What is Your Best Marketing Tip for a Photographer?
I understand this is a very broad question and could go many directions below we have gotten some great feed back. I would like to add my two cents after all right now we need to stay motivated.
#1 Hand out a 100 business cards a weak this is a small attainable goal.
#2 Create a flier and hit up every bulletin board in a in town and towns close to you, coffee shops are great.
#4 Get a body of work together and exhibit in coffee shop and restaurants
#5 If there is some sort of theater for kids in town like ballet, plays, ext shoot the events and offer cd’s and canvas prints. display the prints in the auditorium where the parents will see them as they come in.
#6 We did this one and it has resulted in tons of work, Photograph and donate ten large prints of the kids practicing in a ballet studio to the studio. Ask to have a small area to explain your service in the form of a flier, poster, table top tent or print out.
#7 Wedding photographers should do bridal shows.
#8 pay per click on google to your local area.
If you have some other ideas please add them in the comments area
I will be updating this list
