Latest news - May 2011

New studio open soon!

Launching in May is the first Barrett & Coe owned studio. This will be a flagship studio, along with David MacDonald’s portrait studio in Ware.

The Norwich studio is intended to be the forerunner to a number of Barrett & Coe owned studios throughout the UK to compliment the opening of franchise studios. The target is to open 20-30 studios this year, mainly franchised, but with some company owned.

Barrett & Coe beat the recession!

We are just five months into 2011 and already four of our ex-students from this year’s courses have opened Barrett & Coe studios in the last two months.

Carl Reeve, who has opened in Hampshire, sold a 24” black and white framed image for £575 from his first family sitting. This came from an Activity Superstore booking, one of Barrett & Coe’s many portrait contracts. Carl also booked his first wedding selection at the basic price of £1,395 (with orders this should amount to around £2,000) before his wedding course had finished. Carl said “Thanks to all your team, I am so motivated!”.

Ian Wilson, recently opened in Caversham, Berkshire says “I just wanted to let you know I’ve sold my first Emma’s Diary Platinum Collection (valued at £710), among others, and after only 5 weeks of being up and running!! Thanks for the support – it’s been brilliant”.

Stuart Turner, whose studio is in Edinburgh, is off to a flying start with one of our national contracts, Groupon. He received 164 “paid for” family sittings in the first twenty four hours of advertising his new Barrett & Coe studio on their website.

Another Barrett & Coe studio has been opened in Bagshot by Brenda Wooldridge, who is an established, experienced photographer, who wants to take advantage of all the Barrett & Coe marketing opportunities to boost her business.
