Love it! Great video man! I am in the process of gathering more clients and transitioning from free to paid. I'm definitely going to go to my local farmers markets
congrats!! I am curious about how you are pricing yourself to paid clients.. i am in this transition myself
Yeah I would never have thought of that too!
Hi, this is an old comment so not sure if I will get a response. But how do you price your packages once you transition?
What's good fam, BTW ur content is superb. My question is, I wanna know how to accomplish this effect czcams.com/video/gBBDw4ij_1c/video.html
In this link at 2:26 there's a glitch effect here that I just can't seam to find anywhere. Software I'm currently using is final cut pro 10.4.7. Please help if ur able too✊💯
@@dyzelfilmz5596 that looks like an overlay not an effect
Before, I always wanted to get paid. I never got any contracts. Then, when I started made a first attempt of making a short film, it was a complete fail! I realized I talked a big game but played a small one. That was a huge dose of humility. It's been a year now, and I have been practicing doing stuff for free and boy was that helpful! So I agree, do stuff for free first, figure out your workflow, get better at it and then sell your service with confidence.
Cool tips. It's also important to let beginners know they will get a lot of people not calling back or reaching out at the start. Just don't get discouraged.
Kagan So true!
Whenever I'm feeling unmotivated, lost or questioning my videography skills, I come to your channel Daniel. Thank you for the help you give us all, we really appreciate it!
@extremedude1234 I do things like that, are you still interested?
I'm im university business school and this is so on point with what we learn, only it is creative, interesting, and applicable to entrepreneurial ideas
I've worked for agencies for the last few years and starting to head out on my own. Farmers markets is a great shout! I've never thought of that before.
#1 for me ages ago was to always be listening to what's going on around you, ie. have situational awareness. This applies even when you are not out trying to drum up business.
Case 1: I was at a building shared by a few realtors, a pool company and a used car lot. My reason to be there was to shop for a used van. But in conversation he finds out what I do for a living (multimedia). Turns out that's what the car dealer really was into. His video clients included Young Drivers of Canada, manufacturers and architectural fabricators. He kept running the the car dealership when he bought the building and had no one to run it. He didn't make the studio being there public knowledge because it had been broken into a few times. I ended up moving in to a spare office and providing a segment of digital that he could now add to his services.
Case 2: I was cold calling a restaurant to sell something unrelated, before I got into video. A customer who was paying at the front overhead my pitch to the restaurant and that turned into several years of graphic design services for him, his wife's publishing business and his friends' businesses, because once you latch onto an entrepreneur, you often find the people they like to associate with are of the same entrepreneurial disposition.
Just keep yourself upbeat and presentable. I was never on the "sell" but I was always ready to meet a need. Big difference in attitude.
It so true what you say about the service being priority #1. People think your brand is your presentation. Your brand is actually your customer experience. The way you conduct your service with the client determines their customer experience and determines your brand.
Love how you just get straight to the point with your golden takeaways. Kudos to you man, subscribed.

You haven't missed a single point. I have learned each and every thing. Thank you for this amzing tips. You turned me from a subscriber to a fan
Just fallen into a deep hole of watching all of your videos this afternoon, such killer content and I love that you include tips for beginners! When you were starting out your business, did you have a day-job on the side to help pay bills and if so, when did you decide to go full-time?
Just came across your channel today and I've already subscribed! You have amazing videos and I always think it's cool to find other Canadian videographer CZcamsrs. Love your stuff!
Thank you! I am trying to start a business doing something like this and this is the first video I’ve watched that is actually helpful for getting clients.
Uploaded since 2018 and no dislike, that's a lot of value you are offering !
Im hooked on your videos already, so satisfying to watch idk the way you construct your videos are just so well made
I went to a random small venue concert for a band known around the midwest and took a few photos and videos. just posting that alone expanded visibility. I am now friends with the band that their followers started following.
I swear I am the beginner of yutuber and start learning video making and fortunately i found your channel, it really really helps me and is inspired me so much. Many thanks for all your videos!!!
This is one of the most valuable and beneficial videos on this subject that I’ve watched, really practical tips, thanks man!
Hey, I'd love to see a video breakdown of budgeting and how someone can out a price on each project. :)

Thanks for the great info man! The farmer's market idea is a unique one for sure, we're going to try it today!
Such solid advice especially the point of using your platform as a portfolio and hitting local businesses about work! The Internet is a wonderful thing, and its really easy to miss the obvious in real life opportunities.
This is the best video I have found on CZcams about this subject. I am hitting subscribe now. I have been in the media industry for over 15 years but I'm looking at breaking off to freelance full time this year so this is very helpful.
Thanks for watching :)
your pursuit for quality is inspiring.
1Million of Subs! Congrats bro! You are awesome, I have learned a ton on your channel, so go ahead! 🎉🎊
I watched this video 6 months ago and decided to design and make my own business cards. It was a long process but now im rewatching this video with the card in my hand, hoping to learn about the distribution of them. Thanks for your help!
And?
Love your videos brother! Keep doing you. Informative, yet concise - something that's seems to be quite rare these days on youtube. Nice colours btw ;)
Thanks so much for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed :)
Love the farmers market idea! I am a photographer and I am definitely going to try this out this week!
I have seen a lot of videos. But your suggestions were the best and useful. Thank You.
Great advice! I was doing free services, but currently editing my last free music video. Im at a point when ppl are asking for video deals, which lets me know that I'm there, the point where all hard work and money can pay off. My advise, offer atleast 3-4 free to dirt cheap videos or as many as you want until you are sure of your work..but don't break yourself doing so...don't put too much into it than you can afford..set a certain budget..my budget was 30- 40 bucks for props. In due time, it will all pay for itself.
Thank you so much for these tips! The tip about building up a portfolio when you really don't have anything to show is great and I'm starting to do that and have been getting more attention!
I just found this gem of a Channel!!!
Binge watching your videos
Love your stuff man
Don’t ever stop
There's a farmers market down the street from my house -- definitely using that tip. Thanks!
Helped me a lot, didn't know how to start with photography and now I feel ready to start!! THANK YOU A LOT
A video from 3 years ago and its the most helpful one
You bring so much value to us, your audience. Wow thank you for the great advice.
Really helpful tips Daniel. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Agree %100 percent and thank you for all the great advice Daniel !
Fantastic video! This is one of the things that I'm having the most trouble with. I really appreciate the great advice here! Thank you!
Again, Daniel - thanks for the awesome vid! I'm still very much in the produce content/free stuff stage at the moment - Im also a writer too and I do find that most creative industries these days are as much about the branding and marketing as it is about the actual creative work!
These are as simple as super practical tips, thanks a lot, everything on point 🙌🙌👍
Great advice. Thank you
Very helpful. I'm contracting at media agencies at present but I am want to branch out and build my own client base. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and ideas. Thanks
Your videos are bananas.
Hi Daniel, I am into video production and found this video very helpful. Thank you so much.
Bro big ups to this information its a massive help. I'm just starting on becoming a content creator web developer and video editor and I gotta say I had no idea how to go about it UNITILL this video. Have a blessed and productive day man.
This video was super helpful for me since I'm just starting out getting serious with video. Thank you!!
Thank you for those useful tips! They’re great.
This specific video is gold.
Great content man!
Simple but valuable tips. And people forget that the simple is usually more effective.
Thanks for this video. I'm actually so happy that I watched this video. I'm a videography, where sport/frisbee is my main subject to film. It's like my passion but when you put your best work out and I feel like it didn't make it to the top, I get very discourage. When you stated that you travel just to shoot film, I'm not sure if those were free but I travel just to shot tournaments just to get my name out there. There's a tournament next weekend that I didn't want to go to because the video that I just made didn't seem to have an impact in the ultimate community, but after watching this video, it changed my mind to go. Hopefully I will get better and get those gigs from BIG tournaments because I love to do this.
Awesome stuff man!
Awesome channel dude! Love the honesty. I get lots of people asking me on mine how they can start filmmaking and getting paid work, and I pretty much tell them the exact same thing. Build yourself a portfolio and be honest to the person you're pitching to, and the work will speak for itself. I went around to all the 'nicer' restaurants in my neighbourhood and offered them a free video and photos with an instagram/facebook promotion strategy plan. I hadn't thought of the farmer's market though, that's a brilliant idea! :-) Subbed!
Finally someone straight to the point!
Just came across this video and wanted to say thank you for sharing these tips! These were super helpful!
I love your awesome work. Your plain and humble approach. And some wonderful marketing tips that you left in the video are pretty powerful. Thanks for everything creative.
This video reminds me of a quote from Steve Martin: "Become so good that they can't ignore you". When you become valuable and show it, people will come to you.
IN an industry with millions of guys wanting to do this. Its called market saturation. How much can you shine out ? All of us have to be as unique as James Cameron to make it in film making ?
@@mgr5550 glad im not the only one realise the reality. Some people love to quote "motivational quote" but in reality, WORK YOUR ASS OFF
thanks for the tips Daniel! You make such dope and helpful filmmaking videos, i subbed
Really great business advice for getting started. Thanks a million Daniel.
Dan you're the man, so glad I found your channel
Great tips! It's good to hear some real ideas that aren't the same thing being said over and over.
Sometimes all you need is just a little push in the back. Big thanks for the tips man! 👍👍👍Saw the video this morning and already got an appoitment with a new clients.🙌
Ace advice. I'm a photographer just who is just starting to creating videos. Thanks for sharing.
Solid advice, making real steps forward thanks to this video!
Wow this has been so helpful! Your explanations were clear and you got straight to the point. Thank you!
Really great tangible advise. Thanks so much
i never actually thought of the events tip!! you genius!
The Most helpful video talking about this topic :D thank you man .
Hi Daniel, Thanks for sharing your advice! It’s helpful!
Love to hear your speech, Daniel !
Very helpful tips! Thanks for sharing your experience with getting new clients.
We love that you went to a fashion week, keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for all the insights bro! Love your channel 🙌🏻
Great advice, everyone, also including your latest vids talk about creating, but networking is not mentioned much and is crucial is you want to make photography/videography from a hobby to a business. If no sees your videos, no one knows you exist
Yes! When you're starting out you should always do it for free or cheap, just so you make a bunch of connections and as soon as your name is out there you start charging, just gotta make sure people don't take advantage of you.
Hey Daniel,
Awesome content you are putting out there! I already have 4 videos of yours in my "watch every day to develop" playlist. I'm just about to dive deep into the DLSR filmmaking and move to Lisbon(Portugal) for 3 months to build up a nice portfolio and client base. Thanks for the inspiration and looking forward to seeing more awesome content from you! Cheers!
Thanks for watching and the support! Best of luck!
Daniel Schiffer cheers man!
Thank you so much for this video :) After watching I managed to get my first client ever!

I cannot like this video enough! Thanks Dan, for sharing these tips!
First of all , your voice is so amazing and thanks for the information
Super helpful tips! See you all at the farmers market this weekend
Which light do you use for your videos?
Banana light :-)
Where do you get the banana light from haha
That banana light is dang legit, it would look great in the office haha
Jackal Productions urban outfitters
Funny: liked your comment but didn't answer the question
Man your commercial shots are amazing! 🔥 I want to venture into more cinematic commercial work
this was so helpful and inspiring! thanks, Daniel!!
dope video my man!
The main service is video making, the product is the video. Customer service is something that is in every industry, not your main service here. But yes it is important.
Such a great video !
Thanks on the advice.
I'm just starting out in photography & love it
& really want to do videography as well. Would love to have both as a full time job.
hoodie vibes on point
great tips man. loved it
I really like the idea of offer my services for startups and i will definitely try it as soon as possible =D. Love your videos man. I really want to see a video of your workflow from start to finish ^_^
Thank you Daniel.
You are a good mentor. ナイス🔥
