Siblings!!

Not so much for Tim .. but the collective brains trust .. tell me how you sell your sibbies.. I just cant seem to get it right, not on any platform ( ie: Pixieset, where I was before here )

Some of the things I have tried =

1. Combine kids in one gallery, have a special Siblings pricelist, which is double the solo-kid pricelist, perhaps even offer a discount at checkout.

Pros: super easy to use, one passcode, all kids in one space, supergood
Negs: Parents freak out at upfront pricing because they cant compute the 2-kid thing.

2. Two kids, two galleries, two passcodes. Have Splash Pop-up that says cant you combine kids, you must order one package, then do the same with 2nd gallery. Even have a helpful video. Parents close pop up asap to see kids then get stuck on why they cant combine a package ( lols, but also, omg, please READ! )

Pros: upfront pricing doesn't seem so bad to parents
Negs: ordering too confusing for most parents


Any ideas from anyone?
My background is kinder - there's 100 kids a week and around I guess 25% of them are sibbos. I work harder, there's more variety and prints to choose from, I want to be paid twice just as if I worked with 2 individual children.

What do you do in your setup??
Thankyou :)

He leanne, think i have said this before and it is just my opinion. Packages are confusing to customers, ditch them. Sitting fee and then al-la-carte your prints. easy done. There has not been a single gallery i have found that makes ordering packages easy.

Thanks Vance!

I do have the "Individual items" tab available also ( a la carte ) where combining doesn't matter .. I even have a "too hard" option whereby you pay me and I make your selections for you.

Being new to Sytist, I probably have to get some more revisions and refinements under my belt. I do like my packages as it streamflows my print/pack flow, but I totally understand where you are coming from - thanks for weighing in! :)
