In this lesson

  • Replying to enquiries quickly and usefully
  • The questions to ask before and during the trial
  • Setting up a trial for good light and good decisions
  • The trial record sheet
  • Securing the date without pressure

Every booking passes through the same steps: enquiry, conversation, trial, decision. Brides often contact several artists at once, so how you handle each step decides who gets the date. The good news is that most artists handle it slowly or vaguely. Being prompt, clear and well organised already puts you ahead.
