213: Upselling Without the Ick

from LEVEL UP: A Wedding Photography + Videography Podcast · host Taylor Petrinovich & Kelley Gilster | The Level Up Co.

Let’s talk about making more money without booking more weddings.In this episode, we’re breaking down how upsells can completely shift your income potential without adding more work to your calendar. And no, we’re not talking about sleazy, awkward, salesy tactics that make you feel gross. We’re talking about value-driven offers that feel like a service, not a pitch.This is about knowing your worth, trusting your expertise, and offering solutions that truly serve your clients and yes, getting paid for it.Because here’s the truth: most wedding creatives are leaving money on the table every single time they book a client. Not because they don’t have something valuable to offer—but because they’re afraid to bring it up.In this episode, we’re flipping that mindset on its head. We’re talking about why upselling doesn’t have to feel gross, how to introduce it without pressure, and what it means to sell from a place of confidence and care.You don’t have to take on more work to make more money.You don’t have to say yes to more bookings just to hit your income goals.You don’t have to stay stuck in the cycle of burnout and busyness.You just need to get clear on your value and start offering it. Let’s go. 💪The next round of The Luxury Mastermind will start in Spring 2026! We are thrilled to welcome you inside our signature 8 week program.
