  • Is investing in a marketing agency worth it?  Does the cost feel like a significant investment?
    Well, fear not because a marketing agency can be a game-changer for your photography business.

    In today’s episode, I’m breaking down what to expect to pay for a marketing agency, some budget maximizers to get the most out of your investment, and of course, an action plan for you to get started figuring out if a marketing agency is right for you.

    If you choose to go without a marketing agency right now because it doesn’t feel like the right time, then screenshot this episode and put it in your Evernote to come back to later. However, if you feel like you might be ready and go without because of the investment, you risk missing out on invaluable opportunities to reach your target audience effectively.  You’ll spend more time and money “figuring it out” in the long run because a marketing agency knows the latest trends, channels, and techniques to ensure your message resonates with potential clients. That translates to money sooner than you can “figure it out”.

    So, if you're ready to discover what you need to know about how much marketing agencies, this podcast is for you!

  • Do you find yourself struggling to get consistent bookings for your photography business? No matter how much effort you put into your marketing, you can't get enough clients to sustain your business.

    You need to treat your boutique photography business like a big business. Treating your small photography business like the big box stores will give you the perspective and action plan to attract and retain clients.

    A big-box or CEO mindset is crucial for your business because it helps create a consistent flow of clients and bookings. Without it, you'll struggle to find clients and grow your business.
    Once you understand that your business is bigger than finding your next client, you can live into a vision and not just live for today.

    In this episode, I help you see the big picture of your business, take actionable steps, and start getting consistent bookings for your photography business. I’ll discuss the 5 elements you need to address and how to apply them so that you can have consistent bookings of dreamy clients.
    If you continue to try everything without taking consistent strategic actions, you can expect to keep struggling with getting bookings and growing your business.

    So, don't miss out on this opportunity to flip the switch on your business and start getting consistent bookings for your photography business. Listen to this episode and take the first step toward growing your business.
