You don’t need an expensive photoshoot or a designer to build a proper product image gallery.

A study highlighted by CXL showed richer product images lifted conversions by 27 percent. This is why your image gallery matters more than most founders think.

Without AI, getting those images means booking a photographer, renting a studio, and waiting.

I started with one simple shot of Banana Boat’s SPF 30.
The kind of photo sitting in every founder’s camera roll.

Then I used Nano Banana Pro to generate everything the product page was missing:
application shots, texture shots, and real-life context.

In the paid column, I’ll break down the exact setup:

Once you have that workflow, any product can look premium, even if your starting point is a photo taken on your dining table.

The first welcome email is the only message every new subscriber will see.
It sets their expectations for your brand and shapes every email that follows.
If this email misses, retention drops. It’s that simple.

Open it and ask:

“Does this make someone trust us enough to buy?”

The welcome flow gets the most impressions and sets the tone for every future email, so make sure to fix this today, or ask someone in your team to take a look at it.

We personally recommend sending a TEXT only email, coming from the Founder as the first email. It’ll have better deliverability + would feel personal coming from the Founder.

Some messages matter more than others — winbacks, refills, VIP touches, launches. But email can’t guarantee any of them get seen.

Inboxes bury things. Promotions tabs hide them. And when someone hasn’t opened in a while, they miss everything.

PostPilot gives you a channel with guaranteed visibility. It sends a physical postcard to the exact customers you want to reach.

Its like Klayvio but for direct mail.

What you can do with it (real examples)

Direct mail won’t replace your email program. It fills the visibility gap your email program can’t.

The setup is simple:
Upload your customers. Choose the segment. Pick the card. Send.

Email drives retention.
PostPilot covers the moments where being seen is the biggest lever.
