À propos de cet audio
Everyone’s talking about raising your prices but no one wants to talk about the real problem: you’re giving away your work for free.
In this brutally honest episode of The Loud Lens, host Khandie breaks down the industry’s quiet addiction to unpaid labour. From speaker slots at sold-out photography events to “collaborations” with brands offering a 10% discount instead of a cheque, we’re exposing the hidden economy of creative exploitation.
You’ll learn:
• Why unpaid work isn’t harmless — it’s strategic devaluation
• The psychological traps keeping you saying yes
• The real cost of “exposure” in events, education, and brand deals
• How to professionally say no without burning bridges (you weren’t invited to cross anyway)
• And why cutting off the supply is the only way to create a paid, respected future for creatives
📌 Tag this one: must-listen. Especially if you’ve ever accepted “opportunity” over income.
