Calumet Manchester a Success
Calumet Manchester proved a successful day all round. The air was filled with positivity and an ongoing flow of photographers kept us busy.
The Calumet London event proved a success with all our ranges but no clear winner was announced, but Manchester was a different story. Our Rio album was a clear winner with the Eas-eee albums coming a good second although all the products were well received.
It's always a pleasure speaking “one to one” with photographers and it was an inspiration to hear how keen they were to find quality alternatives to their current product range and to our delight the MTA range seem to be the alternative, especially our repositionable products.
A warm thank you to everyone for supporting us in Manchester and see you soon
Canon Pro Solutions 2011
Day 2 turned out better than day one with even more interest and feedback.
It was inspiring to see so many student photographers attend from a variety of colleges around the UK, they excitement, keenness to learn about our products was a sheer delight and gave the MTA team a fantastic feeling that we to were helping them in their future career choice.
Normally we could easily name the most sought after product, but at this event all our range were in demand, making the 2 days truly successful for not only MTA but everyone that visited out stand
Thank you for your support and to Canon for welcoming us to the event.
Don't forget,
We are in London again on the 15th November at the Photovision Road Show. So come say hello

MTA, the driving force at Brands Hatch
One of the world's most iconic motor racing venues, Brands Hatch plays host to some of the some of the most prestigious events in motorsport in 2011, including the DTM and the FIA Formula Two Championship and yesterday it became the backdrop for the Photovision Show 2011.
After a busy day, MTA were again in the limelight. The comments and Feedback were amazing and listening to what everyone had to say about MTA one element stood out which was our Customer Service, thank you so much for your kind and constructive comments.
Every show we attend or host we always like to see what are clear leaders from our range and yesterday the Rio, Madrid and Eas-eee Range stood out a mile. Not to mention how overwhelmed people were about our Floricolor product and service
Once again, MTA would like to thank everyone that took the time to say hello, talk to us about our products and services and show genuine interest in our range
We look forward to seeing you at another event real soon
MTA : our first sole show
Martin Abraham comments “Having never ever held a sole MTA drop in day before, our day in Wales yesterday was the first event for us as a company. I have to say I was a little apprehensive of what to expect, yes we had attended lots of shows and exhibitions in the past but these events were always with other companies exhibiting and not just MTA. But what an exhilarating day we had, not only was the turnout fantastic but the customer reaction and feedback was perfect. Yesterday has given the whole team at MTA the confidence to host more shows like this around the country'.
The aim behind our day was a simple one, present the whole range giving customers the opportunity of experiencing the products first hand and ask those all important questions and to demonstrate our new Floriware design tool on a one to one basis.
We had been shouting from the rooftops about our new software but the team felt that the personal approach was needed, this way customers got a real opportunity to see this amazing software at work right in front of their eyes and with a team member by their sides. The feedback was uplifting and reassured us that being on the front line for our customers was the only way forward.
It's so nice to come away from an event like this with a huge grin on your face and the team can't wait until we announce the next event.
Thank you Wales for your time
MTA Scores Again
The team had a great day at the Photovision event in Bristol.
Ashton Gate home of Bristol City FC was a fantastic backdrop to this well attended day. So many of you had travelled miles to the event just to see MTA and we can’t thank you enough for giving up your time.
As always feedback is important, to hear such positive comments about all of our products and photographers feeling confident in MTA as a company sends us back to the office wanting to create more for this amazing market.
Thank you so much to everyone who attended the show, we’re sure glad we did.
Photovision Coventry
Thank you to everyone who made the effort to come and see us in Coventry at the Photovision event. We are seeing so much more interest at every show we attend and is just fantastic. Your ongoing support gives our team a real buzz and we can only thank you.
Two years ago we were not even heard of and now it would seem we are recognised as the reputable album manufacturer we had hoped for who provides a first class service. A big thanks to the customer who drove 120 miles to see us at the show, thankfully he found what he was looking for, phew!!
Mandy our new representative is proving very popular at these shows and now has a great range of new customers to visit.
Watch out Windsor here we come, we look forward to seeing you there.
DLK Show : Armagh Ireland
A jam packed week of events finally came to an amazing conclusion at the DLK Show in Armagh Ireland. The venue was the City hotel which offered the perfect backdrop for this event and the attendance was very well received and the photographers were excited at the day's event.
Martin Abraham comments “I have always found customers in Ireland very responsive to our presence at these shows and the DLK Show was no exception. Again we met customers old and new who were full of complimentary comments which is always good to hear. I would like to say a special thanks to photographer Dermot McGeown of Lurgan who said he thought he had died and gone to heaven after seeing some of his old favourites at the show like the traditional albums which he thought had gone forever. I told him that we planned to continue the range as they are still highly sought after from many photographers. Thanks Dermot for your very pleasing comments.
Without question the Tudor album proved extremely popular at the show for MTA, especially as it was the first time we had displayed this range in Ireland. The Rio album caused a great stir of delight as photographers discovered the Rio was sold complete with overlays which allowed them to choose the range to fit their customer's requirements.
All in all, the DLK Show was a huge success for MTA and the team look forward to returning to Ireland in the not too distant future.
The team at DLK worked extremely with the preparation of their show and I think the attendance made it worthwhile. From MTA we would like to thank Kevin and his team who looked after us very well and for hosting a great show.
Photovision Manchester
The 17th May was one not to forget, The whole team at MTA joined forces ready for Photovision show Manchester. The event was nonstop from the moment the doors open till closing. Yet again new and old suppliers really showed their interest in our range and its always great to get positive feedback. Our newest team member Mandy was overwhelmed by the day and overall response. MTA would like to thank everyone that came and said hello and are proud that we were able to meet your needs. As the saying goes, no rest for the wicked as the team get ready to head off to Dublin.
MTA drums up interest at Calumet London
This week MTA had the fantastic opportunity of being part of the Calumet trade show in their London based store on Drummond Street. The flow of people throughout the day was constant and the overall impression the team took from the day was that the photographic industry is on the increase with photographers reporting strong business for the foreseeable future.
News like this only encourages MTA to take more of a stand in the market place and offer a strong arm of support to help push the business further into the black. In the ongoing race to find the market leader product for MTA, London presented a new option. No one product was a clear winner, in fact all products were equally well received which was very refreshing to see.
It is always encouraging to hear feedback from photographers, We were told that as long as MTA continue to offer a wide range of products and ensure we cover all the photographers requirements, in turn we will keep their clients happy.
All round it's a win win situation. Feedback like this is valuable and we do listen, so watch this space as we have much more to announce later this year.The team at MTA would like to thank everyone at Calumet London who worked extremely hard in promoting the event and received a huge response from not only their established customers but many who visited the store for the first time.

Calumet Manchester
A great day out, the warm hospitality that Manchester gives only added to the overall excitement of attending the Calumet Drop-In day. The attendance was really positive and gave us the opportunity of meeting
Some old friends and new photographers plus the added benefit of gaining further understanding of the current market requirements.
There was certainly a buzz in the air and reassurance that business for 2011 is definitely on the increase compared to 2010 which is great news for everyone the industry. Our Rio album received a lot of interest as many had not yet had the chance to view the range, but without a doubt the traditional products displayed received the most attention from the photographers at the show.
If you thought traditional products were finished then think again. It would seem that our conscious decision to carry on with these was a good one so watch this space for new additions.
Martin Abraham comments “I would thank to thank everyone who took the time to come and speak with Karla and myself and to also pass on a special thanks to the team at Calumet Manchester who did a fantastic job in arranging the day and giving us the opportunity of exhibiting our products.

Yet again another inspiring day, was a pleasure meeting so many people and MTA made some great new contacts, which only helps us to help you.
It would be no surprise if we said the ever popular Madrid range was in demand, but it was so refreshing to see our newly launched Rio Range create a storm in Herts.
The next wave of excitement at the show was the massive interest in the Floribox, a shear delight to see the expressions on peoples faces when they saw the quality and price available to them.
Yet again, MTA would like to thank everyone for their support and the kind feedback which inspires us to do more, we look forward to returning soon
Photovision kicks off in Edinburgh
MTA had a great positive day, the show was very well attended by photographers and they made sure we were kept busy all day.
The range was very familiar to most photographers who attended, but at Photovision they had the great opportunity to take a close up and personal look at the range and ask any questions they had.
Floricolor UK become the most popular concept for the day and attracted huge attention, especially to those that have never seen the product before, In a recent interview Martin Abraham explained how their aim was to launch Floricolor into the market place to offer the next level in innovation with superb quality and never compromise on the price.
The attendance demonstrated there was a real need for more of these shows, something we like to see change in the future.
MTA would like to thank everyone for their support and the kind feedback which inspires us to do more, we look forward to returning soon
