A Message from the CEO

What another tremendous season this has been! From Imaging USA and WPPI to Boot Camp Seminars with Mitche Graf and Captivated by the Light with Ed Pierce, it’s been a whirlwind of a start to 2008, and it’s hard to believe that the spring season is just about here - even an extra day in February didn’t slow things down.

The rush of 2008 aside, I’m awed by the team here at Collages.net and simply floored with everything they’ve been able to deliver to you this past year. Our four new product launches, an enhanced technology platform, our new Mac upload tool, expanded Web support, Premium Website, Rewards Program, and our Build Your Brand educational resources were made possible only by the incessant brainstorming and dedicated teamwork of each and every department. I feel fortunate to be able to work with such a bright, energetic crowd, and am confident that the team’s talents and passion will continue to deliver you revolutionary products and services in the many years ahead.

I am also tremendously grateful to you, our dedicated photographers and loyal customers. Without your hard work and commitment to excellence, Collages.net would not have been able to hit such milestones as ranking 37 in the 2007 Philadelphia 100® or being awarded with our seventh, eight, and ninth PPA Hot One Awards – all in one year! The enthusiastic responses we’ve been receiving all across the country confirm our belief that you are looking for flexible and creative innovation in every aspect of your business. Your insight regarding how we can help you, from proofing to albums and everything in between, has allowed us to make your desires a reality by helping us to develop the best products in the industry.

I would like to extend a special thanks to all of you, especially everyone at of D2 Photography, Carrie Workman Photography, PW Photography, TriCoast Photography, Boucher Photography, BLR Life Photography, Candy Apple Photography, Limelight Photography, and The Shooting Gallery Photography whose beautiful images help make our booths look phenomenal at trade shows across the country. Collages.net truly is powered by our photographers – from awe-inspiring images to creative ideas, YOU are the driving force behind our company, and we are excited to continue this fantastic partnership with all of you - into 2008 and beyond.

It’s been a remarkable “off-season”, and as the season finally begins to kick into high gear, my best wishes to all of you for productive, profitable, and fun year!

As always, best of luck,

Kevin Casey
