If I move the tools, I will update this page.

Are You Getting Paid What You Are Worth?
The tool to find ou where you are on your journey and if you are leaving piles of money on the table.

The Rate Card
Find out what others are getting for the work you are doing. This will help you establish professional rates and understand the value of your work. Consider the information when you are pricing your work.

The Pitch: Simple Channel Finder (4-Sequenced Emails)
If you don’t know who to shoot for, this tool may help show you four areas that you fit into. These basic channels are the first part of the discovery.

The Map: 5 Channels, 30 Subchannels
This tool interviews you about your work and your experience, and then creates Five Main Channels that should receive your attention, with a further breakdown to Thirty Subchannels to give even more clarity. This is the tool I wish I had when I started.

The Hold: Coaching for the Challenge
This tool helps you deal with clients who want to add additional work, scope creep on the job, and pushback on your bids. It’s like having a coach on your keyboard ready to jump in and help you deal with messy clients.

The Aesthetic Tools

The Cold Eye
How’s your portfolio?
Upload five of your best, see what kind of review this tool gives you. It may not be what you expected, or it may validate your already understood position. It isn’t kind or cruel, it just gives you something to think about.

The Frame.
Perhaps you don’t want a full portfolio review, just a look at a single image.
The tool interviews you on the why, the goal, and the result and gives you it’s rating on how you did.
Not the French judge, or a cheerleader, but a jaundiced eye on the results.

Creative Workshop

The Assignment Generator
Need something to dig into? This tool will generate a professional brief, then evaluate your work after you shoot it.

The Project Tool
I think personal projects are one of the best marketing tools we can use. But coming up with one can occasionally be a challenge. This tool will help you identify a couple of projects that may fit your time allotment and budget.
