Who this is for: Local business owners in South Florida

City Deals needs three types of photos to build your printed ad and your QR video. We need a shot of your storefront, photos of your best products, and a picture of your team. These photos help about 10,000 homes in your area see what you do.

The storefront and team

People need to recognize your shop from the street. Take a wide photo of the front of your building during the day. Make sure your sign is easy to read. You should also take a photo of yourself or your staff inside the shop. Local customers like to see the faces of the people they are buying from.

Mail piece for owners in South Florida
Your photos will appear in our South Florida magazine.

Product and service shots

We need clear photos of what you sell. If you run a restaurant, take photos of your best dishes. If you are a plumber or a roofer, take photos of your tools or a finished job. These images go into the 30-second video that people see when they scan your VIDEO code. Use a normal phone camera for these shots.

Photo quality checklist
  • Turn on all the lights in your shop.
  • Clean the camera lens on your phone.
  • Keep the phone steady to avoid blurry shots.
  • Do not use zoom; walk closer to the object instead.
  • Make sure there is no trash or clutter in the background.

How we use your photos

Every ad we print has two QR codes. One is a VIDEO code. Your package includes a 30-second video. Ask us what materials we need and how the video gets made. The other is a DEAL code. This shows your offer and has buttons for calls and maps. You do not need a City Deals app to see these.

The DEAL code shows your shop location and phone number.

Sending your files

You can email your photos to info@citydeals.ai. If you have many large files, ask us for a link to upload them. We currently mail to Kendall, Westchester, and Miami Lakes. About 10,000 homes is the number we advertise for each area. If you need help with social posts or websites, these are sold separately.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use photos from my website?

Yes, if they are high resolution. Small or blurry photos do not look good in print.

How many photos should I send?

Send between 5 and 10 photos. This gives us enough variety for your 30-second video.

Do I need a professional photographer?

No. Most modern phone cameras work well. Just make sure the lighting is bright.
