I cannot wait to see you hit 100k subs. You’re handing out straight SAUCE bro! And for FREE! Not all heroes wear capes, awesome work and channel brotha💯
Awesome Video dude. Just for anyone reading the comments - I went the middle of the road option camera wise (ZV-E10 sigma 10-18) and a DJI RSC 2 for gimbal. That is more than good enough for listing photos and videos once you spend a couple months sucking and learn how to use the gear properly. However - I just picked up a 15 pro max and I'm going to be using that for my vids from now on. There IS a caveat with this however - which is just that in my opinion clients like to see the nice gimbal rig and kind of get goggly eyes over it. Honestly not that big though. A guy that knows how to talk to clients with an IPhone will do better than a guy thats shy with a FX3 and huge gimbal. (Also if you're going the crop sensor route it's probably worth the extra 500 to just go ahead and pick up an a6700) Other than that - stick out the first 6 months - they suck. You suck at the technical skills, fulfillment, client relations etc. but you will get better. The marketing / client acquisition advice Jordan gives is also more than enough. Focus on building relationships and not being transactional and the work you put in will compound. It will look like nothing's happening for a good 6 months and then something happens and it starts to materialize. End of story - all of Jordan's advice worked for me. Just focus on the key components - and approach it from the perspective of a business owner - and stick out how rough it is in the beginning - you will be just fine. Once you get over the fear of failure you're golden.
Thank you for sharing your experience at the end of the video. I have been watching your videos for a while now and have found them incredibly helpful. I have had the same experience with realtors saying they will use me and then hearing nothing back. It has been incredibly disheartening. I live in Australia so our seasons are opposite to yours. It was helpful to hear that you had a similar experience. I took it as a sign that I need to push my marketing harder, so I am reworking my package deals and hope to launch my Insta marketing in the next few weeks! Please keep the content coming, I love it and it is beyond valuable to see someone who has done it show me the ropes.
That’s great to hear! Thank you for the words of encouragement. I’ll be honest I’ve been in a bit of a rut generally so hearing that people enjoy the content helps boost the motivation a lot!
It’s a good idea. It’s only a couple hundred bucks. Not super necessary, but if you open up an LLC, then you’ll be able to get an EIN, a business bank account, even a credit card. You’ll have to set one up sometime anyways, so might as well do it now.
I just might! It’d be boring and short, though. When I cold call, I’m not making any pitch or sale. I literally say “sorry, this is a cold call and I hate doing it, I’m Jordan, a real estate photographer, but I’m not selling you anything today. Just want to let you know I exist. Would you be opposed to me keeping in touch now and then to see if there’s ever a good time to collaborate?” That’s really it haha

Is the Nikon z6II good for pics and videos?
I’ve never used it but I’ve heard good things from people I know who use it!
Should you start an LLC before getting started?
It’s a good idea. It’s only a couple hundred bucks. Not super necessary, but if you open up an LLC, then you’ll be able to get an EIN, a business bank account, even a credit card. You’ll have to set one up sometime anyways, so might as well do it now.

Do a cold call video id love to watch how you work your magic.
