Adorable Pet Photos Can Make You $500 - $1,000 In One AfterNoon - It's A Fun & Simple Way To Earn!

In Response To: Re: Mr. Shulenski and adorable pet photos (Natalie)

Hi Natalie, Producing saleable pet portraits is very easy. Most people think that it takes years of practice to make it as a portrait photographer. But Sears, Owen Mills, JC Penneny’s, Wal-mart and other National Portrait Studios routinely hire non photographers and train them in just 1 – 3 weeks.

With today’s digital cameras and easy to use photo editing software it’s really a snap. Taking cute saleable pictures just takes a little practice and if the National Studios can train people in 1 – 3 weeks time you can learn it yourself by simply following a few simple rules and taking action.

I can’t guarantee you’ll become an Ace Photographer because that takes lots of shooting but the more you shoot the better you’ll get. What I can guarantee you is a Marketing System that will get you business and lots of it . . . . plus my personal ongoing help.

I have a $5,000 cash reward for the first person who can show me a faster, easier, more effective, lower cost way for any new photographer to get paying clients within 30 days of starting.

There are others selling information on this for ten times more than what I charge but they all teach the same old worn out things. Some even advertise that you just have to sit back and wait for the phone to ring. You pay them $1,000 only to be told to get your imagines displayed in banks, restaurants, doctors and dentist offices and shopping malls, learn how to write good copy and design better yellow page ads. Then spend a ton of money on these traditional advertising methods and go home, sit back and wait, wait, wait.

My system is pretty much turn key. Just substitute my name and contact details with yours and you are ready to go. No trying to figure out what to write, what to say, what to print, or what to do and how to do it. If you ever get stuck I’m only a phone call or email away.

My wife and I photograph people and pets almost everyday and most of the time we shoot with just a handful of props and one main light. Most of our props we found in thrift shops or in the bottom of dumpster bins so once you have these you use them over and over again. Once you know how to set up and take any particular saleable pose you can easily duplicate it over and over again.

For example. . . take a look at the picnic basket in the photo below. I found this on the curb during spring cleanup and just added $5 worth of artificial flowers to it. Shot it on one light on a black background. After you know how to set up and take that shot once you can do it over and over and over again and people absolutely love it. I have 6 – 12 poses that I duplicate with every almost every dog. How hard is that?

The hard part is not in knowing what to do (I can teach you that) the hard part is getting yourself to just do it (that’s the part I can’t do for you – it’ up to you) but if you enjoy taking pictures and like working with people and pets this can really pay off for you. Why work a job you hate or if you want to do photography – for a National Studio for $500 - $1,000 per week when you can earn that much from a single one hour shoot “Shooting Antique Glamour Portraits” or “In an afternoon of taking pet portraits”?

Cheers,

NOTICE TO SCUMBEEZLES
(you know who you are... you scream "Foul!" when the truth comes out)
        PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT.  It has been done before, but never successfully.  In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
        If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace.
        NEWS FLASH:  I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday.  I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish.  I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?).  I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" 
        Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures.

        Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.  We are not responsible or liable for any claim arising from the content of any such discussions or postings or for any error, defamation, libel, slander, omission, falsehood, obscenity, pornography, profanity, danger, or inaccuracy contained in any information contained within such locations on the Site.
        You are prohibited from posting or transmitting any unlawful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene, scandalous, inflammatory, pornographic, or profane materials or any material that could constitute or encourage conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any law.  You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual.  We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials.
        By posting messages and/or content on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, you give permission for Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications to display, distribute and use the posting and content for publication, advertising, promotion, excerption or example. You grant Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications complete, perpetual, but non-exclusive rights to use, archive, reproduce, adapt, modify, distribute, sub-license, repurpose, rework, compile, or offer for sale or resale the messages, postings or content appearing on this site in whole or in part, throughout the world and universe, on a royalty-free basis without remuneration.  If you cannot accept or agree with the terms of service for this website and discussion board, you are advised not to post on this board.
        In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact.
        And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!).
