PP42 – 21 Ways to Find the Right Clients with Sarah Petty

In this podcast I interview Sarah Petty from Springfield IL, and we talk about how to make your photography marketing work for you.

Sarah is a super-smart marketer and has been running her photography studio for 18 years now. She has written a very good book on marketing and branding for photographers and she teaches photographers how to attract clients, and how to get paid what you are worth.

Sarah talks about the biggest marketing mistake you can make in your business, how to avoid it. What makes you different from the other photographers, how to blow away the competition, how to build your database of people you have relationships with. Plus, Sarah shares a very good tip on how to get past customers back into your studio for another shoot.

I just love the strategy she mentions where you partner up with other businesses in your area and then do an educational workshop for your target customers. That is very smart.

Make sure you grab Sarah’s “21 Ways to Find the right clients” eBook, I’m sure it will help you in your business.

PP40 – “The Lie of Busy” with Bryan Caporicci

Today my special guest is Bryan Caporicci from “The Sprouting Photographer Podcast”. We will talk about “The Lie of Busy” and how to get your life back into balance when running your photography business.

Are you too busy to enjoy the important things in life?

When we start our photography businesses, we try so hard to get things going that once they do start moving along really well, we tend to get too busy in our businesses and forget to focus on what really matters.

Bryan will talk about why this happens and how some photographers hit an overwhelm state and quit their businesses to get a job.

I fell into this busy trap too, and in this podcast I will share what worked for me and how I changed things around to work half the hours and make the same profit.

Lastly, Bryan will share his 3 steps on how to take control of your photography business and stop living this “busy lie”.
