Company
Can you briefly introduce yourself?
My name is Francesco Pagano, and I’ve been working at PhotoSì for around 3 years as a Display & Search Specialist. I manage paid advertising campaigns for the web and for the app, with the aim of increasing our online presence via affiliate marketing.
What’s the story and the core business value behind PhotoSì?
PhotoSì S.p.A. is an Italian company that has been in the photo printing business since 1973 and today operates all over the world. We were the first to recognize and exploit the potential of the transition from analog to digital photography: Firstly, in 2006 with the photosì.com website for selling photographic products, and then in 2012 with Europe’s first photo printing app.
Printing emotions is our passion. Thanks to an app and a website that are super simple to use. Our customers can transform their favorite photos into PhotoBooks, Prints, Wall Frames, and personalised Gadgets.
Tell us more about your audience and what types of publishers do you work best?
Italy is our primary market, but we ship our products globally. In the last three years we began to expand into the rest of Europe, especially Spain, France and Germany.
Our audience has the potential to be huge since it includes everyone who loves photography. But our target group consists mainly of women aged 18-55. These are girls (Generation Z and Millennials) and mothers who like to print photos of their family and travels.
For this reason, the ideal publisher is one that offers deals related to holiday periods, seasonal offers, and gift ideas.
What are your payment models?
PhotoSì offers the possibility of paying online with a credit or debit card, PayPal, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. It’s also possible to pay in cash by choosing delivery to one of 8.000 collection points across Italy.
