Episode 512: The All-Inclusive Boudoir Experience – Sarah Andrew
Do your clients tend to stick to the “basic” package you offer, limiting your revenue? Have you considered increasing what you include in your packages, and nixing the idea of add-ons?
Check out episode 512 of The Bokeh Podcast, as Sarah Andrew of Sarah Michal Boudoir shares how she provides her clients with an all-inclusive package, which has raised her revenue significantly! Gone are the days of upselling and managing options – everything is included for one session fee, and pre-sales of prints and albums make the process even more streamlined!
