Everything included:
What operators are saying
“Was charging $600 for weddings. Average in my area is $1,050. Felt sick, then fixed it.”
— Marcus D., Atlanta, GA
“Showed my partner the regional data. We raised our base by $300 the same week.”
— Ryan O., Melbourne, AU
“Corporate gigs in my area pay 2x what weddings do. Completely shifted my marketing.”
— Jenny K., Boston, MA
Ryan and Lisa Park — Melbourne, AUS
The problem
Ryan and Lisa had been charging AUD $750 for wedding photobooths for 3 years. They had no idea what other operators in Melbourne charged. “We set our price when we started and never looked at it again,” Ryan admits.
What they did
After downloading the market report, they discovered the average wedding photobooth rate in Melbourne was AUD $1,200 — and the top 10% charged AUD $1,800+. They raised their base rate by $400 the same week.
The result
They went from AUD $750 to AUD $1,150 per wedding. Over the next quarter, they booked 14 weddings at the new rate. That's $5,600 in additional revenue they would have left on the table.
“We were literally charging $450 less than the market average. Seeing the data made the decision easy.”
— Ryan and Lisa Park, Melbourne AUS

— Marcus D.
“The corporate vs wedding breakdown changed how I market entirely.”

“Wish I had this when I was starting out. Would've saved me years of undercharging.”
— Omar F.

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started Booth Brief because we kept seeing the same questions in Facebook groups — and the answers were usually vague, outdated, or from someone trying to sell a course.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.
