[GET] Start A Photo Business - Photography secrets for the Wedding, Portrait Photography Business

What would life be like for you if YOU could do anything you would like? What if you had more time to spend with your family, and be available when they needed you most? What if you could make enough money to support you and your family, and have the extras in life you’ve been dreaming of (like that new car, and the two week vacation)? What if you could work on a schedule that is convenient for you? What if this dream could become your reality in just a few short months?


The truth is over 75 percent of people contemplate starting their own business at some point in their life. And of those 75 percent, one in three will actually take the steps necessary to start their own business.


You see, it takes a special personality to decide to go into business for him or herself. You have to realize that it takes more than a love of what you do. It also takes commitment because a business doesn’t grow by itself. It takes work.


The cold hard facts are most business owners will go out of business in a short period of time. Over 66 percent of business startups fold after only four years.


But there is a way to give you an edge over other business owners. It’s a "secret" that every successful business owner has followed over the course of his or her own entrepreneurial life. And I’m going to share that secret with you … in just a minute.


First, let me introduce myself. My name is Lori Osterberg, and I’ve been a successful entrepreneur for almost 20 years now. But I didn’t start out that way. In fact, I would say I was taught to be anything but an entrepreneur.


I came from a traditional family: two kids, dad worked 9 to 5, mom stayed home. I was pushed to go to college and get a good job; one that would take care of me throughout my life.


After watching my dad struggle to keep his job the last few years before retirement, I discovered having a "job" wasn’t the risk-free thing to do. So together with my husband, Andrew, we started our first photography studio.


And what an amazing business it turned out to be. We did astonishing things with that business. We would double – even triple our sales year after year. We were recognized with some of the finest awards in local, national and international competitions. We discovered the power of the Internet in the 90′s, and became one of the premier photography studios online (which means we flew anywhere our clients wanted us to be).


As we became more recognized, we started having other photographers ask us, "How’d you do that"?


We learned something early on that helped us grow our business tremendously. Instead of struggling along the path, trying to learn everything by doing it, we discovered that you could get there a lot quicker by following in someone else’s footsteps.


And most of those leaders are more than willing to share their expertise. They not only love to share, but they almost consider it a necessity. Once you learn valuable information, why not share it with others just starting out to help them along too.


So once we had achieved our own personal goals, and were living the life others only dreamed of, we decided we had to share our knowledge with others.


If something has always held you back from creating a better life for yourself, now is your time!


If you’re ready to make the next 12 months of your life the best 12 months ever, now is your time!


I’ve created a dynamic product exclusively for the photographer that’s ready to turn their passion into a new career.


The Building A Successful Photography Business Kit is a step-by-step guide that provides you practical advice on starting and operating your own successful photography business.


When I first started teaching other photographers how to become successful, I did it in a much different way. I worked with people one-on-one, and steadily helped them change their businesses. I spoke to small groups, and provided a tiny fraction of the information I had available.


Then one day I began to think of a way to help as many people as possible begin living their dream life. And my Building A Successful Photography Business Kit was born.


It takes more than photography to build a successful business. Learn what will get you on track and keep you there.


Generating leads doesn’t have to be difficult. I’ll give you key strategies for finding top quality potential customers.


Pricing your products and services should help you bring in a healthy profit. Rather than guessing at how to price, learn how to price with authority. From there, learn what it takes to present your offer to prospects, and turn them into happy clients that buy again and again.


Your website is more than a brochure. It can be your window to the world. Discover how to grow your business beyond your local market with just a few simple tools.


I know you’ve always enjoyed photographing. You’ve been carrying your camera around to events and family functions for years. People have come to expect your services – for free – because you always show up with a camera. Isn’t it time you turn that hobby into a lucrative career? One that will allow you to do what you love – and get paid for it too?


I also know it’s sometimes difficult having enough time in the day to get everything accomplished. If you have a full time job, a family, and other personal commitments, squeezing in several hours a week to start a business can sometimes cause you to move at a slower pace then you would like. Yet you have to have income coming in – what can you do?


Learn how to take your extra photographs – the one’s you take…

Malcolm This stuff is A-W-E-S-O-M-E! I’ve spent literally hundreds of dollars on posing books and guides in the past 5 years (most with a notable Photographic publisher via a very well known online book store), and this is by FAR the best guide to posing I’ve ever seen!


Your simple, easy to understand style and handy "memory joggers" are priceless. Honestly, I think you’re charging too little. I strongly suggest you put the price up to over $100, especially since this will help lock out my competition!  icon smile "


Starting where Volume 1 left off, Volume 2 gets into the minute details of understanding how the body talks through your photographs.


Where great posed shots used to be an accident and good…
