Overview of the 'How to Sell' Book
The 'How to Sell' book is an overview of the markets for your photography and your photographic skills. Each market is very different and your approach to each must reflect this. This book should equip you with insight so that you can approach the markets correctly and start to access them.
The 'Courses' training manual then supports this aim by providing you with detailed guidance on how to deliver at professional standards, which includes managing yourself, your photography and your business in such a way that clients keep coming back for more.
