Do you often find yourself in a position where you’re not sure what to say to a potential client?
“Your charges are too high”
“We’ve people ready to do the job at a lesser price”
“We want a re-shoot with a new set of ideas”
“Can you do a test shoot for us?”
“Our budget is a little tight but we will let you keep the products”
I know I would’ve had better experiences if someone told me how to handle the business side of Photography. Client conversations get you bookings and hence being thorough with what to say & when is important.
It’s possible that at times you’ve differences with your potential client. But there’s a way you can handle it without messing the situation up. There are some industry norms that are followed everywhere alike. There are things and actions that make you appear confident as an artist who values themselves and their work.
Trust me, I wish I had a mentor to guide me when I started out. An experienced Photographer who could’ve told me that it’s not okay to give away all of the RAW pictures from the shoot at no extra cost, that the copyright to the images shot by a Photographer always lie with the Photographer unless bought separately for a fixed amount of time.
In this guide, I’ve summarized everything you’ll need to nail client conversations. It is what I’ve experienced and learned over the past 4 years working as a Freelance Photographer. The guide consists of thing your client can say and what you should respond back with. Swipe too see which question’s answers are covered in the guide.
The guide is a well-thought collection of responses that one only learns through years of experience in the field. I’m sharing with you, all the responses that I personally use, and the ones that have always worked for me. Because freelancing isn’t just about getting a lot of clients, but about getting clients with whom you’re always on the same page.
