We recently encouraged photographers to take a close look at dance schools as a great source of revenue. Our sales average coupled with a good buy rate make our dance school sales a great example of a successful shoot. Our product mix, pricing and cost structure were also key to the success of this example.
Our product mix was comprised of designer prints, 3 packages, a la carte specialty items, a la carte standard prints and some “upsells.” The “upsell” is only available after another purchase is made.

Below is a breakdown of the products sold in our dance studio shoot example.
