The Work Between bridges the gap from art to income. It's the business space where most photographers get stuck, second-guess themselves, or feel like they’re winging it. We’re Allison and Jenny, photographers, educators, and the creators of MOTIV. Everything we’ve built is openly shared here, because we believe anyone can succeed with the right information. Full transparency. No invoice attached. If you're ready for clarity, support, and a business that works as hard as you do, you’re in the right place.MOTIV 2025 アート 出世 就職活動 教育 経済学

  • Your Website Isn’t Enough—Why You Need a Google Business Profile
    2025/10/07

    If you’re putting energy into SEO and your website but ignoring your Google Business Profile… it’s time to fix that.

    In this episode, we’re talking about one of the most underused and misunderstood tools photographers have access to: your Google Business Profile (GBP).
    We’ll break down:

    • Why showing up in the Map Pack matters more than you think
    • How your GBP helps you rank even if your website isn’t perfect
    • The most common mistakes photographers make when setting it up
    • What to post, how often, and how to get reviews that actually work

    And yes, we’ll share exactly what we do inside our own business to stay visible without spending a dime on ads.

    Whether you’re brand new to GBP or just haven’t touched it in months, this episode is a must-listen if you want more local inquiries without more hustle.

  • You’re Not Too Expensive—You’re Just Out of Their Budget
    2025/09/30

    “We love your work, but…”


    Ugh. You already know what’s coming next.


    A soft no that turns into self-doubt, panic pricing, or worse—discounts that eat your profit alive. But here’s what we want you to remember:


    You’re not too expensive.
    You’re just not for everyone’s budget. And that’s okay.


    This episode will help you stop internalizing pricing objections and start owning your worth—without apology.

    We’re walking through:

    • What “out of budget” really means (hint: it’s not personal)
    • How to use our free CODB calculator to actually price with clarity
    • Why being part-time doesn’t mean part-priced
    • What to say when someone asks for a discount or compares you to someone cheaper

  • Why You're Delivering Too Many Images (And How to Fix It)
    2025/09/23

    You’re over-delivering—and undercutting your profit.


    Photographers often add more images “just to be nice,” or because a gallery feels incomplete without them. But what is it actually doing?

    Confusing your client, bloating your workflow, and burning you out.

    In this episode of The Work Between, we’re walking through the hidden cost of over-delivery and how to easily fix it.
    You’ll learn:

    • Why delivering too many images is confusing your clients (not impressing them)
    • How over-delivery sabotages your pricing structure and long-term profitability
    • The sweet spot for how many images to include—and how to decide
