Ok, I'm finally done with my free photo session & CD portfolio building promotion. Of course now I'm rushing to figure out profitable prices and get them up on my website.
I was thinking of offering high resolution images on CD for something like $20 per file. But I was wondering if I should include a free CD of lo-rez and watermarked images for internet use. I thought it might be good marketing to have my images go up on facebook and other social networking sites, because the watermark might bring people to my site. Then again I'm worried this will seriously jeopardize any print sales.
I have one client who would still like to book a session ($75) with me although my free promotion is over, but of course she is asking for a CD instead of prints. Someone on this forum warned me that I would quickly establish myself as a freebie photographer if I went ahead with my portfolio building plan... he was right, but I am going to stand my ground until I unestablish this
Any advice is greatly appreciated!
