After several years of producing, shooting, and editing video-visual content for Grammy-Award winning artist, small businesses, larger corporations, and promotional companies, (while also producing quality promotional and video-marketing content for my own business),it finally dawned on me how many other cinematographers, photographers, businesses, and entrepreneurs neglect this part of their business. 

If Fortune 500 companies continue to use video-marketing within their businesses, why don't you? 
 
I helped build the visual presence of a well-known promotional company that has hosted over 435 events, with an attendance rate of over 400,000 people and counting. This company has grown an audience of over 72,000 followers on social media, has been featured on OWN Television Network, and has been the host of worldwide tours.
 
Video visual-presence within your brand increases search engine optimization and it also helps you to stand out; especially if others within your industry or niche aren't using video within their brand presence. Video visual-presence within your business is very important to your brand.  I'm here to introduce you to practical ways to use video-marketing within your business and more. You'll learn why video-marketing is important, the best places to use video, valuable and practical tips for shooting and creating promotional videos (for your service-based business or products), why video visual presence is important for your business growth, and more.

Hearing high sales averages of other photographers when you are barely making it is never fun. How do you go from making zero or minimal profit to a salary that can sustain your family? Are you working for pennies and don't even realize it? Are you trying to leave a corporate job but just cannot find the means to do so that will make it worth it to be fully self employed?

I have been there, I know it all too well, you are not alone. Five years ago I took the leap and left a very good salary with a major corporate bank to be a full time, self employed photographer. I took the chance that I could make it on my own and had to figure out a way to make at least the same income as I was making with the bank. I quickly surpassed that amount and then it doubled, and then it tripled! I went from photographing everything under the sun as I tried to make it work to fine tuning my business model in a way that allows me to specialize in senior portraits all year 'round.  I will help give you the tools you need to bring your sales to a point of profit, and share how I was able to do this in a gradual way and get to the point in my business that I have been able to maintain a high sales average for the last 3 years. If it's possible for me, it's possible for you!

Would you be prepared if you suddenly were faced with illness, a natural disaster or some other tragic event that either affected you or your business and what plans and processes do you have in place to press through and get back to work? 

In March of 2017, our entire lives were sent into tailspin when I was on the way to teach at Reset Conference 2017 and was was diagnosed with heart failure.  That diagnoses had me in the hospital for 16 days, $300,000.00 in medical debt, daily appointments with a full medical team, and took both Ike and I out of work for 4 months (photography being our sole source of income).  This put us on the road to having to face what we were going to do as our lives were falling apart.  

How do you plan for, cope through and bounce back from life's hardest moments and move forward in business?  Ike and I hope to give you some things to think about and consider to fortify your business for life's unexpected challenges and to help you create a plan that will allow you to get back to work in spite of what you might face.
