How Giving Away Free Photos Made Me A Millionaire Photographer

[@ChasingDaylightStudio]

I’m in the process of turning my aerial photography only business into a full real estate (residential and commercial) photography business. I’m really loving your videos. I’m going to watch the 1 hour course you have soon and maybe reach out to you for consulting later on. Right now my hands are full in converting my website, and soon, social media feeds. I’m going to create a “New England Sky Pix” is now “Atlantic Image Creations” and offering a free first house shoot to each new client. Brilliant! Love it!

Undervalued content - can’t wait to see you explode man!! Hoping to get the ball rolling here in Houston soon! Thank you for the quality vids

[@itselijones]

Thank you Danny. Appreciate it! I'll be here if you need any help along the way!

[@edi18912]

do you think for video its better to do 50% off the first video just because how much more work is involved? editing takes many many hours

[@benoitlombard]

Great vid Eli ! Client Lifetime Value is such an important metric to track and to seek when looking for a reliable business ! :)

[@josefmadrid]

thank you for the time and effort of this video.

[@ScottGolmic]

Awesome advice! I am just getting started and your content has been very helpful. PS I kept waiting for someone to come out of the elevator behind you 😂

[@itselijones]

Glad to hear that! Any specific videos you'd like me to make? PS - it opens up to my condo so no one but my wife can come through haha.

[@ScottGolmic]

Eli, thanks for your response! Your focus on business instead of the art/gear/photography has really helped me reframe as I get started. Do you recommend offering packages at a discounted rate or just keeping it a la carte at regular price?

[@JacqueLewis]

@@itselijones You may have already made a video of it... but I wouldn't mind seeing a video about the day-to-day business tools you use to run your media company.

[@itselijones]

@@JacqueLewis you got it! Good idea!

[@itselijones]

@@ScottGolmic absolutely! Thanks for passing that on. We offer 3 packages at a slight discount on our services page! Works out to like 5-10% off when packaged.

Just created my new IG for my real estate photo business and starting the following agents process. Just wondering Eli. How long I should keep liking and interacting their post before I offer a free shoot?

[@LiveLoveFish]

Eli, I have an opportunity to work for a very renown real estate media company, but they want me to sign a Non-Compete. Is this something that you can speak into? Thanks in advance.

[@itselijones]

Depends on your situation! Are you happy with the pay they offered, will it meet your immediate needs? Working for someone will be more consistent and you will get paid sooner, but your pay will cap out more than it will if you do your own thing!

[@AdamWynne-p3h]

where is this coupon code you speak of for the course?

[@huntergulledge596]

Does the Instagram method work for Facebook? I have done the research with all the hashtags I can think of. Even the biggest city around me with a population of 200k doesn’t have but 1000 posts on Instagram with the hashtags you’ve suggested searching for. I did find, however, that in my state it seems that all of the realtors here tend to use Facebook instead. I found 4 (rather large) cities’ around me with hashtags on Facebook that have 95k+ posts. (I haven’t even explored the other cities just yet) So it’s very clear that all the realtors in my state are on Facebook and not on Instagram. Should the Instagram method still work on Facebook? I would think so, but I figured I would ask. Much thanks and appreciation for what you do!

Do you have any students in Japan? I’m interested in your courses but Japan is weird about real estate photography

[@nickgauley2642]

Eli you’re a god ❤

[@middlegarealestatephotogra8290]

Wow! I've been providing RE photography services for over 5 years. You just presented a persuasive argument to radically change my approach to recruiting agents. I'm ready to try this out. Please tell me what your most effective IG message (to REALTORS that I'm following) is?

[@upnexttv4532]
