Save big on Photobook specials, canvas and more with RapidStudio

Want to know where to find the best photobook specials South Africa? You’ve found it! RapidStudio is South Africa’s leading photobook company, unmatched in value for money, quality and service second to none. Take a look at the reviews below to see what our customers say about our products and service.

Today especially, value-for-money is key. RapidStudio prides itself in offering the best prices in the market. Our first principal is well-made, high quality photo books at a great price. Plenty of photobook companies offer discounts like 50% off regularly but when we compare the product with the total amount paid, RapidStudio’s standard, non-sale pricing is often still cheaper than the heavily discounted price of a competitor. (RapidStudio offers amazing specials too. Keep reading for the 5 best ways to find photobook specials).

Next is quality. A hardcover photobook or ultimate range photo album is a value purchase. They are built to house life's most special moments and should endure handling and adoration. These photobooks are made with this kind of quality standard in mind.

The quality and pricing spectrum is something that applies to canvas in particular as quality across service providers vary greatly. The biggest difference comes in how the canvas is stretched across the frame. It is a far more technical and time-consuming process to stretch the canvas professionally to ensure it will not sag over time. RapidStudio uses the highest industry standards, equipment and experienced artisans to stretch and only uses high quality canvas fabric and hand-made wooden frames for preparing your canvas. Don’t be fooled by cheap canvas options out there - if the price looks too good to be true, it usually is and your canvas will sag and look tired in no time.

Making the most of the photobook specials can mean getting a high quality, luxury album for a cheap photobook price. How?

1. Sign up to the weekly newsletter: photobook specials run most weeks and cover a wide range of products.

2. Buy vouchers in bulk when they’re on sale: A photobook voucher can be used multiple times until the balance is depleted*. So when a sale is on, think ahead to future orders, and upcoming birthdays or special events where you’d like to gift someone with a photobook voucher. Buy it at the sale price but get the purchasing power of the full voucher amount. PS. if you’re buying it as a gift no one will ever know you got it at a sale price - bonus - great way to get organised with gifts ahead of time!

3. Bulk photobook order discount: If you order more than 5 copies of the same hardcover photo book, you qualify for a 10% volume discount**, 20+ copies = 20% discount, 50+ copies = 30% discount

4. Re-sellers discount: Are you a professional designer/photographer on-selling photobooks and wall canvas etc to your customers? If you reach a minimum volume and have active website/socials*** that show you are re-selling you can apply to RapidStudio’s Professional Alliance Program.

5. Buy Canvas Sets and Save: RapidStudio offer massive savings on canvas’s when you buy them as a set. Many people aren’t quite sure how to lay out different canvas sizes and combinations on the wall to look good. RapidStudio does. Our team of designers have prepared canvas sets in complimentary sizes and layouts that will make any wall come to life. Canvas sets are priced so that you benefit from the bulk order discount value.

Finally, quality and price are key, but the final criteria for a legendary service provider is customer service. What kind of service can you expect if you need a little extra help with your photobook order or if something’s not right? RapidStudio has a dedicated support team ready to assist over the phone or email. Every single day at RapidStudio begins with a meeting between the customer support team, quality control department and the company CEO to discuss any quality production issues or customer complaints that may have arisen the previous day. In this way, any customer or quality issues are dealt with promptly and the lessons-learned are captured, shared with the team and fed back to production. In this way, not a single quality issue or customer complaint is lost or needs to recur as it is understood and shared by the entire team and this knowledge informs our practise in production to make sure that particular issue is addressed at the source and never needs to be repeated.
