Sneak peek
From Chapter 3: “The Three Pricing Structures That Work”
Most booth operators price like this: “3 hours, unlimited prints, digital copies — $800.”
That's not a pricing structure. That's a single option. And when you give someone a single option, the only question they can ask is “is this worth $800?”
Here's what happens when you offer three tiers instead:
Tier 1: “The Classic” — $800
2 hours, standard prints, digital gallery
Tier 2: “The Experience” — $1,200
3 hours, premium prints, animated photos, custom backdrop, digital gallery with branding
Tier 3: “The VIP” — $1,800
4 hours, everything in Tier 2 + dedicated attendant, social media sharing station, same-day highlights reel
Now the client isn't asking “is this worth it?” They're asking “which one do I want?” And 60-70% of the time, they pick the middle tier — which is 50% more than your old flat rate.
This is called the “Goldilocks Effect,” and it works because...
Everything included:
The math
Let's say you do 8 events per month at $800.
That's $76,800/year.
After reading the Playbook, you raise your average to $1,100 (conservative — most operators report higher).
That's $105,600/year.

What operators are saying
“I raised my base rate from $750 to $1,100 the week I read this. Haven't lost a single booking.”
— Tyler R., Nashville, TN
“The tiered pricing structure is now my default for every quote. Average booking went from $800 to $1,050 in two months.”
— Kevin T., Sacramento, CA
“I was so nervous to raise my rate. The scripts in Chapter 4 gave me the exact words. Booked a $1,400 wedding the next day.”
— Amanda C., Charlotte, NC
Sarah Chen — Portland, OR
The problem
Sarah was charging $650 per event. She'd been at that rate for 2 years because every time she thought about raising prices, she'd panic and talk herself out of it. “I was convinced I'd lose all my bookings overnight,” she says.
What she did
After reading the Playbook, she restructured her pricing into 3 tiers: $800, $1,100, and $1,500. She used the word-for-word scripts from Chapter 4 to present the new rates to her next inquiry.
The result
Within 6 weeks, Sarah's average booking jumped from $650 to $1,150. She didn't lose a single client. Her calendar is now booked 3 months out — and she works fewer events because each one pays more.
“I literally read Chapter 4 on a Tuesday and used the scripts on Wednesday. The client didn't even hesitate.”
— Sarah Chen, Portland OR

Common questions
Is this actually free?
100% free. No credit card, no trial, no upsell inside the PDF. We made this because we think booth operators deserve better resources.
I already charge premium rates. Is this still useful?
Yes — most of our best feedback comes from experienced operators. The scripts and frameworks help you validate and refine your pricing.
How long is it?
47 pages. Most operators read it in one sitting (about 30 minutes), but the pricing templates and scripts are things you'll reference before every quote.
Who's behind Booth Brief?
We're a small team of people who've spent years in and around the photobooth industry. We started Booth Brief because we kept seeing the same questions in Facebook groups — and the answers were usually vague, outdated, or from someone trying to sell a course.
So we made the resources we wished existed when we were starting out. Everything is free because we believe good information shouldn't cost $497.
— Tiffany & the Booth Brief team
