Default Opinions on the "Going Pro" Kit?
I see that DPS is selling information on how to become a professional photographer through a "Going Pro Kit". I was wondering if anyone has purchased it and would like to share their opinion on how satisfied they are with what they received in the kit. I am thinking of buying it, but I could not find any reviews of it in the forum.

I haven't read it. And I have no doubt there is lots of good information in there, but I bet they kept their biggest secret to themselves...

...but I'll reveal it here:

It's true. If you want to make money from photography, find something you can sell to photographers. Look around at all of the well known photographers and what are they doing? Pimping books, e-books, workshops, seminars, etc. etc.

You guys just might be right!

But as far as the "Going Pro Kit" is concirned. I just bought it, have not had much time to read it yet, however I have bought a number of other products from DPS. Including Transending Travel, Photo Nuts and Shots and The Art of Self Portraits. They have been great. Normally about $20 - $30 isnt bad considering a normal photograpghy magazine is about $15. And because they are costed in US dollars, we here in Australia can reap the benefits of our Awesome Aussie Dollar, Kicking butt at over US$1.05 Yeah!

I say buy it, read it, if your not happy they have a 30 return policy on it.

Yup........I remember when the U.S. dollar was king of the hill. Now it isn't worth the ink and paper it's printed upon. Oh well..............
