If customers ship their prints to my store for free, how do they know when to pick them up?
When the tube of prints arrives at your store it will be clearly labeled as a LocalFramer.com order. On the packing slip it will give you the customer's
name and contact information. As soon as you receive the order you should alert the customer that the package has arrived so that they can come
into your shop and custom frame it.

How do I know that I will be credited for the sales online?
Because LocalFramer.com markets to its own customers and is used by local frame shops to market to their customers, it is important that you give
out your own custom URL for your site to ensure you get credited for sales, for example, www.localframer.com/BobsFrameShop. As long as you give
out your full URL, you will always be credited for all sales. Visitors who go directly to www.localframer.com will not result in any commission payment
to you; however those visitors will be able to ship their prints to your frame shop for free.

How can I use my web store as a sales tool?
Physical stores are limited by a small amount of space to showcase products. LocalFramer.com gives your customers a catalog of over 200,000 art
prints to browse that would never fit in any physical retail location. It works much like a catalog that is easier to browse and takes up less room.
All of our products that ship to your store will ship for free as well. Most of our entire selection is also available to ship out to you the same day.
With the site as a selling tool the customer also doesn't have to browse while they are in your shop, you can simply give them your website address
and they can select the piece of art from their home and have it shipped to your store,
