Online Photo Gallery: PicTime
In 2022 I moved to Pic Time as my online photo gallery provider and it has been a game changer!!! It came as a referral from business coach (link below). I moved from another popular gallery also starting with P. It has a beautiful interface, sleek, and easy to use. Clients have commented “even I can use this, it is so simple”. Pic Time has beautiful AI store technology that shows the clients images in the products. The single most amazing features I love are the automations. There are many automations to install; early bird discounts, expirations and the Simple Sales (more on that below too!). These automations send all the email to clients without me having to remember to do it.
