It's Happened Again.
Please think before
you buy....a must
read I
Just finished speaking to a customer to follow up how they were going with their
wedding plans in regard to booking a photographer. They informed me they
had just booked another photographer, I congratulated them and asked what their
deciding factor was. To my surprise the customer hesitated, then informed
me that they really wanted to book us, but were sucked in by high pressure
cunning sales tactics. They told me that after the sale they sat in their
car and asked each other why they did that.
I actually didn't now what to say, but asked
if they had paid any money. They had paid money so I let them know they
probably would not get it back. The only advise I could give them was the
studio they had gone
 with
was quite good, and to follow what their gut was telling them as you only get
one chance at this. The
long story short, think before you buy don't get suckered in by flashy
sales talk, weddings are not about sales but a personally shared experience that
will last a life time. The photographer plays a big part
in your day, so make sure they are right for you. There is no
second chance to wish you did it differently after the fact i.e.
Cheap now, cheap forever, cheap photography. To cut the
cost of a quality package you have to cut something often
cheapening the package. If a photographer is offering
seemingly the same thing but ridiculously cheaper, ask yourself
is it too good to be true and what is the catch. The catch you
will have to figure out yourself because they will never tell
you. The client about which this story is written also
noticed after the fact that the additional cost were twice ours
i.e. family reprints. You need to look deeper at the
hidden costs.
At iDeZign there are no selling pressures,
only a friendly conversation to get to know each other and information about our
services. We firmly believe if we have to pressure people into our
services then our product is not good enough to stand on it's own. We also
believe in the policy of 'shoot well do well'. If we produce excellent
work we find clients order more because they love it and want more, and never
because we pressured them into it.
iDeZign is all about an
enjoyable and fun experience. We believe that each of our clients sets the
challenge to exceed their expectations. |
