IMPORTANT INFO TO KNOW


  • I'm limiting the number of Brand Story Club memberships to keep my schedule manageable so that I can truly give members a premium experience.

  • I’m keeping the enrollment period short so that I have a clear picture for the year of whether and how many additional one-off sessions I can accommodate. Enrollment will start at 10:00 on October 5, and will remain available until 23:59 on October 13 (unless the membership slots sell out before that).

  • I will post my availability calendar twice a year: once on the first day of enrollment for the fall/winter season and in the last week of January for the spring/summer season.

  • The calendar will be self-scheduled by the members themselves on a first-come, first-served basis (so joining the membership early during the enrollment period will be particularly beneficial if you want first dibs on those coveted peak fall spots).

    for both the fall/winter and the spring/summer calendars, I will guarantee that there is at least one slot open for each member (likely several more), such that in the unlikely case that every member wanted to schedule in a single season, there would still be room.

    in future years, existing members will have access to the fall/winter calendar the day before new member enrollment begins, making it beneficial to be an early joiner both in terms of price and scheduling priority.

  • Optional mini-sessions will be 30 minutes long, include a complete set of digital files, and cost XXX EUR, billed separately. Those sessions are not in any way expected or required, but are offered in case members need a one-off for something like service launch, workshop, giving a talk etc. ... or for something not business realted children portraits, maternity photos, photos with grandparents, etc. Please note that mini-sessions are subject to availability and need to be scheduled directly through me, rather than through the self-scheduling calendar. Advance notice is suggested :)
 
  • Rescheduling for reasons of bad weather, illness, etc. will be handled the same way it always is - we’ll look at the calendar and figure it out. If you realize your date won’t work for another reason - a travel or work conflict, for example - I will work with you to find a new date - just reach out as soon as you realize the issue.
 
  • In future years, members will be asked whether they would like to renew or terminate their membership prior to the new membership enrollment period. There is no commitment beyond the year, and there will be no surprise renewals.
 
  • If you choose to renew but would like to change your subscription level (up or down), you are welcome to do so without penalty, though offerings and pricing may change year to year.

FAQ

Will I get my digital files right away, even if I’ve only made one or two payments before the session?

Yes! Once you sign up and make that initial payment, you can book your session immediately (you’ll get the link for the fall/winter calendar right away). Further, you will receive your gallery on my normal schedule (typically 2-3 weeks after the session), and will be able to download your files and start building your personal brand.


I don’t really think I need brand photos every year. Can I buy a membership this year, drop out for next year, then join again later?

In theory you can… but there are a couple of important issues to consider.

Issue 1: My guess is that even if the membership doesn’t fill completely this year, by next year it will be full and spots might get hard to come by if members continue to renew (I don't anticipate adding new memberships, just offering any unrenewed spots during the annual enrollment period).

Issue 2: it’s likely that the price will increase in future years. By maintaining continuous membership, you’re guaranteed to be locked in at the current rate. If you drop out and re-join, you will have to do so at the rates offered that year.

Pro Tip: Remember that you can schedule your session at any time during the membership year, so from year to year you can adjust the spacing by up to 23 months ( October 2021 and September 2023, for instance).



What if I sign up and there aren’t any session dates available that work for me?

While I can’t guarantee that a specific date and time will be available when you go to sign up, I am putting absolutely everything I can on the self-scheduling calendar. There are currently between 13 and 17 sessions available during every month of the fall/winter calendar. Even if the membership fills completely and every single member wants a fall/winter session, there are more than enough to go around, so the likelihood is that if you don’t drag your feet to the very end of enrollment and have at least a tiny bit of wiggle room in your calendar, you'll have several options.


Can I join the Brand Story Club if I don’t live in Geneva?

You certainly can, but there will be additional traveling fee.



Can you tell more about the stock image library form Strong Brand Club? How exactly does it work?

The ideas is that I will create visual content for my members non stop, so you ALWAYS have what to post. We will make your own brand photo collection with many little things (your business cards, your brand elements, small details and important things), that I will be photographing throughout the year. The images I will create will work perfectly well with your brand and make the overall impression much stronger. You can expect up to five beautiful photographs every month and anytime you have a new idea, want to launch a new service, workshop or have a promotion – I will create beautiful images to go with it! I will also create two promotional show reels for your business. This can be a mixture of photos, your brand message and your business information.


What is marketing and branding training library?

This is a collection of small courses, that will allow you to fix big and little things in your business. You will get an access to one new training every month for free during your membership and we will have a monthly live session to discuss it together.

This is the training schedule for the next 6 months:

1. Landing page, that converts
2. Email nurture sequence
3. Finding out more about your ideal clients.
4. How to host a giveaway.
5. Waiting list strategy.
6. SEO

I don’t understand the mini-session thing.

The mini-session option is something I wanted to offer to members simply because sometimes they come in handy.

Let’s say you want to get a few professional photos when you are hosting a workshop, or you need a few fresh photos for a seasonal promation. Or maybe you need photos not related to your business, fo example, parents and siblings all come to town for an event, or you’re pregnant and would like a few photos of your belly, your kid is turning 16 and you want to surpeiseher with a photo shoot… these are all examples where a 30-minute session with 10 files is plenty. I don’t offer those to the general public, but they’re going to be an option for all my members at any time, assuming I have availability (for instance, we can find 30 minutes during your pregnancy, but if your family is in town when I’m out of town, that might be trickier… all I can say is I’ll do my best). Don’t get thrown off, though: if you don’t need a mini-session, no problem. If you want it, it’s there.

If you’ve still got questions, don’t hesitate to reach out! I understand that this is a new concept, and am here to clarify anything that you’re unsure of!
