In today's episode of the podcast, I chat with family, wedding, and headshot photographer Rachael Boer, who shares how to turn your photography passion into a thriving business starts with networking, managing fear, and delivering an exceptional client experience. The Big Ideas - Cultivate Passion into Profit: Your enthusiasm for photography can attract clients; let your passion shine through.
- Embrace the Butterflies: Feeling nervous signals you care about your work; use it to fuel your drive for excellence.
- Client Experience is King: Provide memorable services that go beyond the photo, making your business unforgettable.
- Marketing is a Relationship Game: Build genuine connections and watch your client base grow organically.
Action Plan: - Build Your Portfolio: Arrange free photo sessions with friends and family to showcase your skills across a variety of subjects and settings.
- Develop Networking Skills: Attend local networking events, such as those hosted by the Chamber of Commerce, to connect with potential clients and other professionals.
- Overcome On-site Challenges: Practice shooting in unfamiliar environments, such as friends' homes, to become adaptable to varied lighting and space conditions.
- Market Your Services Creatively: Start gathering business cards at events and add new contacts to your mailing list for ongoing communication about your services and special offers.
- Invest in Self-Education: Dedicate time each week to reading books or online resources that cover both the technical aspects of photography and business operations, including marketing and sales.
