Here are a few examples of individuals who benefit from our Friends with Benefits program:
Someone thinking about buying a pack:
As part of the Best Price Guarantee, you automatically get the largest discount we offered as part of our pre-order process. F-Stop usually started at a $50 discount for those individuals who place an order sight unseen with minimal specs, as more and more details emerge (and it gets closer to release date) for the new items that discount is incrementally reduced to zero. So for an extra $45 you can join at 1st Base (Silver tier) and receive a free Accessory, the Welcome kit, cross ship warranty, test drive and a set of loaners for a trip.
Someone sure they are going to purchase a pack:
For almost the same price as a pack you get so much more. Members at the 2nd Base (Gold tier) get a pack, ICU, and accessories free. The cost of those pieces easily exceeds the cost of the membership. In addition to the free pack and ICU’s you get to Test Drive new product and borrow gear through our loaner program.
A Photographer that takes different types of trips:
The real strength of the Friends with Benefits program is the ability to borrow gear. If you have lots of trips planned with a variety of setup, staff, and destinations then 3rd Base (Platinum tier) is perfect for you. Not only do you get packs and gear to keep, but you get loaner gear for several trips. Add to that the Test Drive, Cross Ship, plus the rest of the perks and you are sure to always have the right gear for every shoot.
