LIVE: The $50K Yes Method Workshop
Live with Patrick Moreau | May 19-21, 2026 | 11:00 AM PST / 2:00 PM EST Daily
Mo was charging $5,000 per film. Same clients. Same quality. Same industry. After we rebuilt one yes in his business — just one — his next contract was $96,500.
That wasn't luck. That was a system.
After 200+ Growth Audits with independent filmmakers and production companies, I know exactly which yes was broken — and I know which version of that same break is costing you the contracts you should already be closing.
Three days. One hour each. 200+ audits behind every framework.
One answer: exactly which of the five yeses is costing you premium work right now.
Here's What 200+ Audits Exposed
The Page yes averages 2.6 out of 7.
Not one filmmaker scored above a 3. Every single one describes what they do — "I make brand videos," "I shoot documentaries," "I do corporate work" — instead of who they serve and what transformation they deliver.
The Reply and Call yeses average 2.2 out of 7.
The money conversation fills them with dread. They write polite replies that anchor to day rates. They get on calls and let the client drive. They send the proposal and wait, hoping the client doesn't push back. When the client pushes back, they fold.
Your craft scores the highest — 3.4 on average.
You're genuinely good at what you do. But you can't film your way out of a broken client journey.
Across 200+ audits, the same five yeses are broken in the same order. I call this The $50K Yes Method — five engineered moments between a stranger landing on your page and a signed premium proposal. Page. Reply. Call. Proposal. Lead. When all five work together, they compound.
Most filmmakers have none of them built.
Maybe one.
That's why they plateau.
The Three Sessions — With the Fixes
Day 1 — Your Page: The First Yes
I see it in nearly every audit. "I'm a filmmaker. Here are my films. Contact me." That's not a page — that's a digital business card.
One filmmaker in these audits shot what a major brand called their most viewed film ever — then buried it in an IMDb-style credits page. Page yes score: 2 out of 7. Craft score: 6 out of 7.
Elite work behind a completely invisible front door.
I'll walk through the five elements that make a page a yes — your ICP, the XYZ headline formula, your unique mechanism, curated samples that signal outcomes, and a founder story that answers the question your client is silently asking: "why you?"
Day 2 — The Reply, The Call, and The Proposal
Most filmmakers talk about the video. The resolution. The color grade. The mood. But the person approving the budget doesn't care about any of that — they care about the size of the problem you solve.
One filmmaker in these audits works with Ducati. Invoices €2,000 per project. The gap between that brand name and that invoice is the entire sales conversation, visible in one number.
Day 2 covers Yes #2, #3, and #4 in one session. The reply email that decides whether the conversation goes premium or commodity. The sales call — using the QUEST framework — that turns "what's your day rate?" into "when can you start?" And the proposal that gets signed at premium pricing instead of shopped line-by-line like a pizza menu.
Day 3 — Lead Gen and Founder-Market Fit
Most filmmakers think they have a leads problem. They don't. They have a leaks problem.
One filmmaker in these audits does $200K–$500K in revenue at $2,000 per project. That's potentially 250 projects a year. The business works — it just works at the wrong price point, because every lead is leaking out the first four yeses before it reaches a premium price tag.
I'll walk through the five real lead-gen channels — VSL funnels and ads, social and lead magnets, podcast and speaking, cold email, and referrals — and how to find your founder-market fit. The one channel that fits you as a founder, not someone else's playbook.
What You're Getting
- A Personal Growth Audit From My Team — after you register, you'll get an email with a short survey to share your website, your films, and a recent pitch. My team then personally reviews everything and sends you a detailed written breakdown across all five yeses — Page, Reply, Call, Proposal, and Lead. You walk into Day 1 already knowing exactly which yes is costing you the most. ($497 value)
- Three Days Live With Patrick Moreau — three hours of action-packed teaching from a 5x Emmy winner who has trained 10,000+ filmmakers and led workshops for teams at the UN, Apple, and Nike. Corporate clients invest five figures for a single day with Patrick. You're getting three. ($497 value)
- The 5 Yeses Scorecard — the diagnostic I use to score every filmmaker business across the five yeses. Score yourself, find the weakest link, and know exactly what to fix first to stop competing on price. ($97 value)
- Word-for-Word Sales Scripts — the exact QUEST framework questions and reply email templates I use to surface the much more expensive problem your client is really trying to solve. Use them on your very next call and your very next inquiry. ($87 value)
- The Proposal Rubric — the scoring system I use to evaluate any proposal against the only metrics that matter: vision, ownable process, outcome-tied investment, and ease of buy-in. Apply it to your last three proposals and instantly see why some closed and some ghosted. ($47 value)
Total value: $1,225+ Your investment: $247
This Isn't a Webinar
This isn't 45 minutes of "let me tell you about my journey" followed by an upsell slide. There is no bait-and-switch. This is a diagnostic workshop built on the largest dataset of filmmaker business audits that exists.
And this isn't "just raise your prices." The audits show that pricing is almost never the primary bottleneck — fixing price without fixing your page, your reply, or your call first just repels clients faster.
If you show up, watch the sessions, and don't walk away knowing the exact yes that's most broken in your business — email me. Full refund. No questions. I'm that confident in what 200+ audits tells me about your business.

You've been in production for 2+ years and you're technically skilled — but the business hasn't kept pace with the craft

You're somewhere between $50K and $500K in revenue and you feel like you've hit a wall you can't explain

You're just starting out and looking for production basics

You want motivation without methodology
-
You're not willing to change anything about how you position, price, or sell
