“How do we make sure mom gets a print, or how do we make sure grandma gets a print? … So, what we have seen is the most successful people who are selling in the engrain that expectation into the very first meeting… It’s called seeding the sell, and you’re planting those seeds at the very first meeting that you have with the client. You must talk about the experience that they’re going to have.”

More about Gavin…
Gavin and his wife Erin started their photography business just 3 months into dating one another. A year later, after just returning from their honeymoon, they took a leap of faith and turned their shared passion into a full-time profession! Shooting between 30 and 50 weddings a year, they very quickly learned that there were never enough hours in the day. Gavin saw a huge hole in their workflow and their clients’ experience when it came to delivering photos. From there, CloudSpot was born!
Fast forward several years (and a couple of kiddos) later and CloudSpot has become known for being the fastest, easiest, and most customizable way for photographers to deliver and sell their work online! Gavin has a heart for helping fellow photographers be successful in their businesses and creating solutions that give them more time to be doing what they love most!
