How Our Scanning Service Works
|
|
|
|
Let’s
face it, converting your memories (slides,
negatives, photos, and photo
albums), into digital images is an important
task that should be done correctly the first time by a reputable
company with a proven track record that you can trust.
We think it’s important that you get to know us, and our
process when selecting a scanning service to
digitize your valuables. We’re only a phone call
or email away if you have questions. |
|
Ten
Steps to Using Our Scanning Service |
1. Get to Know Us - Take 10 Minutes and Browse our Website |
|
We’ve
helped thousands of people just like yourself
go digital. We’ve learned from our
customer’s and found that trusting a company
with the family heirlooms can be scary. We understand your
concerns. That’s why getting to know us is
so important. We’re a small family owned
business with Mid-Western values. All work on your slides,
negatives, and photos is done in house right here
in Ohio (although we work with clients nationwide). Please take a few minutes to learn about
our scanning services. If you have questions give us a call, 1-800-383-2903,
or send us an email.
We’re here to serve you.

2. Assess Your Needs: Choose from Three Service Levels |
|
Your
memories are important! Selecting the right options
when digitizing them is important.
We’re not a one size fits all scanning and
digitizing service. We realize that Families with
thousands of slides, or
negatives have different needs than a Professional
photographer, and that some of your Snapshots are more valuable
than others. Our goal is to present you with three
options and let you decide which one will best
serve you. It’s a bit like shopping for a car - some
people want the luxury Cadillac, some people want a safe
and secure Volvo, and other people need a fuel efficient
hybrid. Our service comes in three flavors,
Silver - For Families,
Gold - For Special Snapshots,
and Bronze - For Pro’s.
Learn more about these options below.

10. Re-Live Your Past Digitally - Share Memories with Family & Friends |
|
Once
your memories become digital the fun begins. Your scans
work just like any other digital photo.
You can upload them to your favorite photo
sharing site, post and tag friends and relatives on Facebook, order new prints with ease,
create photo books with them, use them
to make a personalized photo gift, email
them, back them up to multiple locations,
edit them, and anything else you do with digital photos.
The possibilities are endless!
More importantly
digital photos never fade, discolor, or age
like traditional photos do. Distributing a copy to the entire
family is easy, just order extra copies of your disks. (We
keep a backup copy on file for thirty days in case you wish
to order extra disks at a later date.) Best of all you'll
never need to worry about a fire, flood,
earthquake, or hurricane destroying your family history
again. Peace of mind is a wonderful thing.
Don't let your memories fade away, preserve them digitally
today!
