Go through a long and expensive hiring process to find someone local and get into long contracts. Invest heavily into upgrading your studio gear which costs on average $10,000 alone. After new hires start the turnover is usually high because of the large demand of requests from the rest of your staff. As a result of having to keep up everything creative in your organization, the weekly grind of putting out communication pieces usually gets rushed. The flip side is leaders don't care about quality and they just use their phones or budget cameras and scare away their guests. We work with videographer teams of 6-7 full time hires so they can focus on larger projects and we work with teams that have never held a camera. No matter where you are in the spectrum of size, outsourcing is the most financially responsible decision you can make.
