It’s pretty common for many photographers and videographers to find themselves navigating the challenges that come with selling, editing, hiring and growing a business. At OTBx, we understand this really well. We are on a mission to become the global leader in photography and videography and invite you to join us. We believe that we can do more as a team and know that collectively we can create something remarkable.

If you have your own business established today, you will have the option to continue to operate under your brand or fully plug in to leverage the OTBx brand. We can discuss various solutions and options to fit your needs to help you grow.
If you are an established photographer or videographer with an existing book of business, the opportunity to join our Better Together program will not cost you anything. Coming together presents a win/win situation for both of us and we will both have vested interest in your success. By joining Better Together you will be required to utilize our proprietary booking, scheduling and payment system for all work performed. Don’t worry though, you will have complete control over your own schedule.
The relationships and client base that you have is important to OTBx. We would like to ensure that you are able to help continue to nurture the relationships you’ve established in your current market. However, if you are interested in moving on or relocating, we would be interested in discussing options to support you in that effort.
We don’t want you to change anything that you are doing today. If you are making good money in your model by shooting yourself, we can support you in continuing to do just that. We have a philosophy…. “If it’s not broken, don’t fix it” – While we can’t make any promises about what the future holds, we are confident that we have solutions to help you grow and without a ceiling gap on your earnings.
In the beginning it will make a lot of sense for you to continue with your current brand. Co-branding both your current brand and OTBx for a period of time will make sense. There are many advantages to leveraging the OTBx brand and using your own. If you have an existing client base that knows you and your brand well, we would recommend that you continue to operate under that brand. It has a lot of advantages for both parties when it comes to marketing and brand awareness in general.
Yes. We understand that photographers may be at different stages of their business build. That’s perfectly fine. Whether you have a large book of business or are just starting out, we want to hear from you.
