“We’re creating experiences and offerings that allow us to
revolutionize the photo and customization category at retail for
our members,” said Charles Moore II, Omni Senior Merchandising
Director, Photo and Customization, Sam’s Club. “With partners like
Amaze Software and Shoott, we’re positioned to transform our
services into a next-gen personalized product and photo shopping
experience. Knowing our members can capture and make memories in a
flash is exciting.”
Photo Services
Convenience is something Sam’s Club members expect, and this new
platform is not only convenient but fast. The enhanced photo
editing design tools enable speed and convenience for the user,
taking only 30 seconds to four minutes to edit and layout up to 50
images following photo upload.
Sam’s Club has also entered into the first retail partnership
with Shoott, a female-led company focused on making professional
photography more affordable and accessible. Shoott services will
initially be available in 60 cities beginning today with plans to
expand to additional markets in the future. To mark the
partnership, Shoott is offering Sam’s Club members up to 65% off
total retail value as part of its holiday promotion.
“Shoott’s mission is to provide an ‘affordable luxury’ photo
service that helps families all over the U.S. get amazing photos,”
said Shoott CEO and co-founder Jenifer Tsay. “We’re so excited
about the photo products that Sam’s Club offers to help transform
Shoott’s digital photos into premium photo products that families
can cherish forever.”
Prioritizing Personalization
Sam’s Club’s ambition is to create the most versatile platform
in the market for customizable products. So, ahead of the holiday
season, Sam’s Club is taking its personalization offering to a new
level by adding apparel.
Customizable holiday sweaters allow members to personalize
clothing for friends and family – taking full advantage of the ugly
holiday sweater trend. The new service, which will include seasonal
offerings in the future, gives members access to templated designs
they can personalize.
“We’re looking closely at customization and laying the
groundwork to set Sam’s Club up as a destination for quality
personalized items that you can customize for less,” said Moore.
“The entire services team works every day to deliver more value to
our members inside the club and online with expanded offerings that
deliver additional benefits to our members.”
