Would you like to keep your inventory of field staff photographs for one of the following areas up to date?

• Internet
• Employee IDs
• Passport photos for travel planning
• HR systems
• the CRM
• Credit cards
• ActiveDirectory
• Exchange
• Outlook

Then there is a photo box from Photo Booth Deluxe worth a moment of your time.

What should be achieved?

The field service employees in your company have the option of creating and / or updating their personal employee photo at a fixed or periodically alternating location (e.g. in the casino or the company canteen or HR department).
It is important that this is achieved in the form of a self-service process and that additional personnel are not needed on site.
You give your teams the chance to identify themselves completely with their own employee photo at any time.

The staff photos are automatically cut to the right format, removed from disruptive elements in the background and optionally saved in various dimensions and aspect ratios.

A suggested solution

You place a photobooth set up for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the HR department, at the ID or at the reception in a quiet corner.
The space requirement is approx. 1.5 mx 1 m.
There, the employees can sit in front of the photo box in the same way as with the passport photo machine and see the instructions for the necessary actions on the monitor.

The monitor serves as a touchscreen at the same time as an input terminal for the required information such as B. Employee ID, first name, family name and / or date of birth.
Alternatively, the photo box can also be configured so that the data can be read out immediately from the company ID card. The information collected in this way then becomes an element of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a data protection screen can also be set up with a release option for internal / external use of the recording.

After the employee picture has been taken, the background of the recording can be automatically exchanged for one or more backgrounds you have specified. The head of each photo is also located, scaled to a specified size and placed in a specified position on the final image.

The image is saved in a size and format defined by you (eg square for the ActiveDirectory). A comparison between the saved portrait and the internal employee data record takes place via the file name. We would be happy to support your IT department in clarifying the interface.

A biometric check and a cut to a biometric ID photo are available as an optional expansion stage.
The image output can take place synchronously in different dimensions.
So you always have the right photo for
WhatsApp & Co, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Outlook, the CRM system
etc. lying ready.

Logically, each file can also be “branded” with the help of the logo and / or the name and position of the employee will be directly visible on the picture.

BENEFITS of automated photo processes for professional employee photos

• The name of the employee can also be digitally added to the photo without manual rework.
• Extra data acquisition before or during the recording sequence
• Sales representatives take photographs according to their corporate design
• automatic branding with your background and logo.
• the employee photo box is significantly more cost-effective than a hired portrait photographer
• Self-made professional staff photos in maximum DSLR quality and studio lighting technology
• Optimized throughput speed if many sales representatives have to be photographed in a short period of time
• if required, RAW data can also be saved

How do the staff get their picture?

So that the CRM system or the ActiveDirectory alone does not benefit from the new photos, the sales representative has three different ways to get his photo as a file.

1. Enter the email address at the end of the photo sequence.
   Then the captured photo is sent immediately to the employee's mailbox.
2. Download from an online gallery
   At the end of the sequence, a code is displayed or printed out on the touchscreen, which the sales representative can use to load his or her original recording and the different versions for the various target systems.
3. Download via QR code from an offline gallery
   The Photo Box provides its own WLAN which the sales representative has to dial into.
   At the end of the photo sequence, a QR code is displayed on the screen. That QR code leads to an offline gallery in which the sales representative can load his pictures. In contrast to the online gallery, this path only works in the immediate vicinity of the photo box.

Further deployment options

To get the most out of your investment, you have the following options:

• Creation of biometric passport photos and ID photos
• Photo attraction at customer events & congresses
• Use at trade fairs to create personalized “flyers”
• Use at sales force parties (summer party, Christmas party ...}
• Employee photos (as explained above)
• Recordings of groups of visitors, e.g. after a lecture

The cost frame

The cost of buying a customized photo box starts at around € 4,400 plus VAT and is worthwhile for companies with around 100 employees.
Of course, there is also the opportunity to try out the system beforehand on a rental basis for € 650 + € 1 / employee photo plus VAT per week.
1/2 of the rent will be credited to the subsequent purchase if the system is taken over directly.

recommendations

Since the implementation of the system in 2019, two systems have been set up permanently in Germany and Switzerland.

Both at WWZ AG in Zurich and at Haufe Lexware, the system is very popular with colleagues.
