Good idea for delivering photos to clients?

10 years 17 hours ago #371829 by Crammer
What I'm looking for is the best priced USB thumb drives for client photos.  Ideally it would be cool to put my logo on these thumb drives.  First off, what do think about this idea?  Also, what about where to find these asides from buying from Radio Shake at 400% markup?

Google is your friend. (Not really, but it's kinder than the alternative.)

A quick search reveals many providers of custom printed thumb drives. If you are set up with a lab (you are, aren't you?) see if they offer the product. If not, look into the pro labs, get an account, and use them.

Since not every device has an optical drive, everyone is talking about thumb drives. They're still erasable, and I still don't like them. But that seems to be the trend.

Oh, and I don't think you want the best price, you want the best, most reliable product. Charge accordingly.

400%? No wonder Radio Shack is in trouble.

I don't know if I would want to trust photos on one of these for any period of time.  Too easy to misplace!

I used dropbox so much it hurts.

:agree: that's what I was going to suggest, dropbox.  Quicker, convenient and less expensive for everyone.

Nice way to brand yourself, but not the route I would go.  I believe in keeping cost down.  So not to copy others, but you can't beat Dropbox.  Drag and drop, then share.

I have to agree with the last few posts. Put them online, and let your clients worry about the storage media they will use. I have Zenfolio which would work as well. You would just want to assign them a password to see, and download the photos.
