Richard Grenfell of www.thriveboudoir.com.au has been featured on the podcast several times in the coaching diary series.
He started working with photography business coach Steve Saporito after shutting down a long-running and successful pawnbroking/money lending business in Queensland, Australia.
He moved into a shop front studio and focused on serving local families with his new photography business and high expectations. Twelve months later, there were issues with the leased shopfront, and he was facing a move, something he wasn't crazy about.
Instead of relocating, he constructed a purpose-built studio outside of town, on his property. He changed his photography focus from families to headshots and boudoir and is averaging just over $3000 per client.
His next big plan is to work six months and take six months off to travel and live overseas.
In this interview, Richard shared exactly how he has made the successful and profitable move from family to boudoir photography.
