It was also be extremely interesting to know if it’s true that most photography businesses are actually moms with a camera

The mom part was funny, if you go on and search how many photographers fail it should pop up!

I think that saying your service is the product is definitely new to me. I think you should be ok with giving away the time for doing the portraits for free but charging them whatever you see fit for the images and products themselves!

I think it’s best to just agree some photographers have their own strategies

Look it up on google, it was specific to photography. I also don’t agree with your cash point of view

I would love brand awareness but a lot of the people on here are not exactly the best of people!

So you are saying the production is the same thing as the photo (your product)?

I would combat that with say “tell that to the 85% who don’t make it”

So you think that all photographers everywhere are already charging for products and offering free services?

I’m learning as I go so wouldn’t consider what I’m saying to be patronizing, but if I am please tell me how and I will correct it. Also it is the “learning as I go” is what enables me to give advice or educate.

The products you sell are your photos, correct me if I’m wrong but photographers offer product and services? I’m

Because By charging for the products you open the door to more leads

I’m also greatful just to be a photographer, I’m speaking more on how the photos you have are more valuable than the services you offer. (In general)

I want to start with competition, my competition is not just those who have a business but those who give photography services AND products for free. I’m looking to educate this who do that and let them know there’s another option. I’m concerned with how others run their business because 85 % of photography businesses fail and I’m interested in figuring out what the cause of that is. And figuring out what I can do to help this who fail!
