$150k commercial budget build
Are there any brands still paying upwards of $150,000 for commercial shoots in 2025? The answer is yes, but there are three important things you need to do win their business. I’ll talk you through them in this blog.
Get your team right. Big brands won’t spend their big budgets on just you and your buddies. You need a professional crew, and simple way to manage and pay them.
Get your money right. You can’t cross your fingers on a $150,000 commercial shoot, and hope everything works out. You need to put every dollar to work to deliver the results your clients expects.
Present your plan clearly to the client. They won’t hire you for a job this big based on vibes. You need to show them a clear plan for where every dollar is going.
If you want to see all the line items that go into a $150,000 commercial budget, I’m doing a free live stream on October 29th at 12pm PT.
I’m doing it with Jens Jacob, who is a dope producer, he’s in the Producers Guild, and he’s the founder of Saturation, which is the software I use for all my budgets, contacts, and quotes for clients.
We’ve done these live streams a couple times before and they’re always super valuable for people. If this doesn’t sound totally boring to you, and if it actually sounds kind of interesting, go sign up for it right here.
