THE BIG IDEAS

• Service Over Price: Elevate your business by focusing on personalized client experiences and outstanding service, making you immune to the race-to-the-bottom pricing caused by AI automation.
• Perseverance Wins: Success requires repeatedly getting back up after setbacks; your determination to keep going is just as crucial as your photographic skill.
• Mindset Fuels Growth: Breaking through limiting beliefs about your market’s potential will help you discover new clients and higher-value opportunities, regardless of your location.
• Value Authenticity: Clients treasure real experiences and genuine connection—things AI cannot replicate—so build your brand around meaningful human interactions.
