In this week's episode, we delve into the common misconception that average sales value is the ultimate measure of success for a sustainable business.

In this episode, the team delves into the concept of never relying on a single approach, particularly when it comes to marketing strategies. Brad and Jeanine share their experiences navigating the ever-evolving landscape of client acquisition and how they have adapted their marketing over time.   Brad reveals the majority of his new business (a staggering 90%) is generated through Facebook ads. While this strategy has proven highly effective, he acknowledges the potential risks of becoming overly dependent on a single platform.   It’s important to maintain a diverse portfolio of marketing channels in case the tides turn. The key is to avoid the temptation of putting all your eggs in one basket, lest you find yourself vulnerable to the unpredictable nature of the market.   Join the Difference Maker Revolution and take the first step towards creating a difference!

In this episode, we’re still talking about the five mega trends affecting the photographic industry. We continue on the second mega trend - the self-centric photography industry, where photographers often believe that their clients value their unique style and art rather than the emotional connection and meaning they derive from the photographs.   We also explore our third mega trend, "dual worlds". With the rise of social media people are living in both the physical and digital realms, and this has a huge impact on individuals' perceptions of the photography industry. This is closely linked to our fourth mega trend, the impact of AI on photography. Will AI surpass human capabilities? How can photographers focus on the human element?   Our final mega trend is the consumer availability of products, where the once exclusive products offered by photographers are now readily available to the general public. The team discusses each of these trends and their impact on the past, present, and future of the photography industry.   Join the Difference Maker Revolution and take the first step towards creating a difference!

By using the measurable results and insights which paid ads offer you can learn where it is most valuable to focus your energy.   Join the Difference Maker Revolution and take the first step towards creating a difference!

Maintaining a positive mindset is crucial for photographers, as it can significantly impact their business success. Focusing on solutions rather than dwelling on problems can often manifest the very solutions you’re searching for.

Do you know the difference between a Studio Manager and a Studio Coordinator? Both are crucial for keeping studios running smoothly, but knowing which one your studio needs can be even more important for your hiring process.   Coordinators handle scheduling, client communication, and logistics, allowing photographers to focus on their creative work. They create an organised environment where photographers can do their best.   Managers oversee the studio's overall operations. They take care of budgeting, resource allocation, and team management, ensuring everything runs smoothly. Their role is essential in making sure everyone has what they need to work effectively and harmoniously.   But remember, bringing in business isn't just up to the coordinators and managers; it's a team effort. Photographers, assistants, and administrative staff all play important roles in attracting and keeping clients. By producing great work, offering excellent customer service, and using their networks, everyone helps the studio succeed. This teamwork is key to maintaining a steady flow of business.
