The Business of the Video Business

Join John Harrington, author of the best-selling ‘Best Business Practices for Photographers’, for an insightful and solutions-oriented presentation on how to generate more revenue from the assignments, through pricing examples and discussion, as well as negotiation strategies.

Unlock the mysteries surrounding how to price your work, and learn ways to negotiate from a position of strength.  Through a series of actual negotiated assignments, we will break down the negotiation and explain how to plan for the questions you'll get, and to know the best ways to answer them. When it comes to pricing, there seems to be a world of secrecy around rates, especially when it comes to equipment and how to bill separately for that, and other items.
