Hey HN - Inspired by Snapchat and the desire to send real photos when traveling, we built Cardpop. It's an iOS app to design and mail fun postcards in less than a minute.
Looking forward to your feedback.

Re:Show HN: Framepop – Turn photos into framed prints

Our goal was to make framed prints a one-stop shop so we found a framing partner that does every aspect of the final product -- printing, framing, assembling, and shipping. Sorry to hear you had poor results with printing in the past, but ours is done in professional, best-in-class Epson and Canon color-calibrated printers with 10 and 12-color pigmented inks.

The pricing is based on how you customize the frame, as well as the print size, but we could say "Starting at $50" somewhere on the site/in the app.

Hi - We just launched this today in the App Store. We’ll print, frame, giftwrap, and ship any photo on your phone. Mobile photography is more capable than ever, but yet many photos never leave the phone. We’re making it easy to get those photos off your device into a beautiful, ready-to-hang print.
Would love any feedback on the concept, user experience, and potential audiences/use cases.

Yes, the company is now owned by Ticketmaster, but we still received some of our initial investment from YC.

Huge fan of Product Hunt. Show HN is great, but PH just makes it too easy to quickly discover, comment on, and share new products. Not to mention, the community there seems more "real" thanks to names/profile pics.

Thanks. Considering that event management covers a lot of areas, there is definitely some overlap into other spaces. For instance, we do offer lightweight email campaigns and will soon offer custom email invites.

In our opinion, event discovery via a directory isn't that effective. Real discovery comes from social proof and recommendations from friends/connections.
We're working on some things to assist with this, but we're also looking into other channels of mobile commerce (beyond ticketing) that we can monetize.

Thanks Andrew. We found a lot of organizers to be pretty price sensitive around ticketing fees.

The response to the name has been overwhelmingly positive. We still have a ton of people come up to us just to say how much they love the name. Thanks!

I'd say both. We're seeing smaller events than we used to get signup. On the flip side, we're seeing large events signup as well. What is interesting is the variety of events we're now seeing (5Ks included). We're talking to users in these new verticals to see how we can better serve their needs.

Zendesk. They even have a startup program where you can get some months for free. You might have to search around to find it.

With the registration component, we now have a lot more data and value that we can provide to the organizer. Over time we'll give them the right tools to leverage that.

We had three team members working on this and only two good chairs, so we rotated. What you can't see is that we have two couches around the work area.

We've generally been very resistant to outsourcing anything and this is the first time we've ever done it. It didn't come out flawlessly (we had to tweak a lot), but it paid off so we could launch quicker.
