Small Businesses Are Priced Out of Professional Retouching

Small e-commerce businesses face a dilemma: professional retouching costs $10–$40 per image, but poor product images hurt conversion rates. Many small sellers compromise with DIY editing or skip retouching altogether.

The result is a competitive disadvantage. Big brands with professional imagery outperform small sellers who can't afford the same level of visual quality.
