APA Chicago—Virtual Training Make Them Want More

Overview

The lifeblood of your photography business is presenting your portfolio to new prospects. Let's face it—the upfront time it takes to secure a new business meeting is substantial. The process starts with researching qualified prospects, acquiring the name of the decision-maker, cold-calling and emailing for an appointment, hearing crickets, cold-calling and emailing again. The process is difficult and can be demoralizing—and then you land a meeting, which makes it all worthwhile. If you are like most photographers, after investing substantial human capital in getting the meeting, you arrive and "show" your work. There's a better way.

We've teamed up with renowned Dale Carnegie trainer Bill Soddy to explore and practice techniques that will help you sell yourself, when minutes count, in a concise and engaging way that makes them want more. You will also learn:
