Are you ready to initiate or supercharge your wedding filmmaking business? We can help you out!
By offering you access to hours of content from our seminars at IN[FOCUS] 2010, we believe that you will save hours of trial and error in running your video business. Enjoy these these event filmmakers’ presentations as they share with you how they have achieved excellence in specific areas of their business.
Here’s where you begin:
“Following Jones’ system of editing, I’ve cut my editing time by at least 10-15 hours per project and feel much better about the work I’m producing. It now has a story, substance, and a life, and I do too!” - Meghan Simone, New Hampshire
Would you like to spend less time editing and more time focusing on other aspects of your business. Would you like to regain your life outside of your office? Is your backlog growing into an out-of-control beast, and are you tired of brides calling you wanting status updates on their videos? Is your “expected delivery time” getting longer each year, do your friends wonder what happened to you, and are you losing the passion that you once had for shooting weddings?
If you are, you are not alone. Jones was once struggling with most of these issues, seeing his delivery time stretch to almost a year, and even getting canned by one bride who just didn’t want to wait until the contracted delivery time expired. Those days are gone, however, and now Jones delivers projects with a ridiculously quick turnaround time that has his clients raving about their films, and instead of editing 24/7, Jones spends time with the people and doing the things that he finds more important in life.
How did he do it? By developing a simple, teachable workflow that had him slapping his forehead it was so easy.
And now, Jones can help you slay the backlog beast once and for all with his IN[TENSE] editor training, online and on-demand!
Learn how you can unearth yourself from a small mountain of backlog by developing a simple workflow, training editors in the process, and reducing delivery time from months to weeks while your raising prices and increasing volume.
Jones will share with you not only his simple methods of organizing footage and building a story, he will also train you how to be as an editor, encouraging you to implement tips of intensity to consistently give you that “it’s due tomorrow” level of productivity without all the associated stress!
Topics that will be covered include:
- Making Parkinson’s Law work for you.
- Identifying your top time wasters, and learning how to kill them.
- Getting 8 years worth of referrals in one year’s time.
- Developing a teachable workflow for additional editors.
- Solutions to reduce backlog even if you can’t afford an editor.
- Creating an intro versus a highlight film for immediate buzz.
This information is tried and tested. Jones traveled to 8 PVA’s in 2009, sharing his methods with over 300 attendees in the process. Here is what one guest had to say:
A Special Thank You from both Jennifer and myself. Your workshop opened my eyes in ways I couldn’t have imagined. I now have a brand new productive way of editing my weddings. Most of all, its a trainable approach. Best thing I heard all night is when my wife turned to me and said, “I can do that”. She can…is… and will now help me eliminate my backlog with your editing approach. Thanks again Chris for help. – Leonard Hasemann
This testimonial comes from a one-time two-hour training session. Imagine having Jones’ training with you on-demand whenever you have internet access.
This training will also assist you in training editors for your business, freeing your life up to do all the other things you need to do….and you don’t even have to do most of the teaching – LET JONES DO IT FOR YOU!!!. By giving your editors-in-training access to Jones’ teaching, you begin to clone yourself, allowing you to build your business, make more money, and enjoy your life all the more.
Regardless of your editing style, be it cinematic or documentary, Jones’ workflow is your solution to cranking out projects at lightning-speed and in becoming a bigger superstar to your clients.
But what if you don’t edit weddings? Will this series apply?
Absolutely. Producers are implementing these editing techniques to corporate projects with great results:
“I took your editing strategies and ran with them. Last year I produced 3 videos for a local airshow that took 6 weeks of editing. This year, I was able to do the same thing in 7 days thanks in a large part to what you shared.
Every year, that airshow has literally taken months of my editing time and while it was a project I loved, I also dreaded it because it took so long. Now, I can just enjoy it and get it done quickly.” - Tom Pehrson, Loveland, Colorado
So how much time will you save? It all depends on how long it takes you to edit a project now. Our goal is get your per-wedding editing time down to about 20-30 hours. For some of you that means we’re saving you 15 hours per project, for others, much much more:
“Before implementing your editing strategies, my last wedding took me 60 hours to edit – after – 20 hours” Chad Nickle, Austin, Texas
So let’s set low expectations and assume that Jones’ Workflow Training only saves you 1 hour per project and you shoot 20 projects this year. That’s 20 hours of increased productivity. And let’s say you value your time at a mere $25/hour – you’ve saved $500 hours of productivity this year!
Isn’t this $97 training worth having for even the most minimal of results?
But what if this training saves you 20 hours per project, you do 20 projects, and you value your time at a reasonable $50/hour. In the next 12 months, you will have saved 400 hours of work time at a value of $20,000 of productivity!!!!
If Jones were to come to your studio and give you a private editing training session, it would cost you $1000/day. Yet, you can get all his training over and over again for the next year for the pre-release cost of $97 from February 8th to March 15th, 2010.
So the question isn’t, “is it worth it?” The question becomes, “why wouldn’t you do it?”
When you can blaze through projects as those that have followed Jones’ training are doing, you will create a happier customer base that will refer you strongly, saving you time and money that you would’ve spent marketing your business in order to make up for the fewer/weaker referrals that come from having a longer delivery time!
So if you’re ready to kick backlog out the door, to reduce the stress in your life, and to start living the life that you imagined when you first began your business, sign up our Workflow Training Membership February 8th – 28th for a pre-release price of $97. On March 1st, after the training begins online, the price jumps to $150.
BUT BEFORE YOU just settle on buying Jones’ training, why not also save your business more trial and error by implementing the proven methods of these other well seasoned presenters?
When it comes to getting your business where you want it to be, isn’t the best way is to find someone who is already there and to get the exact answers you need from them?
