This seems very pricey for what it does. $700 for Model/Influencer video? Fiverr has them for way cheap! I've to say your website is horrible also. Too bright and flashy can't stand it. Looks like a 10 yr old made it. Good luck with the launch.
@amrin Yeah the website is really badly done from a usability perspective and so much of the text is just really hard to read... but I guess the goal is for it to be eye-popping rather than to be an actual good and usable website ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Edit: Lol they made it with Tilda, which is a WYSIWYG site builder like Wix or Weebly...
Cool product. About setting client expectations: How do you handle revision/change requests clients want to implement? Hard to do after the shoot has ended. As agency owner - this is the part that is hard to automate/productize.
@outhipped thank you! At each stage of production we negotiate the concept with clients to align it with their expectations. In particular, we make sure that customer's happy with the brief, references and models (we provide videos of our cast) and we don't start shooting before everything's confirmed by the client. If anything's wrong on post-production stage, we're providing new shooting for free :)
Like Kendrick Lamar says in "Humble" —
I'm so f***n' sick and tired of the photoshop
Show me something natural like ass with some stretch marks
We know that original and authentic content works best. But production is STILL inherently expensive and time-consuming.
So-called high-professional production companies still making content like it was 10 years ago.
Like they’ve never seen the Balenciaga and Gucci campaigns, and never read studies on consumer trends: people don’t trust obvious advertising anymore.
We’re making content with smartphones, charismatic models, and minimum editing.
We execute a 5-part production cycle per 10 days. From briefing to casting to shooting and post-production, we have it covered.
The shortest production cycle ever.
To provide the lowest price, our packages include three videos minimum, $700 each!
Wholesale lets us get the great creators cheap because they are getting more at ones.
Choosing to do a smartphone photo/video puts your product in an appropriate and authentic consumer context.
Increase your ROI and listen to Kendrick:)
Hey everyone! We found the winner of Product Hunt today. It's @iralobanovskaya
You quoted Kendrick? Had no interest in the product until I read that and now I am leaning in. Great job!
No offense, but this looks like a lot of fake comments from accounts with 0-10 upvotes total saying "good luck", "Great idea", "cool", etc. Not what you typically see here on a #1 @rrhoover . Smells like a fake launch to me on a site that is promoting $700 videos that look like they could be done via Fiverr for much much less.
@rrhoover@kraftykyle Seems like someone with a lot of support from my own community my dude. If you're gonna try to flame new products, at least have the decency to list your full name.
@rrhoover@kraftykyle@ivandothetrick If you guys refer to our voters, you'll find a lot of makers from all around the world. And it's all about Piqls — check out our portfolio — to have such a great companies as supporters and clients from the very beginning. Also kinda magic, but that's what we do ;)
Irina, I've been watching your journey on your telegram channel. Thanks for the inspiration and congrats on the launch. Good luck!
UPD: small detail — I'm sure you have an amazing favicon for your site but it's not showing :)
I saw a couple of photoshoots made via piqls ~3 months ago. They were amazing. Super-high quality. And I am speaking of photoshoots during the quarantine (= they were made via smartphones). Huge potential! Good luck to you, guys! ;)
@lena_mazhuha thanks for your support! Despite the circumstances, startups should respond to market's needs and acquire new customers no matter what. We'll keep you posted ;)
Go Ira and team! I know how hard they worked on this amazing new product. Trust me, if you are a D2C business, or an enterprise, a startup or an ecom project - Piqls is for you! UPVOTE!
I love the idea! It’s super promising, definitely has a potential and the future, considering the preferences of generation Z, and bloggers/influences, who “run the world” and tell everyone what to buy and what not to buy - will be perfect match for this idea - I am supper excited to see PIQLS to succeed! 🤗❤️🙌
@vzlondon thanks! You got that right — we help brands to create authentic videos and make products more appealing. We're so excited to bring value to the content production industry by reinventing the process :)
@goldman_artem we're grateful to have you as a client and feature a piece of your content on our main page <3 Hope to make more shootings for you in the future
@iralobanovskaya be aware of such @goldman_artem profiles, He is using fake identities and stole 6 million USD through a fake ICO (initial coin offering), they built a project called CryCash and said that they are partners with so many but all was a lie.
I saw this post regarding Artem Goldman https://crycash-investors.blogsp..., you may search about him and another fake person (Michael Khaimzon) that is stealing money right now through a new company called Pixagon Games.
They are a group of scammers, so be aware.
