Business Gameplan For Photo & Video Professionals

FREE BUSINESS GAME PLAN FOR PHOTO & VIDEO PROFESSIONALS:

Complete the form below, and I'll use your answers to put together a list of action steps that, when implemented, will help you grow your photography or videography business.

A lot of photographers and videographers don't really know what they should do to grow their business.

This is where a game plan can help, because it will tell you what you need to do to bridge the gap between where you are today and where you want to be.

Got questions?

A lot of photographers and videographers lack a cohesive game plan to get them to where they want to be as a business. The business game plan that I send you will be a list of action steps that I would recommend for your business, based off the answers you give to the questions listed below, and will include the following categories:

Photo & video services
Current challenges
Marketing and sales
Pricing
Team management
Business operations
Personal development

For example, if you need to make improvements to your marketing and sales processes, I'll provide some specific suggestions for what you could build into your business over the next few months to address that.

How detailed will it be?

This game plan will give you enough to run with if you'd like to do it all on your own. For a more detailed plan, that would be something I could help you implement through my business coaching sessions, should you choose that option.

I'm not going to annoy you with a sales pitch or anything like that. Here's how this will work:

You complete the form below, answering whatever questions you would like to answer. Just note that the more details you can share, the better the game plan will be.
I'll send you an email with the game plan (a list of steps that I would recommend you take to develop your business).
What you do with this game plan is totally up to you. You can totally implement it on your own, though I know a lot of photographers struggle to follow through on getting these things done. Therefore my hope is that you'll invite me to help you implement this game plan. This is what I've been doing for photographers and videographers since 2015, but there's certainly no requirement or expectation to work with me in any way, shape or form.

I ran my own photography business for 17 years. I started in 1998 shooting film, transitioned to digital in 2003, and grew a successful business operation with a team of photographers. My specialty was real estate and architectural photography, as I really enjoyed that line of work, but I also did weddings and family portraits.

Then in 2015 I sold the business (so if you’re thinking of one day selling your photography business I can certainly speak to that from experience), and started full-time doing business coaching for photographers.

Since then I’ve literally done thousands of private coaching sessions and group coaching sessions, having worked with photo and video professionals across the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Europe and Asia.

How do I help photographers and videographers?

I help photo & video professionals with:

Business systems: Review your current business systems and make any recommendations to help you improve your business.
Marketing: Review what you are currently doing to attract clients and define what you could be doing to get better results.
Sales: Introduce strong sales processes so you convert more potential clients into actual clients.
Pricing: Make sure you are both profitable and consistent with where you want to be as a photographer.
Goal setting: Define your business goals and the steps you need to take to get there.
Team development: I can help you introduce systems and processes that will help you build a team so you don't have to do everything yourself and can take time off when you want to.
Website: Define the changes you might need to make to your website to attract your dream clients, and work on your SEO so you're found on page one of a local search.
Social media: Review your social media posts and, if appropriate, recommend any changes to help you increase sales.
General support: Running a business on your own can be a lonely business, so I also function as an advisor & friend who can encourage business owners to stay focused, make better decisions and feel more confident in the work they do.

Do I work with photographers and videographers in all industries?

Yes, I do help all sorts of photographers and videographers - portrait, wedding, event, corporate, pet, commercial, architectural, real estate.

Note: You don't need to answer every question, but the more you do answer, the better the plan.
