I've been watching a lot Chirs Do recently as I try and scale my business more and saw you on his page during a white board demo! I love what both of you are offering to creators and I love the retainer mindset. I had a $5k retainer client that lasted from September - March, but they recently decided to take a pause since they're going to changes in the business. I'm glad they did though becasue it's allowed to me work with a lot more clients at higher rates! I havne't been able to lock in another retainer client just yet, but I just landed a new client and did almost the same thing you were talking about with the "sample bundle package". I put together a small package and took off $500 as a discount, so they're paying $4500 for a couple videos to live primarily on their website. I brought it up non-challantley that I do retainer packages and we could create a similar ongoing content package for them if this shoot goes well. They said they might be interested so hopefully soon I'll have another retainer client that I can lock-in for around $6k (and it's actually LESS work than my previous retainer client that I had for $5k 😎)
This video is fantastic mate, I’m a videographer in the uk and I’ve struggled to find recurring clients, so I’ll definitely be looking into this model! I’ve been subscribed to you for years since you had below 500 subscribers and you’ve consistently put out incredibly meaningful and helpful videos. Cheers for all the work you do!
BEN!! I absolutely remember you! You had the BMPCC 4K and the PM bag! Bro I hope you’ve been well! I started a coaching group, would love to have you in there one day if you ever need! Thanks for checking in!
@@ChrisFranklinJr Yes!! That’s me! I’ve got an FX3 now to thanks to the videos you made a couple years ago! But you’re definitely making me consider the Ronin 4D 🤣 I would very much like to join that group one day!
Local client here in Hattiesburg, MS. Originally, we were going to do a couple of one off projects at about $4,000 per videos but it just made more sense for them to bundle it all together per month and get more than what they pay for!

How do your retainer clients handle when you change camera system and "look" of your work changes?

Absolutely agree with the relationship aspect. What deliverables do you give in the different packages? How are the packages differ in production?
Great content brotha man!!

Absolutely amazing! Thank you so much
