New Website is up.

Hoo, Hoo, The new website is up. Lookmatters out of Regina did the redesign. I wanted a simple design that was easy to navigate and that's what I got. The website is and will continue to be a major marketing tool for us. We have the site to be able to post pictures for customers to see and so we can send potential customers to see what we do. I try to make initial contact with a potential show via email. It's a soft sell and easily accepted by customers. I mention the website and invite them to see it. That way there really is no obligation to even answer my email. Although I appreciate the recepient to acknowledge the email even if it is just a quick no thank you.

As we grow the business there are things we are going to try. I'm going to shoot some agility this year to see what kind of reaction to our photos we can get. I want to try herding or lure coursing. Tough events to shoot and get photos that show what the sport is all about.

Lots of changes for spring.

We are off to the first Calgary show of 2007. It happens on March 2,3,4. in the Big 4 building.
The new website is coming along. I hope to have it up and running in the next week or two.

I had some problems with my main laptop in December, but I've had windows reinstalled and have also installed and configured all the photo stuff. The viewing stations went over well at the December show. We will be adding one more viewing station this year so we will have 3.


This is a dog show photos blog so here's a headshot from the last show.

I had some coffee mugs and mousepads made with Doggy photos on them. We will be offering them at an introductory price of $ 19.95 each. We will offer this special for Calgary and Fort St John to see what kind of interest we get.
