Comical!
Well reading the varied interests here - VP selling time - GWC and Pro C selling service, one could be forgiven for falling asleep!
But the original point is very true! A home made cell phone shot with the dog's doo in the frame just sez one thing! Cheap lazy and dirty = Stay away.
OTOH; who on BP/P411/ECCIE/FB street can afford a decent ad? Well charging as much as they do - $150 to $500 - for one client, surely a mere $75 dollars is not going to break the $5000 daily bank?
As a guy owning cameras all of his life, including a couple of fine boxes and lenses rollies/nikors, I would NOT even bother to set up for less than 3 k a day!
As for providers that I like to chose, these days I cruise until I see one. Then for a couple of Jacks I can get what I want, fresh ready( weeetttt) young and horny as hell ! I leave the Motel madames to those brave souls who love ploughing dry ground!
If you want to look like crap - its your business, punters wont be clicking on your shots. But if you want to be seen at your best - like Sonya here in SA -
