Studio Build Update

We are coming to the end of week 2 of the Studio build. We have been working long days to make the most of the weather and the fact that I am around to be the labourer for this period. It has gone well, that's not to say we didn't have problems but thankfully they have been dealt with and the Building Regs people are content, the builder even managed to get the floor lowered internally to give me an additional 6 inches of headroom for the lights which is great, My builder has been superb throughout he is a workaholic with a meticulous eye for detail! The next time Building Regs will be back is just before we start to put the roof on, lets hope the weather stays on our side.

Business Training

Last week I attended the Business seminar presented by Mark Cleghorn and Kenny Martin. This was an intensive 3 day business seminar program, designed to provide the delegates with the benefits of the tutors combined 50+ years of business knowledge, well the more pertinent points anyway, to ensure the delegates can turn their businesses around. The best way to describe it is-

Informative, Intuitive and Inspiring! it was a truly Business changing experience!

Both of the tutors provided business guidance to ensure that businesses such as my own, will continue to be around and not fold through poor management, inadequate planning or negative customer relations/feedback to name but a few. The feedback from the course highlighted the dedication to delivering facts and techniques that most photographers don’t even know, let alone are willing to divulge or part with, that both of them freely shared with the delegates.
