How a Photographer Landed $50k+ Projects in One Year

How she did itšŸ‘‡ Last week I asked my client Cyntia to share some of her story in our weekly creator group call since it was officially a year since we started working together. When I first met Cyntia I knew she was a winner. Maybe she didn’t have the clients or budgets yet, but she had the 1 thing you can’t teach… She was gonna find a way to win no matter what! She knew her photography was good enough to land big projects, she just needed a plan to pitch, price, and land them… quick! Within a few months of working together she landed a $19k brand project… Then a $50k cookbook shoot… And lots of ā€œlittleā€ (mid 4 figure šŸ˜‚) shoots in between. So how the heck was she able to do this?!? Simple. āœ… She became a growth creator Here’s the biggest game changers… 1ļøāƒ£ Changed her pitch Instead of pitching just photos, she pitched full scale content marketing solutions that were way more than just photography. (Hint: they solved a major problem and saved the brand a lot of time and headache) 2ļøāƒ£ Developed a unique style Competition is irrelevant if you can’t be compared. She works with a stylist to help give her photography a very elevated style that is unique to her. Now she gets inbound projects for people wanting THAT! Some even say she’s ā€œoverqualifiedā€ it’s so good! 3ļøāƒ£ Pricing Instead of pricing generic per content rates, she now factors in the potential value of the content for a brand and charges licenses in addition to the base creative fee. And because she has built up a ton of high quality examples, she has the confidence to pitch $10k+ projects knowing full well it’s worth that to the brand šŸ˜Ž šŸ‘‰ If you’re ready to stop being the cheap photographer and want me to help you price your content like Cyntia… šŸ“Œ Comment ā€œREADYā€ and I’ll send you the application to work with me directly. Be blessed and stay stoked šŸ˜ŽšŸ¤™
