HEY,

You Brand Photographer!

If you are brand new to brand photography, making a transition from wedding and lifestyle photography into brand photography, or even if you are already working with brands and looking to increase your profitability and revenue, then you already know that understanding pricing and licensing in the commercial brand photography space is crucial to achieving that goal!

SO WE'LL GET RIGHT TO THE MAIN POINT...

We don't need to spend time twisting your arm trying to convince you that brand photography plays by a completely different pricing framework than wedding and lifestyle photography.

After all, you already know that there is huge opportunity in the brand photography industry and you've seen how tight lipped this side of the industry is about pricing models...let alone the topic of licensing!

You're probably also familiar with the fact that this industry is rapidly growing while more and more people are jumping in on the brand photography wagon, but having no idea how pricing in this space works and missing out on major revenue opportunities!

here's what you might not know

Even if you have a pricing model that works to some degree, understanding brand photography pricing and Licensing allows you to:

Understanding photo licensing will allow you to maximize revenue on your images! Stretch the value of your images through licensing fees, license renewals, and selling multiple licenses of the same image!

STOP LEAVING MONEY ON THE TABLE

Knowing that your pricing model is consistent, works within industry standards, and doesn't require you to reinvent the wheel for each and every new inquiry that lands in your inbox!

STOP STARTING OVER WITH EACH INQUIRY

Image licensing allows you to keep business booming beyond the photoshoot by requiring clients to either refresh their images with a new photoshoot or renew their license with you - in either case, still keeping cash flowing to your business!

NOT WORK YOURSELF OUT OF A JOB

No longer spend every waking moment trading your time for money. Yes, photography is a service that involves your time investment in exchange for revenue, but having an effective pricing model in place allows you to work less and make more!

SCALE TO NEW LEVELS

Even if you have experience as a photographer - marketing, pricing, and licensing in the brand photography space couldn't be any more different.

CHECK IT OUT

Maybe you've already started sending proposals for lifestyle brands, small business photoshoots, or even larger commercial brand photography projects.

Perhaps clients have already filled out your inquiry form, but you've been intimidated by terms and requests you've never dealt with before. Or worse, you've responded and sent a proposal, but didn't land the job and you know in your gut it's because you didn't understand how to quote the job.

MAKE MORE MONEY?

heck yes!

MAKE MORE MONEY?

Maybe you've already started sending proposals for lifestyle brands, small business photoshoots, or even larger commercial brand photography projects.

Perhaps clients have already filled out your inquiry form, but you've been intimidated by terms and requests you've never dealt with before. Or worse, you've responded and sent a proposal, but didn't land the job and you know in your gut it's because you didn't understand how to quote the job.

HERE'S WHAT PREVENTS MOST BRAND PHOTOGRAPHERS FROM GETTING JOBS:

Without a crystal clear understanding of how the brand photography industry works, photographers are left with their old pricing models from other photography work and crossing their fingers in hopes that it will work.

They get crushed between knowing that they are missing critical pricing and licensing information and not knowing how or where to gain the understanding that they need.

HERE'S WHY THAT BECOMES SUCH A HUGE ISSUE:

You begin to feel like you are still trading time for money and that there is no end in sight. A feeling that becomes such a burden that you simply can't stand under the weight of not knowing what you don't know. 

It's enough to make you want to quit, run back to a safe space, and continue with business as usual...if you continue with business at all. But this is exactly the moment you can't fold.

The brand photography space is a rapidly growing industry with more and more opportunity every day, and knowing there is something more to learn in the pricing and licensing space is the first step to capitalizing on the opportunity!

It's time to do what you've always done, but few people take the time to do... learn something new and implement it in order to reach new levels of success!

01

How to price for brands

Collections simply aren't effective and fail to resonate with brand clients. Brands are unique and so are the pricing options they need.

You have to have a scaleable pricing model that is flexible for each unique brand that wants to work with you. It's time to understand brand pricing verticals and a system to create a pricing model that works for any brand client, big or small!

Pricing for brand photography is nothing like pricing for wedding and lifestyle clients. 

The 3 Things You Need to Understand right now to Succeed

02

Image licensing is critical

Having no licensing strategy means you are missing out on revenue, being taken advantage of, and working yourself out of a job.

Your business, and your sanity, deserve a clear image licensing strategy that serves you and your clients. You and your biz also deserve a no-nonsense, down-to-earth explanation of image licensing and how to apply it to your workflow!

It simply isn't as scary as people feel it is, and Image Licensing is a critical piece to scaling your business and profits!

03

How to market your business

You've got to have a clear and consistent marketing strategy for your business that works for you to attract those dream clients to your business!

You don't have to present yourself as some stuffy artistic novelty, but remember that there are real people behind brands that are looking for not only great photos, but an incredible experience!

Time for a proven marketing strategy that works for you to attract scroll-stopping clients to your brand!

Want to land dream brands in your portfolio? Desperate to break into new markets and opportunities?

DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW

Even though the brand photography space is growing at an incredible rate and digital marketing is set to surpass over $117 BILLION in revenue, not everyone will get an equal share of the pot. A few people, with insider information, will be able to capitalize on the drastic spike in photography for marketing, while others will work relentlessly without reaping the same benefits.

And the main reason for this, as you've likely surmised by now, is that while the barriers for entry are pretty LOW...
...The barriers to growth and success because of lack of pricing + licensing knowledge are HUGE!

But as long as you can understand the nuances of working with brands and pricing photoshoots to meet their unique needs and licensing requirements, you can be one of the few who take a huge part in this industry. One that allows you to work with household brand names, generate life changing revenue through your business, and create multiple revenue streams in your business. 

The key ingredients to being successful in this are understanding pricing + licensing for brand clients of all shapes and sizes.
With your permission, we'd love to show you exactly how to understand this information...

real LIFE STORY

E+J COMMUNITY

MEGAN STOPPED LEAVING MONEY ON THE TABLE

Before the P+L course, I had packages set up. Every time I had an inquiry, none of my packages seemed to fit. Now I use Jon and Erica's pricing strategy every time. With just a few steps, I can now send proposals and am confident in what I am quoting. I was also leaving a lot of money on the table because I did not have a clear understanding of licensing. I highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to step up their game. Erica and Jon make everything so easy to understand all while having fun teaching it.
