Enrollment Begins Again on December 9, 2016
Enrollment Information for the Class
This isn’t your ordinary sign up, take the class and never hear from the instructor. No way. I can’t teach that way. We have weekly meetings for as long as the class is going. Once you are in, you are in. No more fees or added purchase items.
Why?
I need to be involved. I MUST be involved because that is the best way for me to interact with the lessons, the students, and the hard work of making sure you find clients, get gigs and get paid.
So this, of course, changes up how I am teaching this class, and it also gives us a more actionable plan for getting this info into your hands, hearts, and brains.
Look – this system works. It just does.
If you live in a big city like Dallas, it will work.
If you live in a small town like Akron, it will work.
If you live in a very small town like Springdale, it will work.
Because it is a system that scales.
And we are not reinventing the wheel here. This is a time-tested, photographer tested method that I have done myself. Many times. I have taught it to photographers on my Project 52 group, and I have refined all of that into this 8 week, practical course that will teach you how to do it.
You will, of course, refine it, trim it, change it to fit your own ways of working, but that is to be expected. You will learn the system, build the momentum and then customize it to make it yours.
I expect no less.
I hope you also noticed that I am not sending you email after email trying to get you to sign up. You either will or you won’t, and that is fine with me. If everyone signed up, I would have to refund a ton of people and plan a second course down the road a bit. I prefer no more than 20 of you signing up. We have a lot to cover, and we need to have everyone on board for the complete experience.

This introduction Webinar was on April, 7, 2016.
Special Guests are James Eisele and Stephen Collins
SO HERE’S THE DEAL:
You sign up for the class, go through the material either one class per week, or in a long couple of days. Then you attend the workshop meetings which involve your peers, and other workshop attendees. Occasionally we will have a guest on the show, someone for you to ask questions of, and find out other perspectives on the business of getting clients.
“OFFICE HOURS” will be a weekly meeting with me for anyone who may have additional questions, or need some special guidance. Times will vary but mostly be on the weekend.
12 MODULES
These modules have pre-recorded information, and all modules have two previous group class interactions recorded for you. There is ample to be learned from those classes, and then come to our weekly meetings armed with questions that can move YOUR business forward.
In addition, there os a private, secret Facebook group to keep us all informed and on track. You MUST be a member of the FB community to take full advantage of access to me, to those who have been involved before and the great resource peers can be. This is the best way to stay informed and on point.
The Facebook Community is something you belong to for life. No recurring payment or additional fees. The same with access to the materials. You will always have access to the classes as long as I am around. And the materials grow with each meeting we have – all are recorded and added to the archive.
You have seen in the free sessions just how powerful this class can be, and I hope you have taken advantage of the information given there to boost your business.
Now we take it so much further with a full deep-dive into the commercial photography world, how clients think, how to influence them, how to bid, price, and get paid for your work.
And yes, I charge money for this class.
You all know I give away a lot of information on my various websites from Lighting Essentials, to Youtube, to my Facebook page, to writing for lots of online magazines. I will continue to do that. I believe in that.
But I also know that people value what they pay for. I am guaranteeing you will do this work because you are paying for it. Your success requires a commitment and an investment. I need to be paid for the work I do as well. We all agree on that, and now we move forward.
I am quite sure you will get more than enough value out of this class to go out and FIND commercial photography clients. In fact, you will be developing a targeted and powerful list from the fourth class on.
We cover a lot of ground in this class from understanding what makes a commercial portfolio, to finding clients right in your town that you never even knew about, to bidding a job that makes the client want to say “yes”.
My hope is that you will make the fee back on this class with your first gig. No matter where you live. I am confident that this is totally possible and absolutely doable.
