2021 MEMBERS HOME PAGE

A BRIGHT SHINY NEW YEAR.

WELCOME TO THE MENTORSHIP GROUP OPPORTUNITY!

You are alumni of one of the most exclusive training groups in the world. I keep it small and personal, and I get to know every student as well as I can.

As many of you know, I also do one-on-one mentoring. And I love that.

Last year I decided to try a group mentorship idea and it has turned out great. I charged for a year, but as we got closer to the end I was not sure what the “end” would even look like.

So I decided to make it a forever group. That’s right. If you get into the group mentorship with your alumni status, you are in for life.

We have a ton of information on the site including:

  • Cold call texts
  • Brochures for explaining the value of photography (download and customize)
  • Promotional ideas
  • Business strategies
  • Portfolio reviews
  • Social media strategies
  • Bidding exercises
  • Support for answering RFP’s
  • Peer support for motivation
  • Access to all Project 52 Assignment roster and extras
  • … and a hell of a lot more

Now is your time to become a member. And remember, as an Alumni, you are in for life.

This is as close to a one-on-one mentorship as one can get. The groups are small, focused, and moving forward.

You can come into the group and out again forever… that makes it a no-brainer. Heh.

(I will keep the registration up for thirty days. If you have any questions, please let me know.)

MENTORSHIP CLASS REGISTRATION

TWO NEW CLASSES FOR YOU GUYS TO GET STARTED ON:

TOTALLY VOLUNTARY

MARKETING AND PROMO MATERIALS

This is an additional and totally free class that is considered extracurricular. If you want to look it over, start to plan your promos and marketing materials that is just fine. Do not worry about any mention of assignments, they are not a part of this program.

Lot's to consume there, so have fun and ask questions during regular class hours.

WELCOME TO A VERY EXCITING YEAR OF PHOTOGRAPHY.

This is your class home page. Everything you need will be on this page. It will grow as we get closer to our official launch, but for now, it will be here to get the basic info to you for preparation.

Please peruse the 12 Days of Project 52 below and bring any questions you may have when we have our webinar meetings.

We use ZOOM for those meetings and you must be logged into your ZOOM account for the security to let you in. I recommend a microphone and headphones, and some folks use their ear-buds for good quality sound. If you are having issues with connectivity, you may consider a hard-wired ethernet cable for the meetings. It’s a hassle, but it is the most secure connection you can get.

Below I present the Twelve Days of Project 52. Webinar information is on the side panel to right.
