Barrett & Coe Licence To Thrill

01/04/08

Focus On Imaging

The 2008 Focus exhibition proved to be very successful for Barrett & Coe the UK’s leading Wedding and Portrait Photography Members Group.

It was only a few minutes after the opening when the first visitor of the day attended the stand to find out more about the exciting additions to their training and marketing/business building services. It was not unexpected that people had travelled the length and breadth of the UK to find out more from founders Andrew Coe and Brian Barrett.

Training

During the past 7 years Barrett & Coe have trained more than 200 people to earn a living from weddings/portrait photography. None of who had any previous photographic experience.

For example following the portrait course successful graduates can expect to take £1000 per week giving a gross profit of £800 per week. Many students on completing their Barrett & Coe course have completed 20 or more weddings in their first season.

You would be ‘coached’ to be in the top 10% of photographers in your area. Your images will look like you have been doing this for 10 years.

Barrett & Coe are quite specific in setting achievable objectives with you making money from it as soon as is possible.

Pregnancy and Baby Photography

Barrett & Coe have the exclusive contract to supply leads from Emma’ Diary, a publication and website fast becoming the UK’s most popular in its field.

The continued success in using the Emma’s Diary data to get sittings and sales is now working for almost 120 photographers. There are still areas available so call now to secure yours.

Licence To Thrill!

New to Focus was the introduction of the Barrett & Coe Licence Agreement, an opportunity for photographers to join their already successful Members Group to provide access to the complete range of training, marketing and business services. These proven ways to build a more profitable business can be incorporated into an existing photography business without any loss of independence or local identity.

Each member receives between 50 and 100 quality wedding leads per year.

The all important website presence is achieved in a big way with consistent ‘Top Ten’ rankings on Google and other key search engines. Local brand/identity is achieved with an innovative approach to marketing personal websites.

Other major wedding platforms such as Confetti, the UK’s largest wedding website and Yell.com site are again a superb benefit to members specifically in relation to results, profiles and costs.

Andrew Coe told us, “The Licence Agreement means that ambitious and committed photographers can join us and take advantage of the things we have developed previously. Its ‘win-win’ for everyone as they get our marketing expertise, discounts, nationally generated wedding and portrait leads for their area and a whole host of other services. For us we are much closer to having complete coverage of the UK so that we can undertake things such as TV and magazine advertising and build relationships with Blue Chip companies. All now well within our grasp.”

Stop Press
It was tired but enthusiatic party from Barrett & Coe that arrived back after an exhausting 10 days at the recent WPPI Convention and Trade Show in Las Vegas. With so much to digest and with some new ideas and innovations to introduce this is going to be an even busier next few weeks for the Barrett & Coe Members Group.

The SWPP 2008 Convention was an outstanding success,
we have 130 days to get ready for the 2009 convention - which starts on January 14, 2009
