Today I had an customer get back with me requesting our booth for an event at the governors mansion. Obviously I was skeptical, but I called the event coordinator at the mansion and verified the event and the people running it. So I’m excited to be running a Photo Booth at this event. Wish us luck. P.S. love your videos , your doing a fantastic job.
I got the fam reunion scam as well! They asked for 6 hours, all the add-ons, and wanted to pay extra so I can pay the event venue. Feeling the scam, I still created the proposal and sent them the link because my CRM logs the date/time, IP address, and the location where the link was clicked. It was coming from India.
Today, I received a text booking 7-hrs for event with 50 guests. I thought it was odd. I tried to get the person to fill out a form for details. They just ignore it and wanted to pay....then they offer to pay with check which I told we don't do checks, again they ignored it and kept trying to pay with check. I just stop entertaining them.
Thanks again for another informative video. Do you have a video on how to best prepare expenses and invoices for taxes? I’ve used Quickbooks in the past, and have learned that Honey books let you integrate Quickbooks, but I was wondering how you recommend business prepare for taxes. If there’s a video on that already, please link me:)
Thanks for watching! I don’t have a video on that. HoneyBook does have really great features including reports, an expenses tracker, profit and loss statements etc. I’ll be honest and say that I prefer the “old school” way of having a weekly checkin with my finances in a spreadsheet that I then share with my accountant. I love spreadsheets 🤓 haha
There’s a difference between using the words retainer and deposit. Talk with your lawyer but I use retainers for my business. Here’s a video explaining it further: Should You Have a Retainer for Your Photo Booth Business? czcams.com/video/jgrQlmiO3Gg/video.html

Haha there you go! Sometimes they may seem scammy but it’s always worth it to do a bit of investigating. Sounds like a fun event!
I am bingeing so many of your videos as they are so relevant to where I am currently as I begin this photobooth journey. Thank you!
So glad that they’re helpful!!
I wasn't aware these types of scams existed- thank you for the tips 👍
It’s crazy! Especially when you’re eager to book clients when you start, it’s so easy to fall for

Woooooow so they actually clicked it?! It’s so funny that they just run the same scam over and over
Thanks again for the great video Nicole!

Can you tell me about deposits?
