Welcome to the TENnetwork from Illuminatus

A warm welcome to the first post on this the TENnetwork blog!

So, let me begin by telling you a little about the TENnetwork concept just to get those juices flowing...

• Elite groups of only 10 photographers arranged geographically with the purpose of advancing skills via practical exercises and business initiatives.

• A very special “Introductory” offer of £1,200.00 plus VAT per annum!

• Each photographer to make a commitment of only £100.00 plus VAT per calendar month by direct debit for a minimum contracted period of 12 months.

• This cost equates to nothing more than selling only one or two extra prints per week or a small portrait session each month.

• Each group to meet as their group 3 times each year with an additional meeting of the “TENnetwork”.

• The only additional costs to each member would be food & accommodation at each of the meetings.

• In the UK the plan is to form a maximum of 4 groups. North, South, Central & “Tasveer” (a dedicated Asian photographers group). In addition another group to be formed in the Republic of Ireland.

• Quarterly “TENnetwork” Awards with sponsored prizes for the regional and national winners.

• An annual award with a top prize of a Nikon professional camera dependent upon the number of groups participating.

• Each member may enter up to 10 entries per quarter with no entry fee. The images to be scored on the ‘100’ point system.

• Discounts on equipment and software negotiated with trade sponsors.

• Quarterly (or more frequent) dedicated HTML newsletter.

• Dedicated “Mentoring Programme” for members only using ‘Go To Meeting’ or similar web access.

• Corporate “10” clothing and accessories available to members.

And in the next post we will tell you what we want you to achieve photographically...
