Tristan is a story teller at heart and has done a variety of video work, from weddings to hockey to real estate. He currently works full time on a farm during part of the year, which supports him well financially but does not allow for much time to take on video clients. He wants to build his business the quickest and best way with the time he has. By the end of this one on one session, Tristan has changed his 5 year plan to a 3 year one.

Paul has been working as a film photographer for years but has been lacking passion. He recently conquered his fear of video, got a DSLR and dove right in. Now he is questioning his path and what he can do for clients to give the most value. Michael digs deep as they discover where Paul needs to put his focus - and it's not necessarily shooting and editing video.

In this solo episode, Michael Gebben talks about the downfall of letting others define success for you. The path to success is different for everyone, so it is important to understand how YOU are the differentiator in your work. Gebbs will also cover supply in demand and how it affects pricing, the importance of building trust with clients and ignoring jackass whisperers.

Ashley is on an open road right now, and looking for some clarity. She knows she enjoys video production, video editing, marketing and social media. She has been told by others that there is no money in the local market for video production outside of weddings, but she isn't sure if weddings interest her. Michael talks Ashley through some of the roadblocks and thoughts she has had to see if she is on the right path.

Michael has been full time with his video production for the last year, but is not as far along as he'd like to be. Procrastination has been a big roadblock for him. He can see the improvement in his videography skills, but needs some clarity and confidence to book more consistent jobs at the price points he wants. In today's Jumpstart sessions, Gebbs will cover procrastination, offering a direct vision VS 'The Subway Model', outsourcing what you're not good at and pricing.

Welcome to Jumpstart Sessions! Michael Gebben will be bringing you three weekly episodes to help inspire clarity, confidence and connection into both aspiring and established freelancers. With one on one sessions, Michael will deep dive with guests using behavioral analysis testing to help identify struggles they are having in their creative business.
