Before you finalize your plans for a bar or bat mitzvah, a wedding or other big event - Have you heard about the Magnet Man?
The Magnet Man takes photos of you and your guests and produces instant take-home photo magnets, right on-site at your event.
David Freedman is the Magnet Man. His photo magnets are the ultimate take-home photo favor for your guests. And the Magnet Man does more than take pictures and produce photo favors. He creates a fun party event in itself.
Mr. Freedman clearly enjoys this aspect of his business. “My photo magnet party favors allow guests to enjoy re-living the party. People always tell me that the magnets are a constant reminder of how much fun they had.”
The Magnet Man’s products actually include a lot more than magnets. From his humble beginnings with simple black-and-white photo magnets, the Magnet Man now offers color magnets, magazine covers, color photographs (4x6 and 5x7’s), and provides you, the customer, with a free CD-ROM of all the images taken at the party. The Magnet Man’s graphic artist can create personalized, imbedded color frames and text for your all your magnets and photos, using your special theme or your institution’s logo and fonts.
Mr. Freedman, who lives in Clifton Park, NY and is based in Troy NY, is a professional photographer and film cameraman who has been in the event photography business since 1989.
In addition to his Magnet Man business, Mr. Freedman is also a highly-sought-after professional cameraman and director of photography on advertising and training film productions for clients including major international corporations. “The Magnet Man is still my favorite thing to do, though. As much as I do very much enjoy film work, the actual process of filmmaking is not always nearly as much fun or immediately gratifying as people might imagine. It is often more like, uh, a long hike through deep snow.”
Mr. Freedman says he has always loved photography, and studied photography in high school and college. “I started out in business doing regular event photography and videos, which I continue to do to some extent. But I started doing the photo magnets, and it has just blown up beyond my wildest dreams, so that is now my primary focus.”
He says the key has been his painstaking development of a unique process for creating high-quality instant photo magnets quickly. “Some people might think it sounds simple, but believe me, making high quality photos and being able to transfer that and produce magnets or 5x7’s out of them - on-site, efficiently, in high volume, and making it a fun experience for each and every guest - is not simple.”
The Magnet Man has been in business 1989, beginning with just Mr. Freedman. It is now the Capital District's oldest photo favor company, and has expanded to four crews traveling around the Northeast for bar/bat mitzvahs, weddings, sweet Sixteen’s holiday parties and corporate events. Now Mr. Freedman has expanded the Magnet Man business to Southern Florida. “Clients asked me to do some events for them down there and it was so successful that we never left, so to speak..
And he is keenly concerned with training his teams and maintaining quality control.
“The Magnet Man is both a quality product and an entertainment service. I train my teams in the actual magnet production parts, but just as importantly, in the customer entertainment parts. My unique production process has been part of this. But I have also been fortunate to find people who are extremely talented and conscientious and who share my standards of product and service quality. Every person trying to grow a business knows that so much depends on finding people who will truly represent your business at the highest level of quality.”
The Magnet Man also provides his services to corporate and institutional events, such as trade shows, holiday parties, and fund-raisers, and travels all over the Northeast. Amongst his major corporate and institutional clients are: General Electric, The Jewish Museum, the New York Racing Association (NYRA), Albany Medical Center, Albany Molecular, and the Albany Times Union.
Currently now serving over 150 events a year, Mr. Freedman has plans to continue to “spread his magnet magic” across the country.
Says Mr. Freedman, “It’s kind of funny, ‘Magnet Man’ kind of started as a nickname, but now it has grown into a brand name. I didn’t start out trying to get this big. All this expansion has been driven by demand from my customers and their recommendations to friends and family. I like to make my clients happy, so really I am just trying to keep up with making them happy.”
