About This Course

Learn to make a living from anywhere as a Videographer and Photographer

This course shares the real world knowledge for how to start an online video business with your camera through the use of your video footage, video skills, and a laptop. If you were interested in becoming a more business savy and business minded videographer and photographer this course is for you. This course will especially appeal to aspiring travel videographers and photographers.

It will arm you with the knowledge and blueprint to help you land paid free-lance clients and business models to earn passive income revenue streams.  I'm going to help you marry your artistic and technical skills with business skills you need to compete. We're going to cover things like pre-sales, negotiation, invoicing, right through to actual delivery of client videos. This is a practical course that is going to cover actual tools and platforms and tools to help you get a competitive edge as a videographer.

For example, I'm going to explain why you need a website to help clients find you on Internet search engines like google and how I set up my website by taking you behind the scenes. I'm going to share different online business platforms like Gumroad that I use to create and sell digital products using my skills as a videographer.

The other core focus is to build your business while living in another destinations  like Chiang Mai in Thailand. This is also known as a concept called Geo-arbritage that Tim Ferris introduced in his book the 4 hour work week. By practicing geo-arbritage you are free to work on your online business anywhere, but if you are starting from ground zero you have to give yourself some time to build up your revenue especially if living in an expensive city like Vancouver, New York, or London. There are several benefits to working abroad in a destination like Chiang Mai, Thailand.

Chiang Mai Thailand has become one of the worlds most popular locations for other like-minded online entrepreneurs (digital nomads) to base themselves, offers a high standard of living at low cost, warm weather, and a great internet and cafe/co work space infrastructure and culture.

This course is going to cover the essential questions like how you find a place to stay, meet people, where to work, and get connected.

I understand the Digital nomad lifestyle may be something you may not know much about as it has only emerged in the past several years with advancements in laptops, Internet speeds, and growing communities. That is why I've included a separate section with an essential living guide to help prepare you and get you started in Chiang Mai Thailand. I cover basics like where to live, meet people, get connected, and prices of apartments.

I made the mistake of starting my business in Vancouver alone in my apartment. I should have come to Chiang Mai, Thailand where I could work with like-minded people. Starting a business is a lot more fun and it makes a lot more sense if you're learning from people that are doing similar things in a unique setting such as Chiang Mai. I hope to see you in your course to start your entrepreneurial journey.

Main component of the course is a (funnily enough) poorly filmed public seminar where the boring presenter gives a very high-level overview of stock video. The actual "content" in this presentation comes from his answering audience questions. The audience seem, like me, to be thinking "just tell us how to do it!" But even then, Greg's answers are high-level, he refers us to other resources to actually learn how to do things properly, and sometimes he speaks outright misinfo which makes me think perhaps he isn't the expert he makes himself out to be - e.g. He says Canon 'L' lenses are sharper than non-L lenses. Well, no, not quite. Sometimes they are, sometimes they aren't. He also doesn't appear to know the true meaning of bokeh. After the live presentation is a smattering of other videos that appear to be taken from other online courses he runs. Very little of any real practical value here, especially if you already know a bit about cameras.

I like the layout of the course and his honest views and opinions on different ways to make money with videos. Great course Greg, I definitely got a lot of good tips which I will definitely use. So I will update this review as I finished the 2nd part of the course where Greg talks in depth about moving to Chiang Mai and start bootstrapping your business. Great advice and good resources. It is a great guide for people that are looking to move out to Chiang Mai.
