18、nded up on the side of the road spinning its wheels. We were only doing about $1 million in business a year, and we simply were not able to make money any more on film-based products. The only way for the business to grow was to take a leap of faith, My business partner, Webb White, and I scrapped e

19、verything in late 1999 and reinvented the company as a digital photography printer. We woke up very early to the fact that the digital production processes lent themselves to a much smaller percentage of material and labor consumption, thereby giving us the margins we needed to survive and prosper o

20、ver time. Speaker 2 By early 2002, White House Custom Colour had gone from 100 percent film to 100 percent digital. The companys repositioning vision had proven to be correct. In 2000, there were 1,700 to 1,800 professional finishing labs around the country that focused on our niche of the industry,

21、 which is finishing for professional portrait and wedding photographers. They either made the switch or have gone out of business. Today, there are maybe 150 to 200. We decimated the competition in the North-Central United States because digital technology and the Internet made us a national player.

22、 We have customers in all 50 states and all the provinces of Canada. Our nearest direct competitors now are a company in Fargo and a company or two in Waterloo, Iowa.

Many of our competitors were $5 to $20 million-dollar companies that had invested heavily in their f

24、ilm infrastructure and wanted to protect that $4 to $5 price. As digital processing gained traction industry wide, the staff guided numerous customers through the transition, showing them how they could cut their finishing costs by half or more by investing around $10,000 in a digital camera and dig

25、ital workstation. By the time our competitors had begrudgingly followed our lead, we had built up significant momentum which continues to this day. Speaker 4 I joined White House Custom Colour in 1996 as an equal partner with White, who founded the company in 1978. Though White continues to share ow

26、nership responsibilities, he has turned over daily operational responsibilities to me. These days, White devotes most of his attention to the Photographers Guild, the St. Paul photography studio he owns. Speaker 5 Where we beat our competition hands down, day in and day out, is the attention we give

27、 to our clients when they have a problem. As soon as they call us or send us an e-mail, were on it. We also provide a significant amount of photographic education through various organizations that teach our customers how to be better photographers and better businesspeople.
