Show Prices On Website? Good or Bad?

THE TOUCH

For a photography business website, is it better to show your prices or leave them off the site so they have to call?

Thanks!

Speaking purely as a consumer, I would be far less likely to buy anything if I can't see the price. Only if I really, really, really wanted it would I make an exception.

I would definately show prices. Otherwise visitors may just think its a personal site for showing photos.

But I suppose if your business is something like wedding photography, a "call for pricing" would be acceptable.

Be upfront, make a pricing page for your session fees, daily fees, event fees, prints, etc.

Great! Thank you guys. I was starting to second guess it.

I would show them if you can...as said above 'from a consumers point of view' def.

Showing your prices also serves to prequalify the people who do call you. You waste less time on callers who are not going to really hire you.

That does not work for an outfit that relies on the hard sell to make their money of course. They want anyone and everyone to call in the hopes they can upsell. So it really depends on your business model. You have to pick the right one for you.
