Best photo calendar print service in Germany
Cambridge Company FotoInsight Ltd is the best online photo print service in Germany according to Europe’s largest consumer advice magazine “test”.
Cambridge. 26 Oct 2012. - Europe’s largest consumer test and advice magazine “test”, issued by the product testing foundation “Stiftung Warentest” has tested glossy photo calendars from 12 online photographic print services in its October 2012 edition and FotoInsight Ltd of Cambridge came out on top.
FotoInsight’s Managing Director Klaas Brumann states: “FotoInsight’s export sales have consistently risen from 70% in 2008 and 2009 to 83% of revenues the current year. Our entire growths is due to increased sales to the more dynamic economies in Scandinavia and in the Eurozone.”
FotoInsight Ltd prints with CEWE COLOR AG in Germany and CEWE COLOR LTD in the UK. Generally photo services printing with CEWE COLOR were recognised by the testing foundation to offer a bigger choice and a higher and more consistent print quality than other photo services tested [source: www.test.de/Fotokalender-Zwoelf-Fotodienste-im-Test-4446633-0/].
Mr Brumann adds: “The photo printing business is very sensitive to the consumer’s willingness to holiday and spend. It lags the economic cycle by about six months. FotoInsight is unable to rely on its UK and Irish business alone, needing growth in markets where the economy is still growing. Companies, regardless of their size, should treat the Common Market as what it says in its name. Though this may require hiring staff able to speak other European languages, which the British school system is increasingly failing to provide.”
Export driven businesses tend to be run by more flexible business people, which often allows them to thrive in recessions; but Brumann warns: “Only try to sell in Europe if your quality is top-notch.”

FotoInsight entices to the photo book experience printing a free booklet for first time users
Printing photo books from own pictures is arguably the fastest growing product in the photo processing industry. In view of the popularity of photo books in the USA and Europe it is surprising that they still live a niche existence in Britain. One of the self proclaimed European leaders in personal photo book printing, the Cambridge company FotoInsight Limited is offering a £5.99 photo booklet print for free to showcase its quality as a trial offer to new customers of the photobook service at FotoInsight (through an £8 voucher the remaining cost including delivery is £1.79).
In the year 2006 over 3 Million individual photo books and photo calendars have been printed by photo labs and printers world wide. Andrew White, Internet Sales Manager at FotoInsight production partner, explains: “We are a little bit behind Germany and France, where photobooks are huge. You only have to show somebody one, though and they immediately want to know how to do it. Therefore this trial will be UK exclusive.” FotoInsight hopes to provide the opportunity to trial its photo book editing software and experience the complete liberty in the positioning and layering of images, transparent texts, and choice of fonts offered by the "cewe photo book printing" software.
A trial with a free printed photo booklet
Managing Director Klaas Brumann explains why FotoInsight is giving away a free photo booklet print: “We detected that one of the greatest barriers to ordering a photo book is that people expect it to be complicated. A common statement in a photo book test is how surprisingly easy it actually is. With the £8 voucher we want to give everyone the opportunity to test the software and printing quality.” In comparison, a photo book is cheaper than photo prints. Conveniently, it is the time of the year, where such a trial print may serve as a very personal Father’s Day photo gift.
In time for Father’s Day
Photo gifts for Father’s Day are left late and less is being spent than on Mother’s Day. With Father’s spending a growing amount of time with their children this may change. To express appreciation for all Dad has to offer it is good to ask him what he was like growing up and what made him who he is today; asking him about his work — his expertise can be unexpectedly valuable; joining Dad in pursuit of his interests and hobbies. The FotoInsight Managing Director and father of two, Klaas Brumann states: “If photographs of great father-child-events like a ball game, building a tool shed, or an adventure holiday are available, those moments are worth to be immortalised in a printed photo album or booklet. And we are proud to printed photo booklets this within reach of ever digital camera user.”
