Become a Member or Coaching Client



First, here are a few things to know:
  1. This site is NOT another “forum”.
  2. BUT…. this site is a video based “photography training site”.
  3. Many of my members report learning best by watching & listening to a video versus reading endless pages after pages on traditional photography forums. They say “It feels like an up-close seminar every month.”
    • Four New Videos Every Month….

    • Marketing Video – How to get more clients, more repeats, and more referrals in the door. Marketing concepts, plans, ideas, marketing campaigns, paradigm shifts, referral based marketing, newsletter marketing, client appreciation programs, …
    • Sales Training Video – How to get those clients to invest more easily without being a pushy “salesman”. How to allow the “Artist Within” to guide the sales process.
    • Shooting Video – Lighting, Posing, Composition, … Live shoots, lighting sets ups, break down videos, with natural light, off camera flash tutorials, studio lighting, multiple light set ups, one light portraits, & weddings, seniors, children, headshots, ….
    • Photoshop Video – A quick Tip or Trick you can use!
  4. Although this is not a forum, it does not mean you can’t ask questions. There is a place you can post your comments and ask questions on every video. I promise to respond. I am an open book!
  5. The net net result is…. more clients & higher averages through better marketing & a compelling sales process.

Who in the world is George Dean??

I own a small, yet highly profitable, portrait studio. Yes, a honest to goodness actual studio right off the interstate here in town. I specialize mainly in seniors, weddings, families, and headshots. Feel free to check out my work.

I pay two mortgages by delivering an “amazing customer experience”, feed my family from the referrals it provides, and build a strong business by always thinking about & planning for the future of each client AFTER the first one is made.

You see, I AM on the front lines with you.

I am “knee deep” in insecurities too BUT I am continually growing.

The training on this site represents what I am implementing into my business to create a healthy six figure income as a one man studio. I certainly do NOT know everything but I openly share with you what I do know.

This training site offers a refreshing, honest examination & explanation into the techniques & strategies used at a successful one man portrait studio. No hype. Just the truth. The good & bad. I am blessed to have a six figure income with less than 20% COGS and a $3K sales average with 45 minute sales sessions. I do not sell “the CD”. I create beautiful ways to display portraits for my clients. I am not an “order taker”. I am an artist whose work “must be properly displayed”. My “inner artist” runs the show BUT my  “inner business manager” keeps a very close eye on things!

FWIW, I have three little girls at home who deserves pretty dresses, shoes, dance class, gymnastics, private swim lessons, piano lessons, …. SO, it’s my job to “bring home the bacon!”. Let’s not be confused, this IS a business first and foremost. This means I want to generate professional wages ($150+ an hour) and be well respected for my craft.

Originally, I started out in a “home studio” and now have a small 1150sq foot “retail location” (there is a studio walk through video on this training site). Its small but highly profitable (the new model for the new economy). I started out with $300 averages and now I command 10x that amount. My clients keep coming back and send me lots of referrals. I’d love to tell you its “simple” but the truth is…. it’s a complex business with an elaborate tapestry of carefully orchestrated events. Everything is on purpose with a reason. And trust me, you don’t want “simple”, you want a “complex” business and I’ll explain why later. Let me share with you what I’ve learned.

This site is NOT for brand new photographers. It’s not for photographers who say “but its different in my area”, “this won’t work here”, or “negative people”. I personally coach photographers here in the US, AUS, and New Zealand. It works everywhere!

This training site is for photographers who have decided “get serious” and “make it work”. You might be frustrated with your sales average or lack of clients. Or perhaps you are spending WAY too much time in “black hole of death” known as photoshop. And/or maybe you would like additional training on lighting, posing, composition, … either way, you found a place to get that training.

2. Four New Training Videos Every Month

1. Sales Training Video: Learn to Sell More Faster & Sell More!

2. Marketing Training Video: More Clients, More Referrals, More Repeats!

3. Photoshop Training Video: Photoshop Faster

4. Shooting Better Video: Studio, OCF, Natural Light, Weddings, Seniors, Children, Headshots, …

3. Q&A on Every Video. Got a Question – Ask It!

4. Periodic Group Coaching Calls

5. Price List Critique After 6 Months of Membership ($200 Value). Many photographers sabotage their own sales because of a weak price list. Many members report a $400+ bump in their sales JUST from a BETTER price list! After watching the price list critique videos I posted in “Marketing 11″, you should have a much better grasp on effective price list design.

6. One Hour Coaching Call After 12 Months of Membership ($250 Value). Let’s talk specifically about YOUR business. I will not call and remind you of this benefit. Put it on your calendar and schedule it after you have been a member for one year. I promise you will leave the call with your head swirling! Many people become “one-on-one” coaching clients after their call (If I have a spot open that is).
