We also operate the White Rock Beach Gallery year round weather permitting. Some of our retailers have had sales in the thousands at the checkout for a single month with our postcards, greeting cards, and magnets. We have been able to track what people are buying, but through our sales at The White Rock Beach Gallery we get to see who are buying our products. This has been valuable information and product height or placement has taught us to place wildlife products at eye level for the children to tell their parents, “I want that!” Simply greeting people with Hi where are you from? helps repeat sales to people from the same region. Another successful sales pitch is to tell visitors that I have a magnet or postcard with your favorite color(s). With White Rock Beach, BC being a tourist destination for local & world visitors, we have increased sales every year knowing what they will want to buy. Simply watching what draws in potential customers and seeing what they buy is valuable information.

We also offer Photo Restoration services: see PhotoDoctor.ca . Other services or items produced are 3 pins, 3 Lucky coins, postcard packs, logos, business cards, stamps, stickers, T shirts, rack cards, conceptual drawings, posters, and more.

Virtual Edge Communications / Ric Wallace has produced a unique set of postcard sets (ONLY PRODUCTS ON THE MARKET) that documents the start of the Storm of the Century that took out the famous White Rock pier, the helicopter rescue and all the destruction that the 100-year storm caused. Shortly after these were produced they were sold by the City of White Rock to help raise money for the reconstruction of the pier. Having taken over 1300 photos and videos of the storm, the images are sold on photo prints, wall art – metal prints, canvas, acrylic prints, magnets and greeting cards. Because of the success of the Storm of the Century postcard packs, we have assembled many other packs, such as: Sunrise pack, Sunset pack, Pier pack, Crow pack, Tourist pack, Bird pack, Animal pack and many others.

What is “The Virtual Edge?” Simply put… Your Unfair Advantage

What is “The Virtual Edge?”

Simply put…

Your Unfair Advantage

No matter what kind of business you have – big or small – you can get the unfair advantage we refer to as The Virtual Edge over competing businesses. We consider business a game and we play to WIN, in turn generating business for our clients. In business there are usually other companies wanting the same thing. We like to use the analogy of a sled dog team. There can only be one lead dog, as the other dogs are only following the lead. We like the lead dog view as he can see everything – the others are simply looking at dog BUTT.

Visit VirtualEdge.ca for more information and contact info. We cater to businesses worldwide. If you are in Newfoundland, Ontario, California, New Zealand — NO PROBLEM, we are only a click or email away.

The above image shows the last 100 visitors on WhiteRockBeach.ca

Virtual Edge Communications & WhiteRockBeach.ca are excited the visitors to our site have been increasing daily. The above map shows the last 100 visitors to the site. We even have visitors from Canada’s other coast on the Atlantic Ocean, in St John’s, wanting to see what is going on in White Rock Beach in beautiful British Columbia. Another site we run had over 500,000 visitors last year and recently as many as 14,000 visitors in a 3-day period. On WhiteRockBeach.ca we are logging visitors from Argentina, New Zealand, Sweden, Japan, etc.

If we can put White Rock Beach on the map, just imagine what we can do for you.
Through our parent company (the people that own all the toys we use), Virtual Edge Communications, we offer website design, digital photography, and digital video with professional titling and special effects. With our writing/editing/design services we offer the following: press releases, brochures, flyers, manuals/reports, newsletters, eBooks, resumes, and cover letters. We don’t simply cater to large companies; small businesses or even individuals wanting exposure can use our services.

We shoot more than just pretty sunrises and sunsets.

We photograph just about everything!
