Can you live off your photography?

Setting a goal is nice, but can it pay the rent?

Hi there! 👋

How are you going to live as a photographer?

You know what number you need to hit each month. You don’t need a budget spreadsheet or read I Will Teach You to Be Rich (although I highly recommend it). 

But you do need to set your goal based on what you need in your household to replace your current income. Maybe you’re in salaried position making $50K. Can you make enough profit to cover your business expenses AND pay yourself $50K?

*Remember revenue is the big dollar number that comes in; profit is (or can be) what you pay yourself at the end of the day.

So earning $50K in your photography might mean earning $70-80K in revenue.

You follow so far?

P.S., In tomorrow’s email, we’ll figure out who’s going to pay you that much money!

Cheers,
Jordan P. Anderson
