“FINDING CLIENTS IN A CHAOTIC MARKET”

Webinar replays below.

This is one of my flagship classes. I have sold it for $750 dollars in the past. Iam now putting this up for free for photographers who need to get out of the funk of inconsistent assignment work and low fees. Get to work with this system and see the difference. But understand that this is work, it is hard work, and it requires diligent and deliberate effort.

If you are looking for a simple, easy, and ‘fool-proof’ way to “make money with your camera”, this is NOT THE COURSE FOR YOU.

One of the hardest pieces of the professional creative puzzle is finding, and then keeping, clients. I’m not talking about one-off gigs, I mean clients in the sense of continuous work. I talk to photographers all over the world and the problem is always the same; “I don’t know how to find clients that will hire me.” We’ll fix that for you. They are out there, and you’ll know how to find them and keep them coming back.

Finally, a System That Works for Photographers in Any Location

That’ right. Whether you are in a rural area, small town, or large city, this system will work for you. And work well.

I want you to know that it is not a secret system, a propriety thing that I invented or was handed by the photo gods of decades past, it is a system that has worked for thousands of small businesses, photographers, and other artists the world over.

What I have done is put it together into a roadmap that can be customized for anyone in any location. Solid, repeatable, scalable, and guaranteed. Yes, I guarantee it works.

And I use this system. I used it to build my photography business back in the day, I used it to build a multi-million dollar ad agency, and I am using it to develop a new creative business I am hoping to share with folks in early 2024.

Hundreds of photographers who went through my Project 52 Pro System classes have used it to grow their businesses and get larger and larger clients.

How Does the Sprint Work?

Recorded presentations and discussions.. Workbooks and presentations accompany this to download and work on offline for the next class.

Modules are designed to get you from not knowing where your potential customers are to know exactly where they are, who they are, and how to contact them.

This doesn’t guarantee you a gig, so don’t think it does.

Many other factors enter into getting work; portfolio, personality, perseverance, and sometimes a bit of whimsy.

And sometimes the reason you do not get a gig is something out of your control; they have someone on staff, or they do not have a gig available at the moment you talk to them.

Those things that are not in your control are also not in the control of anyone else out there.

So we focus on what IS in your control, and this system makes that easier to do.

Don’t focus on the assumed outcome, focus on the real work, and outcomes will be there.

The live classes are recorded and you will have them to come back to again and again.

This is an intensive class, but it is one that will see a real return for you and your business if you work the system.

Let’s get started on building your business, and landing more gigs. Join us!

The System Simply Works. It’s Proven and Tested.

I used this same system to grow my photography business back in the day. I then used it to grow my small design and photography business into a multi-million dollar ad agency. I used it again to build my boutique agency and I am using it now for my new business.

Many photographers who took the Project 52 Pro System have used it as well, and it works whenever it is tried.

A proven, and consistent system to help you identify clients, engage them, and get the assignments you need to grow your business.

No “secrets’, no “easy button” either. This takes work and determination, but with a roadmap in front of you, it becomes much more manageable.

You can do this.

“Don’s teachings have made it possible for me to make a good living as a full time commercial photographer. Using a basic approach of doing the work, Don teaches the steps. Doing the work is up to you!” Catherine Vibert

Catherine Vibert

"Don is truly more than just a teacher, he is a phenomenal educator, a mentor and when needed, that cool voice in the back of your head that asks you if that is really the best you can do which kicks you to take the hundredth shot in order to get it right or make the extra effort to contact the thousandth potential client.”

Alex Baker

“Don is a natural-born mentor — it’s in his DNA. His style is persistently positive, honest & fair, and the value of critique sessions with him cannot be overstated. Don teaches real-world methods of successful commercial photography, from image-making to finding and keeping clients. If you want to get better at everything you need to know to be a successful commercial photographer, look no further: you’ve found the right teacher.”

Bret Doss

“Taking the courses I have with Don over the past 5 years has taken so much of the mystery out of what I see in other online courses and videos. Don gives you the opportunity to learn what it’s like to have real-world assignments thrown at you and how to tackle it when it happens. I fully stand behind any and all courses he crafts together.”

Tucker Joenz

"His agency background and shooting experience provide a unique set of skills to tap into, he's not going to tell you pie in sky stories like you'll be shooting for Dior next week, his approach is realistic, attainable, and refreshing. If you think because you can push the button that you're ready for commercial clients, your about to get an eye-opener. One last thing he's a really nice guy."

My Personal Guarantee

This stuff works. Do it with commitment. Do it with positivity. Do it with a systematic approach that allows you to build on each of the modules. Make three contacts per day, minimum. Build your list with deliberation. Work on your portfolio. Get help when you need it.

This is YOUR opportunity to use this roadmap that has worked for me and many of my students. USE IT… Stop listening to negative people and get yourself into a strong position with solid cash flow.

 

Every photographer has their own special approach to the work that they do. This system is not designed to inhibit or manipulate that structure in any way. The system will work for graphic designers as well as photographers. I want nothing more than to see everyone I work with become successful.
