Here is the full transcript of the video:
“Fizzco, is a bit of a unique business, really. We do Christmas! Our work is fabulous. I mean, we get to work with decorations and, pretty products all year round.
We actually create the Christmas atmosphere, inside either a family friendly or a very upmarket
shopping mall at Christmas.
We, stumbled upon Chris actually through, an event, that my son was graduating at. We then had Chris work with us for photo shoots while we were having our Christmas party. That was all we knew of him at the time was, sort of head shots and group shots. But as we got to know him over at the time, it was more dealing with actually being able to battle the different lighting inside shopping centres and take pictures of the work that we had done, not just for our marketing, but also as a library so that we could see for future years exactly what went where.
So, we use Chris because he just goes along and does exactly what we require now.
We don't even really need to ask anymore, he just knows what the job entails. Working with Chris on photo shoots is a doddle. We really just leave it to him. We have maybe a list of two or three requirements that we actually want from the photo shoot and outputs from that.
But there's always a little freestyling going on as well, which is great. And it gives us perhaps an added twist to our marketing that we wouldn't have been able to do otherwise.
Being able to actually take the photos, and now use drone footage has become a such a big selling tool for, for us, for instance, there is a shopping centre in Telford that we've had a new scheme just this year. And Telford themselves have, taken some of the footage
and used it on their own social media. So the fact that we are being able to, use not just the photography, the video footage and pass it on to a client, who is then also very happy to, brag about how good the decorations were that year.
He manages to encapsulate the atmosphere and the actual feeling of Christmas, which is very difficult to achieve. We get really good images that we've been able to, use for various
different formats ourselves, whether that's social media, whether that's our own brochures,
whether that's our tenders that we are putting together for other clients.
The quality images, the choice of imagery, there's not too much Photoshoping going on either, so I really do feel as though it's true and genuine for the, reality of what we've been able to deliver for the job itself. The photographs have really helped our marketing efforts. We've been firstly on the, just as basic as the website itself. So we've now got some lovely banners on the website with some great video footage. We've been able to supply the imagery directly to our clients as well, who they’ve then have used it in their own marketing material for the following season. For instance, there is a shopping centre, down in south London, who have a fantastic grotto every year. And they use some of the imagery from the grotto, from the previous Christmas to market, sell and get in advance bookings for tickets as early as September.
So being able to have that library of imagery and stock images of genuine photography rather than just stock images is priceless.
If you are going to start using Chris to begin with, it's building up a relationship. As with every relationship, we have, suppliers and customers alike. Get to know him, let him get to know
your business and let him advise as well where he could probably help and assist
with something you perhaps haven’t consider.
