#227: 7 Big Takeaways From a $10,000+ Day of Selling Portraits
Description
One of my students recently sold $10,000 of photography in one day, and it got me thinking about what it REALLY takes to sell at that level–especially when you’re starting from scratch.
Most photographers think it’s all about their photography, but there’s actually a lot more involved in selling your art for thousands of dollars.
The thing is, if you don't have a strategy for helping clients make their decisions, or you don't understand sales psychology, your orders are probably all over the place and unpredictable.
So today, I’m going to:
-
Take you behind-the-scenes of my client’s TWO sessions (that in total generated $10,000 in one day)
-
Walk you through my thought process when a client says, “Sarah, just help me make my house look amazing!”
-
My file naming system that greatly reduces overwhelm.
-
The easiest way to give a client momentum during an ordering session.
-
My response if a client is surprised by the price of my photography.
So if you want to feel confident about your selling process, hit play and let me take you behind-the-scenes!
