Hi,
I just happened to come across this site named Photography Business Mastery. They claim to have business ideas for aspiring photographers and are willing to share them with you against membership with them.. Looks more of a push-marketing kind of page to me - but I guess no harm done in just checking it out... Here's what they say: QUOTE "How To Quickly & Easily Start Your Own Photography Business and Take Yourself From 'Survival' to Making Up To $5,000 a Week From Your Passion For Photography … And I Am Convinced That Anyone Can Copy What We Are Doing Once They Understand!" This "turn-key" package gives you proven products, proven techniques, proven markets, a proven step-by-step plan, in fact everything you need to make a name for yourself and cash in BIG with your own Photography Business. And you can do it all part-time…if you choose. Source: Photography Business Mastery While you are there, make sure you check out their Photo Gallery - that has some impressive pictures |

Some of those images are stunning. I particularly like the unes under 'stock' - I love photographs of landscapes and nature.

It's look like some kind of stock photos agency which buy photos from you and put them on the web or some other place for the customers to buy. They will get some agency fee for that service. Well this one seems lots of marketing crap and makes my bad impression from them~~~

All I see is trouble from this, or any company claiming that anyone can make a large amount of money fast. I shall explain:
Photography is an incredibly difficult business to break into. Why? Because it's based on talent, and let's face it, you're either talented or you're not. So right away, untalented people will not succeed in the business. For the talented, they're facing an uphill battle. Purchasing equipment is expensive, advertising is expensive, and above all, you're there trying to please customers who are usually incredibly vague in what they want, yet dislike anything they see (of themselves). People are weird. Perhaps I'm sounding a bit bitter, but after dealing with fickle customers, I decided that it just wasn't worth the troubles. Instead, now I do it for pleasure, and if I sell a print because someone actually likes it, then that's fine. But for a company to claim that you can make a living in portrait photography is beyond laughable. |

Photography Business Mastery Rip Off ...
Photography Business Mastery I purchased his course a few years ago when it was much more than $147! It does contain some helpful information but it's vague and lacks substance. So, like Bruce promises ... Your Unconditional 30 Day Guarantee Get hold of our package. Give it a thorough looking over for a full 30 days. If within this period you decide that: It's not for you OR: You don't believe we've delivered everything we've promised OR; You even just don't like the way it's laid out or the paper it's printed on ! ...Then simply return the entire package in pristine condition and you will receive an immediate and cheerful refund of your money (less the cost of shipping). No questions asked! No 'my dog ate my homework stories' No spanish inquisition! I tried to return the course to no avail. Not only did I never get my money back I was given such a hard time being accused of not even trying, etc. Bruce Stafford is a liar and should be arrested. One thing he does well is market ... If you want to learn how to rip people off and get away with it ... Then mimic his web page and offer useless information. You'll be a millionaire in no time! Remember though, you have to offer an iron clad return, and then don't give back a dime! DO NOT BUY THIS COURSE -reply by PhotoKing |
