Hi there I'm Daniel ,got a couple of questions if anyone can help.
1. When it comes to taking photos of your products , is it best to hire a professional photographer ? And can anyone recommend anyone ?.
2. Barcodes ,I understand these are purchased from gs1 , are these the only ones I would need ?
Any help on these questions ,would be amazing cheers

Take the photos yourself

* Get a photo box booth on Amazon or something similar (dependent on the size of your product)

* Camera phone

* And watch some YouTube videos on how to take professional product photos.

Some products are very easy to photograph on your own with a simple photo studio. Amazon sells a very good one, google "Amazon basic's portable photo studio", you can use your phone's camera or an entry-level DSLR camera, other products might be harder to photograph at home, and you might need a professional photographer, such as products that need to be modelled (you need to consider the lighting, the backdrops, instructions to the model etc)

If you are selling your own products it's worth investing in a trademark and becoming 'brand registered' on Amazon - you can then send in product with no barcode (and, therefore, no continuing costs with GS1)
