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

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

Then there is a photo box from Photo Booth Deluxe worth considering.

What should be achieved?

The field service employees in your company have the opportunity to create and / or update their personal employee photo at a fixed or regularly changing location (e.g. in the casino or the company canteen or HR department).
It is important that this takes place in the form of a self-service process and that additional personnel are not needed on site.
You give your staff the option to always identify themselves to 100% with their personal employee photo.

The staff photos can be independently cut to the optimal format, freed from annoying elements in the background and optionally saved in some formats and aspect ratios.

A suggested solution

You place a photo box set up for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the Katine, at the ID card or at the reception in a relaxed corner.
The space requirement is approx. 1.5m x 1m.
There the employees can sit in front of the photo box, similar to the passport photo machine, and see the instructions for the necessary actions on the screen.

The screen serves as a touch screen in parallel as an input terminal for the required data such as B. Personal identification, name, family name and / or date of birth.
Alternatively, the Photo Box can also be set up so that the data can simply be read in from the employee ID. The information recorded in this way is then later an element of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a data protection screen can also be displayed with a release option for internal / external use of the image.

After the photo of the employee has been photographed, the background of the photo 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 defined position on the final image.

The image is saved in a size and aspect ratio defined by you (e.g. square for the ActiveDirectory). The file name is used to compare the recorded portrait and the internal employee data record. We would be happy to help your IT department determine the interface.

A biometric check and an adaptation to a biometric ID photo are available as an additional expansion stage.
The image output can happen simultaneously in several sizes.
So you always have the right photo for
Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp & Co, Instagram, the CRM system
etc. at hand.

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

Advantages of automated photo processes for professional employee photos

• the employee photo box is significantly more cost-effective than a booked portrait photographer
• automatically created professional staff photos in maximum DSLR quality and studio flash technology
• Optimized throughput speed if many sales representatives are to be photographed in a short time frame
• Sales representatives take photographs according to their corporate design
• optional branding with your motif and logo.
• The name of the employee can also be digitally inserted into the picture without manual rework.
• additional data acquisition before or during the acquisition sequence

How does the photographed person get the picture?

So that not only the CRM system or the ActiveDirectory can enjoy the new photos, the sales representative can choose between three different ways to get his photo digitally.

1. Download from an online gallery
   At the end of the recording, a code is displayed or printed out on the touchscreen, which the sales representative can use to load his or her original photo and the various versions for the various target systems.
2. Enter the e-mail address at the end of the photo sequence.
   The photo taken is immediately sent to the employee's mailbox.
3. Download via QR code from an offline gallery
   The photobox provides a private WLAN which the sales representative must dial into.
   At the end of the photo sequence, a QR code is displayed on the touchscreen. This QR code leads to an offline gallery from which the sales representative can download his photos. In contrast to the online gallery, this path only works in the immediate vicinity of the Photo Box.

Other uses

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

• Production of biometric passport photos and ID photos
• Use at sales force parties (summer party, Christmas party ...}
• Employee photos (as described above)
• Photos of groups of visitors, for example after a presentation
• Photo attraction at customer events & conferences
• Use at trade fairs to create personalized “flyers”

The need for investment

The investment for purchasing a photo box optimized in this way starts at around € 4,400 plus VAT and pays off for companies with around 100 employees.
Of course, there is also the opportunity to test the system in advance 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 purchased immediately.

recommendations

Since the system was introduced in 2019, two systems have been set up permanently in this country and in Zurich.

Both at WWZ AG in CH and at Haufe Lexware, the system is very well received by colleagues.
