Today I’m sharing the replay of an interview I did with Vicki Knights and Eddie Judd over on their fantastic podcast Shoot, Edit, Chat, Repeat where we talked about how to respond to inquiries, why it's so important to educate your clients before they book (and the best way to do that), how to get a client to make a spending decision, and how collections are an important part of the sales process.

When Kristyn Miller and I scheduled time to record this episode of Mini Mentoring, we had one plan for what we were going to talk about. Then, once we set the timer and actually talked it through, it turned out we had a whole different conversation on our hands.

Kahran and Regis Bethencourt are on fire. Their new book Glory was released last month and instantly hit the New York Times Bestseller list, and yet in the midst of promoting that, managing a full roster of private and commercial clients, working on their second book, and chasing their new puppy Pixel around, they made time to chat with me on This Can’t Be That Hard. You absolutely can’t miss this conversation!

Most photographers set out to run a relatively simple business, but it’s surprisingly easy to quickly make things more complicated than they need to be.

In this episode, I’m going to give you a quick way to assess whether you’re overcomplicating your business, and if you are, an easy strategy for identifying where things need to be streamlined and simplified.

In this slightly unusual episode of Mini Mentoring, I’m chatting with Dreama Spence, a photographer who planned and executed an UnSchooled portrait session concept this fall. She’s giving us all the details - from her offer and marketing strategy to how things went and what she’ll do differently next time. She’s even included a link to her sales page for you to take a peek at!
