Our take
Shutterfly is an online platform for personalized photo gifts. The company has been one of the most prominent success stories of the age of eCommerce, riding high as consumers became comfortable relying on the internet to provide authentic gifts for their loved ones.
The family of brands has grown impressively since its founding in 1999 through the growth of its flagship product as well as a series of acquisitions with impressive synergies.
For example, an acquisition of school photo leader, Lifetouch, for $825 million has enabled the company to profit from the opportunity to sell more items that can be customized with professional shots of a parent’s children.
The biggest challenge for Shuttefly will be to continue leading the way in personalized gifts despite competition from emerging startups. That may not be much of a concern for its leadership given the company’s impressive acquisition record and continuing customer growth.
