High-end clients aren’t just looking for “pretty” photos—they want polished, editorial, expensive-looking imagery. Learn the luxury editing secrets that make all the difference.
Exactly a year ago, I didn’t think I would make it to the 1 million dollar mark. I made peace with it. It wasn’t in the cards. It wasn’t going to happen. I was several hundred thousand dollars away from a goal I had set (repeatedly, for years). If I’m being really honest, I just couldn’t see how it would be possible–I didn’t know what else to sell or how to sell it.
I hit a point in my business where I wanted to just coast towards the end of the year and not push myself to hit this goal–like maybe it just wasn’t meant for me. It happens for others, but just wasn’t going to happen for me.
Then I had a level up session with my business coach. I was telling her I should just have peace about where I was, that I had all my needs met, that maybe it was selfish to want more.
She looked at me with her complete knowing, “D’Arcy, if you want to make the million–DECIDE TO MAKE THE MILLION. Once you decide, really decide–then you’ll know the way. Get your mindset on board, and everything else will follow.”
You hear it all the time–successful people and entrepreneurs who say that you “just have to decide” and then it happens. It sounds too simple to be true – but it is true.
Listen, simple doesn’t mean easy. Simple means simple. Below are the steps I took to reach my goal…
And voila–by the end of the year, I had hit a million dollars +++ in revenue.
I want to help you open up your vision of possibility for the rest of this year. I want to help you step into the belief that no matter how far away you think you are from hitting your income goal for this year – you are just one decision away from the journey towards it and that it’s all unfolding right now to give you the biggest year yet.
Did you know, across all industries, the most money is made in Q4? A huge majority of businesses even make 75% of their yearly income just in those four months alone! If you’re a wedding photographer, engagement season starts in November. If you’re ready to launch a mentorship program, leading up to New Years is when people are most likely to invest in programs. The list goes on and on. The money is here now.
This last quarter of the year is a great time to stay invested in your business growth (and your personal growth) because there is so much opportunity in this short amount of time. And I want you to stay on your toes and get to December 31st and be blown away by your business results.
