Apply for The Franchise

Elite 1‑on‑1 mentorship. Overflow work from a real agency. Territory protection so you own your city, not just a camera.

This is for shooters who are done playing “freelancer” and ready to build a real photography business that outlives any one client.

Investment

$5,000

One‑time payment. Lifetime access to the systems, mentorship, and overflow deals.

If $5k feels terrifying, start with the core program and come back when your route is humming. This is for people already moving who want to go faster.

What You Actually Get

This isn’t a course login and a “good luck.” It’s a business partnership for people who plan to win.

🎯

Weekly 1‑on‑1 Mentorship

No group calls. No “hot seats.” Just a private hour each week where we rip apart your bottlenecks and rebuild the business around profit and time‑freedom.

💼

Qualified Overflow Work

When the agency is overbooked, leads don’t get wasted. They go to franchisees. You get agents who already believe in the offer and are ready to pay.

🗺️

Territory Protection

One franchisee per metro. When you claim a city, that’s it. No training your future competition across town.

🤝

Plug Into Our Team

Use the same editors, scripts, CRM setups, and VA hiring funnels that run a multi‑tens‑of‑thousands‑per‑month agency. No guessing. No reinventing.

📞

Direct Slack Access

Need help closing a $5k package? New agent wants a custom deal? Drop it in Slack and get an answer in hours, not “support ticket” timelines.

🏨

Occasional Resort / Travel Shoots

When bigger commercial or resort projects come up and you’re the right fit, you can be on the short list. Paid portfolio pieces in spots most people vacation to.

Plus Everything From The Core System

Skill‑stacked photography & composition training.
Proven outreach, follow‑up, and referral templates.
Email and SMS campaigns that fill your route.
Pricing / packaging built to protect your margin.
Automations so you’re not hand‑holding every job.
Access to a private, vetted operator community.

Who This Is (And Isn’t) For

Perfect Fit

  • Already shooting (even part‑time) and want leverage, not just more gigs.
  • Ready to invest in systems, people, and growth—not “tips & tricks.”
  • See yourself running an agency / small team instead of staying solo forever.
  • Coachable, willing to implement, and okay being pushed when you stall.
  • Can carve out 10–20 hours per week for 90 days to build this for real.

Not a Fit

  • Brand‑new to photography (start with the core system first).
  • Looking for “passive income” that doesn’t involve real work.
  • Want to stay solo forever and never manage people or systems.
  • Not in a position to invest $5k without resenting the process.
  • Hate feedback, accountability, or being asked for proof of execution.

Book Your Application Call

This is a qualification call, not a pitch deck. The goal is simple: figure out if this move actually makes sense for you and your market.

Duration: 30 minutes • No pressure • Camera‑off is fine if you’re at a job

On The Call, We Will:

1️⃣

Map Where You Are

Current revenue, clients, market, and what’s actually blocking growth.

2️⃣

Outline Your Route

How a franchise slot could stack on top of (or replace) what you’re doing.

3️⃣

Decide Together

If it’s a yes, you’ll get a payment link. If not, you still leave with clarity.

Common Questions

Is this a “franchise” legally?

No. “The Franchise” is a mentorship and partnership program. You keep your brand name and entity. You’re buying systems, overflow opportunities, and direct guidance—not a legal franchise registration.

How much overflow work will I actually see?

It swings by market and season. Some months it’s a couple of extra shoots, some months it can stack into five‑figure chunks. On the call, the current pipeline for your area will be shared so expectations stay real.

What cities are open right now?

A handful of major metros are open at any given time. On your application call, your city and nearby markets can be confirmed before either of us commits to anything.

Can I split the $5k into payments?

No. This is a one‑time investment. The goal is to work with people who are already operating at a level where $5k into their business makes logical sense, not emotional sense.

Is there any refund policy?

No refunds. That’s why there is a qualification call first. If both sides don’t feel confident that this can be a win, it simply doesn’t move forward.

Ready To Talk Like A Builder, Not A Freelancer?

Book the call. If it’s a fit, you’ll know. If it’s not, you still walk away with a clearer plan for your next 12 months.

If you ghost the call or show up unprepared, your city won’t be held for a second try.
