The Birmingham Commercial Photographers struggle

You got into this to shoot. Not to drown in admin work.

📝

Complex licensing terms in every deal

Web only, web plus print, exclusive for 24 months, worldwide digital in perpetuity — every client wants different usage rights, and unclear licensing costs you thousands in underpriced work.

Contract builder lets you spell out licensing scope, territory, duration, and exclusivity clearly per project.

👥

Multi-stakeholder approval chains

The marketing director commissions the shoot, the brand manager reviews selects, the VP approves finals, and procurement processes the PO. You're navigating four relationships per project.

Centralized client profiles track every contact, communication, and approval status per project.

💸

Project-based vs retainer billing

Some clients hire you per project with milestone payments. Others want monthly retainers for ongoing content. Tracking both billing models in spreadsheets is a recipe for missed revenue.

Flexible invoicing handles project milestones, retainer billing, and licensing fees with custom line items and payment tracking.
