Imagine transforming a clutter of dusty old family films into a sleek, modern viewing experience. Robert Marks, CEO of Projector, explains the compelling reason behind this new digital video service in this interview with Gary Pageau of the Dead Pixels Society. Marks' entrepreneurial spark ignited from a personal need to easily access and enjoy his own family's cherished visual memories, leading to the creation of a unique platform that's been called 'Netflix for your home movies.'
This episode unpacks the nuts and bolts of Projector's annual subscription model and its standout feature: Turning photo albums into cinematic slideshows right on a TV screen. The conversation leads us through the user-friendly design and Marks' vision for a future where our personal histories are as streamable as our favorite shows.
Lastly, Marks gives us a behind-the-scenes tour of how Projector's growth was propelled by affiliate marketing, rather than costly advertising. He shares insights on forging fruitful partnerships, such as those with The Photo Managers and IPI Photo, which helped garner an enthusiastic early adopter community. The discussion reveals the strength in leveraging established networks and the low-overhead, high-reward business model that's setting Projector apart in the digital legacy space.
