Stop Deciding For Them
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
347 - There's one thought quietly killing your bookings, and it sounds harmless. "I don't want to bother them." This week Heather Lahtinen and I unpack why that single thought stops photographers from making offers, and what to think instead.
What to Listen For
- Why every math problem is really a thought problem
- The three places every booking problem lives
- Get energy versus service energy explained
- Why deciding for clients is actually rude
- The reason your art feels personal to sell
- Why photographers undervalue their own skill set
- Who your best clients actually turn out to be
- What if your prices are too cheap
- The $250 offer that should be $1,200
- How to use feelings as a thought barometer
If sharing your pricing makes your chest tight, that's a thought, not a fact. Give this episode a listen and get curious about what's actually going on under the surface.
