Photographing for “The Dogs and Their Owners”

IMPORTANT:  Attendance is LIMITED. Registration is required to be included in the event head count.

Do you love animals, dogs, cats, rabbits, or others? Do your clients say, “OMG, That is too expensive!” or prospective clients say, “Oh no, I was not expecting to pay $150, how much are your digital files? Or “I have to talk it over with…” 

Would you like to have clients that want to purchase $1000, $3000, or $5000 and more, or even book multiple sessions at that level in just a single year? Do you want to FIND good clients?

Come spend a day with our instructor, Duane Murphy from Great American Portraits™, to learn how he BUILDS amazing clients. From Facebook to in-person art-walks and events, Duane simply can’t wait in hopes of finding good clients.

In this 6 hour PPA Credited Class, you will…

1. Learn how Duane interacts with his clients to not only educate them but to have them invested emotionally and monetarily before their photographs have ever even been created.  

2. Learn how he simplifies the process for the client so it is easy for them to purchase on the same day of their session and know exactly what he is photographing for…. Hint, it’s not 200 photos in hopes of selling 4 or 5 good ones.

3. He will share the why’s of why his clients want to purchase artwork instead of trying to sell them collections, pictures, photos, or artwork. Duane’s average client currently spends over $3000 per order.

Bring your cameras and notepads! The first half will be lecture with photographing after lunch.
