The Work Between: The Business of Photography

IPS Isn’t a Pricing Model (And Other Things You’ve Been Told Wrong)


Listen Later

Let’s clear this up once and for all: IPS is not a pricing structure.


In this episode, we’re breaking down what In-Person Sales actually is—and what it’s not. Because photographers keep mixing up “IPS vs all-inclusive” like they’re opposites. Spoiler: they’re not even in the same category.


Here’s what we’re covering:
 

  • The difference between how you sell vs what you sell
  • Why you can offer albums and digital files when doing IPS
  • The myths about “no one wants IPS” or “clients only want digital”
  • What matters most: experience, not delivery method

We also talk about our own evolution—from full IPS to online galleries, and how we still drive intentional sales that feel good to everyone.


Whether you’re doing same-day ordering appointments or letting clients decide from the comfort of their couch, this episode will help you sell better—without all the IPS confusion.

If this episode made you think “why has no one said this before?” you're not alone. Send it to your photography bestie. Post it to your stories. Leave a review. Not because we asked—but because you wish someone had sent it to you sooner.
