Is shooting custom really worth it?

Just been doing some calculations on the value of shooting custom work.

I reckon we can shoot 5 sets and videos, solo girl in a day. If it's boy/girl or girl/girl we can do three sets/videos.

All this to a standard we are happy with.

Solo girl set/video will sell for $10, 50 times = $500 x 5 = $2,500

Two girl set/video will sell for $15, 50 times = $750 x 5 = $2,250

Boy/Girl set/video will sell at $20, 50 times = $1,000 x 5 = $3,000

These are riduculously low prices, but high number of sales. We still own the rights and can continue to sell it till hell freezes over.

Plus we can shoot one of the sets as a magazine set and they are worth a few $$

The girl does not turn up or perform we can kick her out. We are not beholding to anyone else.

I started to think about this because I had some clown on ICQ thinking we should shoot custom for twice the models fee. She wants $300 I do a day for $600

Plus the fact with one of our shooters out ill Eva and I are having to do a lot more photography.

Thanks for listening just thinking aloud.
