We’ve talked a bit about how to avoid the pricing game and controlling business costs but how else can you stay competitive without losing your profit margin?  Easy!  Seek out some of the best resources available to you free of charge!  Now…I am a big advocate of normally you get what you pay for.  For most things in life.

While saving for education and 1:1 help from an experienced business consultant or photographer is probably is your best bet, why not take a gander at some of the free content available at your fingertips in the mean time!
