Back to School Reboot | Business Q&A

I asked myprivate facebook communitywhat's got them stuck in business and what problems they're mulling through right now and the responses were so wide. Sometimes just talking through a problem and getting new perspective is the push we need to reimagine and tackle it so in this episode, I'm addressing 4 questions from the group with my take. Sometimes my opinions are counter-cultural to industry standard, but I'm giving it to you straight.

We're talking about issues like

  • How to develop a newsletter people want to read
  • Addressing a crisis of style (documentary vs lifestyle, how to get people to book a different style, etc.)
  • How to integrate portfolio building into existing sessions
  • Social media’s role in marketing as a new photographer and how to book and/or grow without it
  • Whether to include pricing on your website or not

... and all kinds of other nuggets along the way.
