Looking for a workshop that sells you an image or a lifestyle? Then don’t read any further. There are a ton of rock star photographers that would love to take your money and talk about themselves and some vague theories of how to become successful.

If you’re looking for real information that can help your bottom line, then you want to listen this. Joe and Mirta Barnet are the real deal. You won’t find too many people that will be as transparent about their business as the Barnets. To be honest, I think they give away too much information. It’s just their nature–they really enjoy what they do and can’t help themselves from talking about it. Want to know their prices? Just ask them. Want to know how they close more deals? Just ask them. Want to know Joe’s credit card number? Well, you can try asking him.

As a business owner myself, I’m always looking for profitable information. The one thing I noticed is that the most valuable sources tend to be less visible and generally found by a friend’s recommendation–not media hype or mass advertising. Don’t be marketed, learn how to market with the Barnets. Most workshops of this caliber often run in the thousands. You’ll be pleasantly surprised that they charge MUCH LESS. I’m pretty sure you’ll get a great ROI and leave the workshop with something you can use immediately.

To your success!

Afraid that someone’s going to recognize you while you pick up your prints and hot dog combo?

If this is you, we got the solution. No, it’s not a pair of sunglasses and a trench coat. We got professional quality proofs for dirt cheap, almost Costco cheap. Our PRO Proofs now go as low as $0.18 each for 3.5×5, 4×5 and 4×6 size proof prints on Fuji Professional Lustre paper, not the cheap stuff.

Finish off those gorgeous proofs with our beautiful Chocolate Packaging and you got Louis Vuitton style at Kirkland prices! Who says bling had to be expensive? So pimp your proofs at Fotoworks PRO!

We wish all of you the very best this holiday season.

The Fotoworks PRO elves will be taking a little break after this busy season. We will be closed from December 25 to January 3. Our doors will reopen for the bright new year on Monday, Jan 4, 2010.

Struggling to make your photography business profitable? Looking to increase your current business? Trying to make that leap to becoming a full time photographer?

If your looking for that silver bullet to miraculously turn your business into a multi-million dollar success story, give up already! There’s no such thing. But, there are some real steps you can take to make more money and even change your lifestyle. How about a no nonsense workshop that gives you the nuts and bolts to make real progress?

The Barnet Workshops will give you just that. If you know Joe and Mirta like I do, you know them as honest hard working people who give it to you straight without the BS. I’ve always known them as experienced professionals with a solid business acumen. You just don’t stay successful without solid fundamentals and a real business that provides a real value to your clients.

So if you’re sick of the over-hyped claims and outrageous prices of some of these fluffed up seminars, take a look at the Barnet Workshops. I seriously doubt you’ll find a better value. For the price of a small trendy tech lifestyle gift, you can take a home something that could change your lifestyle! So you choose, iPod or iSuccess.
