Five Betson Execs Are First Face Place Certified Photobooth Distributors

GREENVALE, NY -- Apple Industries held its first workshop for its Face Place distributor certification program on May 17 at its headquarters here. Participants in the inaugural certification class came from Betson Enterprises, the nation's largest equipment distributor. Five Betson officials earned the designation of Apple-Certified Distributor.

Apple's certification program is designed to make distributors experts on everything about Face Place photobooths. The curriculum covers networking technology, the Smile 2.0 operating system and software upgrades, useful Web tools, graphics updates and photo quality. Another service requiring mastery is Apple's new product fulfillment program, which enables customers to buy everything from totes to keychains and coffee mugs with their Face Place photos emblazoned on the item.
