STEVE Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 I have just returned from the minilab forum in Altrincham. I must thank Neil (with the help of Nigel at PMA) for organising such a great event. It was well attended with minilab owners who were enthusiastic, friendly and, most importantly, willing to exchange ideas and experiences. Forum was the keyword...no talking heads, just like minded people determined to put their heads together to improve our businesses. I, for one, have come home with my head spinning with new ideas. You just can't buy information like this...pricing, marketing, promotions, equipment, etc were all discussed with complete openness by the attendees. Definitely the best minilab meeting I have attended in ages. Thanks again Neil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilT Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 Thanks for the kind words. Have to agree, that the Forum worked well, and it was refreshing. But it was everyone that attended, and the willing to speak, that made it. I will up in more details later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cecilh Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 As the one coming furthest and still not home, I can only agree with Steve. Good to see you all. Although as I said, I am not yet home, I have put a couple of things in place as a result of the meeting. Thanks, Cecil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilT Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Cecil, you are a star and an inspiration ... Safe journey home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cecilh Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 At the conferance there was a man showing nice digital albums. I spoke to him on the phone right after and he was going to email what I had to do but sinse then not a dicky bird. I have lost his contact details but wonder if this is the type of aftersales that we would encourage me to do business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fujilab Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 I agree. If it is so tough out there how come these suppliers are not rising to the challenge and giving us better service :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cecilh Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Perhaps neil can tell us if this is a micky mouse company or one we can trust. I actually liked the product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photographis Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 Thanks Cecilh, I remembered after posting, doh! We have used them, for only one calendar. We found the online service a little laborious, but I don't see how it could be made easier. The service was reasonable, I believe we had the calendar within 5 days, and the quality was as shown at the conferrence (good). They have various levels of service, which are very interesting. Good for your website, but unsure about 'in-store'. Samples are needed to show off the quality (and show up the competition). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
