In this episode of Creatively Connected, we’re diving into the brutal (but honest) reality of building a freelance business. Whether you’re a videographer, photographer, content creator, or any kind of creative trying to make a living doing what you love — this one’s for you.

We talk about:

• Why freelancing feels so inconsistent
• The hard truths no one warned you about
• Why talent alone won’t get you booked
• How to stay in the game when you feel like quitting
• What actually separates successful creatives from the rest

If you’ve been feeling stuck, behind, or like nothing’s working — you’re not alone. And you’re not failing. This path is just hard… but you can make it work.

Want to start booking clients and making real money as a videographer? Watch this.

If I had to start over today—no gear, no connections, no money—this is exactly what I’d do to land my first paid gig.

Most videographers spend years struggling because they focus on the wrong things. They chase gigs instead of building a brand. They underprice their work. They wait for clients instead of going after them. This video breaks down how to skip those mistakes and start getting booked faster.

What You’ll Learn:

• How to get started with the gear you already have (even just a phone)

• The smartest way to build a portfolio from scratch—even if you have zero clients

• Why networking and outreach will get you booked faster than any job board

• How to charge for value, not time, and escape low-budget gigs

• The key business skills every videographer needs to stand out

Being just a videographer isn’t enough anymore.

The industry has changed. More cameras, more competition, and more creators fighting for the same gigs. If all you’re doing is filming and editing, you’re already falling behind.

The videographers and photographers who are making real money? They’re doing MORE than just shooting.

 In this video, I’m breaking down exactly how to:

✅ Position yourself as more than just a camera operator

✅ Build a brand that attracts clients instead of constantly chasing them

✅ Create multiple income streams so you’re not stuck in the cycle of one-off gigs

If you’re serious about growing in this industry, stop trying to do it alone. I’ve built a community of 300+ creatives who are making real moves, landing clients, and turning their passion into a full-time career.
