Referral Incentives!!!!

Have you ever wished that you could earn commission on things that you recommend to others, just the same as if you were a sales person at a department store? Wouldn't that be nice. I know that there have been many things in my life that I could have racked up lots of commission on, but unfortunately that is not the way the world works..........most of the time.

Lucky for you, I have decided to try something new. I am now implementing Referral Incentives. And the best part is, you don't even have to be a previous customer of mine.

Here's how it works. When you refer a client to Carri Beth Photography, and they complete a session with me, you will receive a $35 credit toward the purchase of Desk Prints*.  If you are such an incredible sales person that you have referred 4 or more clients (who have paid for and completed their sessions**) to Carri Beth Photography, you will become a VIP Customer, and you will receive 20% off*** of your print purchases for the duration of your loyalty to Carri Beth Photography. Pretty exciting, right?  That means that a VIP customer could essentially receive a minimum of $140 in Desk Prints PLUS 20% off of any additional print purchases. AMAZING! It doesn't end there though. Each person that pays for and completes a session with me, and gives me the name and contact information of the person who referred them, will receive a Print Credit worth $35 to put toward the purchase of desk prints. How cool is that. Everybody wins here. So go ahead, tell your friends about Carri Beth Photography. I can't wait to meet some new faces. :)

* Any credits redeemed will be toward Desk Prints only, and do NOT count toward the print credit that is usually included in the session fee, and cannot be put toward the purchase of a print package or any other print purchases. The full $500 session fee is still due upon session booking.

** The referred customer must have their session paid for and completed before any credits will be distributed.

*** The VIP discount of 20% off can not be combined with any other sale or offer, and can not count toward the purchase of a print package. Each VIP customer will have the right to choose to use their VIP discount, or to go along with any current sales that are being offered. A choice must be made upon ordering, and will be final for that ordering session. The VIP discount is only viable throughout the client's loyalty with Carri Beth Photography, and may be rescinded if the client chooses to do business with another portrait photographer.

....and 25% OFF for Everyone else!!!

After I posted the Newborn Casting Call, I received some inquiries about whether or not I am taking babies older than 1 month, or any other kind of session at all. Of course I am. :)

And since I feel bad about leaving anyone out, I have decided to run a HOMECOMING SALE. I am incredibly happy to be back in michigan, where people actually smile at you in the grocery store (seriously, they didn't do much of that in Florida), so I am offering EVERYONE else 25% off of their entire print order.* I will keep this sale going as long as the casting call, although you will have to have your session completed by February 17, 2010 to receive the 25% off, so hurry up and schedule those sessions.

* The 50% off of your purchase does not apply to packages, and cannot be combined with any other offer.

And just because a blog post is just not complete without a picture, here is one from last year that I just found, of my Maddie Moo. She's gotten so big since then.

Newborn Casting Call | Receive 50% off prints and up to $100 in free gifts

So now that I am back home, I'm thinking, what better way to kick things off here in MI than to have a newborn casting call. The winter months are a bit restricting when it comes to on-location photography, but it is a GREAT time to crank up the heater and unwrap those squishy little babies for their photographic debut. For participating in this casting call, you will receive 50% off of your entire print purchase, including announcements, photo books or albums, and gallery wrapped canvases.* You will also receive a Free Gift worth $50. It is preferable that the the photo session takes place within the first 7-10 days after birth, but this deal will be good for babies all the way up to 1 month old. Although, anyone who completes their session within that initial 7-10 day timeframe will receive an Additional Free Gift worth $50. All you have to do is contact me to book your session. The session fee will be due upon booking to reserve your spot and ensure that you will receive the savings offered with this casting call. Of course, no one can predict exactly when your baby will arrive, so the actual date and time of the photo session will be scheduled after your baby's birth date. Be sure to schedule it quickly to maximize your chances of being able to get in before the baby is over 10 days old, so that you can enjoy the full potential of this offer.

I will be running this casting call for six weeks, so you must have your session booked and payed for by midnight on February 17, 2010. What if you are not due until after that date? As long as you are booked and payed for by the end date of this offer, you can enjoy the benefits that come along with it when you do have your baby.

The session fee is $300, and $150 of that goes towards your print purchase. So let's get those babies scheduled, and allow you to enjoy receiving 50% off your purchase and $50-$100 in FREE GIFTS. I cannot wait to start capturing those precious first moments that pass by so quickly.
