#226: I Did the Entire Sales Process For One of My Students. You Will NEVER Believe What Happened

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if we teamed up? If YOU did the photography and I did the selling?    Every summer, we invite our Peak Performance Coaching students to one of our students' studios somewhere around the country. We've only done it twice, but it was such a hit last year that everybody was itching to do it again!    The deal is that the host photographer is responsible for getting the client and doing the session… and I do the presentation.   Amy Yang (a student and coach leader in our Peak Performance Coaching program) was our host photographer recently, and we had such a fun journey working together!    I want to tell you all about it because:    Amy has great insights about feeling the PRESSURE to get a client (and the right client, at that).  How she expertly ran a session with two parents and two children (5 and 7).  The difference between how Amy photographs and how I photograph and what that meant during the sales process.  How I got the client comfortable and let them know I'm there to help them.  We go deep into supporting a client while they’re feeling emotional.    So if you want to deep dive into the presentation process and feel inspired to make your own big sales, grab a cup of tea and hit play!  RESOURCES: WORTH EVERY PENNY JOYCAST SHOW NOTES: https://photographybusinessinstitute.com/podcast/episode-226 SHOW TRANSCRIPT:  Click Here BOUTIQUE BREAKTHROUGH – 8-WEEK WORKSHOP www.joyofmarketing.com/boutiquebreakthrough INSTAGRAM – DM me “Conversation Starters” for some genuine ways to strike up a conversation about your photography business wherever you are. https://www.instagram.com/sarah.petty  FREE COPY: NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLING BOOK FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS www.joyofmarketing.com/freebook  FREE FACEBOOK GROUP: Join and get my free mini-class: How I earned $1,500 per client working 16 hours a week by becoming a boutique photographer. https://www.facebook.com/groups/ditchthedigitals  YOUTUBE: Check out my latest how to videos:  https://www.youtube.com/c/thejoyofmarketing  LOVE THE SHOW?
