Business And Discount Opportunities

Looking for ways to expand your business, earn discounts or extra income, or learn new skills? The PBM Reseller Program allows you to provide a new product or service to your customers, purchase products at a 10%-30% discount, co-brand PBM books with your business name or logo, utilize pre-made themes to create layouts, learn digital scrapbook design, and develop and market your own photo book business! (We are NOT a Multi-Level Marketing Company, so you'll never have to host a party!)

Reseller Program

PBM's Reseller Program is offered to individuals or businesses who promote, sell, and/or create PBM products in order to meet their customers' needs and obtain special rewards and benefits for their efforts. When a PBM Reseller sells a PBM product, everyone wins: PBM and the reseller both profit, and the customer gets a dual benefit--a quality product and peace of mind that their memories have been preserved.

We have designed the PBM Reseller Program to encourage easy participation. In order to create a mutually beneficial relationship between PBM and its resellers, PBM offers a variety of affiliate and reseller options to meet all levels of need.

Whether you are interested in using our products as a marketing tool for your business or in creating a comprehensive home-based photo book business, our carefully designed program provides need-based benefits in several categories, including sales, marketing, training, and support.

As a PBM Reseller, you can:

* Provide a new product or service to your customers
* Purchase products at a 10% to 30% discount, depending on your reseller classification
* Include your business name or logo in the book next to ours
* Utilize pre-made themes to help you quickly place photos on pages
* Become proficient in digital scrapbook design
* Obtain support in developing and marketing your own photo book business

Still Not Sure?

If you are still not sure whether being a reseller is right for you, consider this. We will allow you to "bank" your discount. In other words, familiarize yourself with our products. All of your orders will be recorded under a personal customer account number. If you decide to become a PBM Reseller within six months of ordering your first book, we will apply the appropriate discount against all of your prior purchases. For example, if you purchase four books for $100 each and within six months decide to become a Creator Reseller, we will give you an $80 credit (20% X $400 in prior purchases) to apply towards any applicable reseller fees and/or future purchases.

Why PBM?

With a host of photo book options available on the web, what distinguishes PBM? Here are a few reasons why PBM is an invaluable resource to resellers:

Comprehensive Service

PBM provides valuable services to both its customers and its resellers.

PBM provides its customers a comprehensive photo book design service. Most photo book products offered on the web require the consumer to use proprietary online software that is not compatible with all computers. The client uses this software to place photos in a limited layout with minimal design. The client then uploads the photos to the company's server. In contrast, PBM does the hard work for the client and offers services and products specifically tailored to meet the needs of the average consumer, digital scrappers, and traditional scrapbookers. These products and services include prints, photo restoration, and custom design work.

PBM provides its resellers with valuable services and support to help them reach new customers, explore new opportunities, and streamline their design process. While resellers are eligible for profit generating discounts, they are also eligible to receive the tools and training to create and sell their own photo books. Sales leads will be provided directly to resellers in warranted situations.

Uncompromised Quality

Our books are guaranteed to be of the highest quality available. We print high-quality acid-free pages on 78# cover stock. The covers are custom made to order, and professionally sewn and bound. We offer foil stamping on the spine and cover, hand-made paper end-sheets, premium satin end-sheets and custom cover images. Our cover images are printed on vinyl in 8 colors, then coated with a museum grade veneer. They will not fade or scratch.

Genuine Commitment

We believe that together we can create a niche for ourselves in the digital scrapbooking and photo book making market.

  • PBM's goal is to build mutually beneficial alliances in order to deliver complete photo solutions for our clients, while at the same time providing opportunities for resellers to generate additional business, revenue, and/or skills.
  • Our mission is to meet the needs of consumers to organize, preserve, and share their photos so as to build lasting memories.
  • Our vision is to make PBM a nationally recognized company, and to create a community of talented individuals dedicated to sharing and developing innovative and fun ways to preserve life's stories.
  • PBM is more than a printer. We are aggressively forming key alliances with software companies and digital scrapbook designers. We invite you to join the Reseller Program and become a part of the PBM family.
