In this episode, I discuss the concept of knowing your worth and how to set your prices as a photographer or videographer. I break it down into five segments: knowing your worth, pricing models, cost considerations, building client relationships, and scaling your business. I emphasize the importance of understanding your value, researching the market, and considering factors like the complexity of the project, client expectations, and your efficiency. I also highlight the need to communicate your pricing structure transparently, educate clients about the value you provide, and periodically reassess and adjust your prices to reflect market changes and the growth of your business.
