Episode 23 - The Day Before Everything Changes

The Day Before Everything Changes

Hello, it's Matthew Jordan Smith, and today I wanna speak directly to you. You're listening to this podcast, on the day it comes out, today is January 5th, 2026, and if you've been listening to this podcast for a while. You already know something big is coming. Tomorrow. January 6th, we begin the photography breakthrough three day live workshop.

This workshop is for you if people have seen your work and inquire about hiring you, but you lose them the minute you tell them your price.

This workshop is for you if you feel stuck. In any way in your photography, maybe you are afraid to raise your prices because you think if you do, you'll lose the clients you have, or maybe you think no one will pay your price.

This workshop is for you if you've been working hard, but income is inconsistent. You see, I know the frustration that comes from all of that. You are talented. I know you care. I know your work has value.

But somehow it still feels like people don't see it. Well, my friend, that ends tomorrow because this workshop is designed to help you finally break through the fear that's been holding you back from raising your prices and getting consistent paying clients month after month.

You've been guessing and second guessing, but you don't need to anymore. You don't need to keep waiting, and you definitely don't need to lower your value just so you can get booked to do what you love.

You just need the right tools, the right system, and the right support, and that's exactly what you wanna get starting tomorrow.

A clear path to a system to raise your prices with confidence. 
A way to show value to your clients so they can say yes. Even at your higher rate.
What you'll also find inside this workshop is a clear path to consistent income. As you do the work that lights you up.
