😅 So you want to inquire about a videographer's rate? 🍲 I can best equate the "what's your rate" question to walking into a restaurant and asking how much does their food cost. 🤔 The question is so "straight-to-the-point" that there's just not a lot of context to go off of. Are you asking this question to a fancy restaurant or a fast food restaurant? What type of cuisine does this restaurant serve? How much food do you need to order? 📱So when approaching a videographer about their rates, you'll get a mixed bag of responses. 📝 But if you come prepared on these questions, this will help you get a direct/quicker response when you make your inquiry with a videographer: 1. What is the scope of the project? 2. What is the timeline for this project? 3. Is there any pre- or post- production work needed? 4. What is the desired result for this video? 🎥 Hopefully, these questions will help you on your search for your next video project! 🧬 #VideographyTips #CreativeServices #ClientCommunication #VideoProduction #Value #protip #vegasvideography #vegasvideographer #vegaslocal
