting images one might see.
Come be a fan of Zookbinders on Facebook. When you become a fan you’ll be able to keep up to date with all that is happening at Zookbinders AND access our special promotional code entitling you to 30% off all PhotoBook Plus orders through the end of March. If we get 500 fans by March 31, 2010, we’ll extend the promotional offer through the end of April. Tell all of your friends.
Our Customer Spotlight for the Month of March is Rebekah Westover Photography from Orem, UT. Zookbinders loves her work, one of her infamous albums used by Zookbinders is The Wedding of Erik and Kali – we’ve taken samples of this to trade shows and have kept many samples in our office here in Deerfield, IL.
In fact, we love her work so much – that when you pass through one our main hallways you will see our piece of artwork we refer to as “The Zookbinders Wall of Frame”. We have twenty 10×20 black wall frames displaying each spread from Rebekah’s album. You can see this in the picture shown below:
Just to add more to the tale of this infamous album – at the WPPI Tradeshow in 2009, we met the bride, Kali – who stopped by our booth and noticed her wedding album displayed for all to see!
Read below to learn a little about Rebekah Westover and check out a slideshow we posted of her work and one of our favorite albums – Erik and Kali.
