Selling online is (like any business model) a risk-laden activity. Products may or may not sell and you need to distribute costs lightly and evenly as to not burden the selling price or its profitability. In managing these aspects, the merchants should be cautious in getting a photography vendor that will provide great pictures at a low price to keep things competitive.
As a product photographer for over 10 years, I have determined that many industry colleagues simply do not “get” business. The skilled often insist on only superb quality at a crippling cost; in contrast, the incompetent lack the skills to produce consistent, properly exposed or edited images.
Often many product photographers have only a “one size fits all” style for all of their customers. As I have discovered, different clients have different needs, and sometimes, you can omit some aspects of quality if the pricing and quality are just right.
The problem is, most photographers lack the technical knowledge and equipment to be able to offer abstract customer solutions. Many Product Photography strategies work from their car and their quality shows it. They often image products from a cheap white softbox purchased on eBay and in doing so, their methods undermines the item’s appearance; white is reflected all over the product’s body and all the colours appear washed out. Then they manually 
trace out the item in Photoshop. The net result is a disappointing image.
At Jules Design, we use techniques and processes that produce great quality efficiently. The net result is superb quality at a lower price. Indeed, for premium work- we do charge more; however, our cost structure is a by-product of our commitment to quality and service. Setup, staging, cleaning, photographing and editing takes time and we need a reasonable amount to do this well.
