Client Creating Holiday Cards??

smilenj · August 28, 2010

Apologies if this topics is somewhere else but can someone tell me if clients are going to be able to create their own cards this year. I know it was discussed last year so I'm hoping this will be a new feature. And to be clear, my wish is that:

* I upload the photos
* Client choose "Buy" card
* Client Has the ability to choose a card layout and text
* Client Orders the card and pays my assigned pricing
* Cards are shipped to them

Will this happen or will I get coal in my card stocking this year?

Thanks,

Joey

Thanks Ann - but doesn't this process require me to create the cards for the client? I see this note on that page:

"EDIT 11/20: We’re hearing lots about wanting customers to be able to pick their own card designs and make them from your photos. We’re working hard on that but unfortunately don’t have a day to give you for when the feature will go live. "

Guess I'm asking if there has been movement with this.

Love, Love, Love this. So made my day. But where do I create the pricing? I use Bay and don't see that as an option under "set pricing."

Hi - sorry for the wrong set of release notes! We added the ability for customers to create cards shortly after that. I should know better than to answer things in the middle of the night!

You will need to set your price list (even your portfolio list) to EZPrints, price the cards, and then set it back. That will allow you to sell cards even if your prints come from Bay.

Thanks Ann - but so I understand this - do I need to reset all of galleries to EZ and then back to Bay. I was planning on sending an email to all clients (150+) about creating holiday cards.
