You are listening to Danny, on WHAT : DE HEK podcast. This is the place where I share my experience, knowledge and skills.

Danny de Hek 0:16
Yeah, so welcome along. Helen Oakes and I’m Danny de Hek. If youre interested. Now this is Helen’s first podcast of her own, we’re going to set up Helen. Helen is actually a photographer. She’s also my partner. And since COVID we’ve been looking for, to market ourselves in different wonderful ways. So as you can imagine... a photographer is having a great time at the moment because we can’t get out in public so much. So why don’t you first tell me how you actually first got involved in photography, and why you love doing photography.
Helen Oakes 0:52
Okay, I first got involved probably in my 20s, I would say, even a, well actually even a little bit in my teens, I quite liked photography and I had a tiny little camera, it was like a little flipout camera an Instamax camera. And I got that as a birthday present one time, and I thought that was the bees knees and I went around taking photos. It’s the sort of camera that you put these flashes, big long...um there’s about 12 flashes that you stick on the top of it.

Danny de Hek 1:20
Oh yeah, they look like the blue bottles on the beach.

Helen Oakes 1:24
Yeah, so you put those on the top of the camera, and you take photos. And it was really cool. I thought it was really fun, really cool. And then as I got older, I used to watch my brother taking photos and he had a SLR, which was a Pentax camera and I thought Wow, that looks really cool, professional looking camera. So then I decided I’d get myself a camera. So I got myself a Sigma camera, no, Minolta camera with a Sigma lens on it. And it had all the manual dials on it. And I was like, Oh, this looks a bit tricky, but I’ll have a go. And I used to always put it on one setting and I thought if I put it on this setting I’m bound to get good photos. So I’d always put it on one setting. And then I gradually started playing around a bit more with it and started learning more. And then I used to look at my brother’s photos and go, Wow, they’re really amazing. I want to get further in the photography field. Yeah.

Danny de Hek 2:16
So what type of photography would you say is your genre, as the say?

Helen Oakes 2:20
My genre would be people photography. I love taking photos of people. I love taking photos of sports people.

Danny de Hek 2:27
Right, have you done any events that come to mind that you’re really proud of?

Helen Oakes 2:30
Yeah, yeah, I love doing gymnastic events like National Gymnastic competitions, right. And I love doing just portraits of people, for workshoots and also for sport shoots.

Think Tank Topic: Business Ethics - Experiences, Problems and Solutions

ELITE : SIX Think Tank meetings are discussed over Zoom with our members every Friday at 9:30am.
Facilitated by DANNY : DE HEK meetings are recorded for our Podcast, we’ve been doing this since COVID-19 if you’re interested in joining in with us check out our website at dehek.com
EXPERIENCES

Refunding clients that overpay
Act honourably
Successful businesses who are acting ethically will always enhance their reputation
Reputation can be damaged
Your ethics should relate to the culture of your business
When clients advise that they no longer wish to be a client , any subsequent subscription payments should be refunded. If alternatively the member continues to pay and does not advise that they no longer want to be a member any refund should only cover from date of that advice.
Ethics in business is related to your own ethics. Conduct yourself as you feel is correct.
The values we apply to functioning within our business.

PROBLEMS

Admin takes time
May not get repeat clients if you aren’t ethical
Are ethics related to the emotional center and conduct of your business or related to the systems your customers experience?
Terms and conditions need to be clear
Some companies don’t have T&C’s, can backfire
Ethics are in the eye of the beholder – what’s ethical to somebody may well be not be to another.

SOLUTIONS

Have an admin fee if people overpay
Make phone call to clients not emails as emails get overlooked
Have a contract for a certain timeframe
Have clear Terms and Conditions, including around termination and refunds.
Pause before you react to situations to ensure your reaction matches your ethics.

TAKES AWAY

Ethical decisions can be difficult to resolve – a good guide is to treat others as we’d like to be treated.
Give the money back
Hearing people views
After all, time will help heal your heart
