Not Everyone Needs a 10K Sale

Freedom Focus Photography ·

2023/06/27

198 - Have you ever cruised through the Hair of the Dog community on your Circle app and thought, "How are all these *&^%!es getting $10K sales and I'm not"? First things first, it is great to have a goal to hit a $10,000 sale but let's settle one thing right now: It's also OK to not have them consistently. Or even to have had one at all! I get it. It sounds blasphemous when I know other educators promise to get you to a $10K, $20K or ‘insert large K number here’

Heather, Jessica Wasik and another photographer were driving to our next location when … Holy sh*t. There's a snake on the car. On the windshield. Staring Heather down like he wanted to come through that glass and

189 - It's time for a reality check.Yes, you can do it all but do you have to?No! Guys, my life changed the day I figured out all the things in my business that I didn't want to do. Could I do them? Yes. Were they filling me with joy and satisfaction? No. Were they letting me spend time with my family and take all the trips I love to take? Oh hell to the no. Sara Monika, a documentary wedding photographer and photography educator in Ontario, Canada, figured it out too. She realized she

When you think to yourself "I am not good enough" or "I'll never be as good as Blabla," you are hearing imposter syndrome take over in your brain. And let me tell you, I do it too. I have left sessions wishing I had planned better, realizing I missed that shot or thinking I screwed the whole thing up. My good friend Shelley Paulson does it too – and she's been in the business for almost 20 years! Shelley, one

Turning Dread to Motivation with Heather Lahtinen

2023/03/28

185 - Do you know what Occam's razor is? Basically, it's the principle that the simplest explanation is most likely the right one. When we get wrapped up in fear and dread -- some of us get paralyzed into inaction -- the best solution may be the easiest one. Take our friend Heather Lahtinen, for example. She looked at her YouTube channel, realized she needed to update a bunch of videos and got struck by an intense feeling of dread. It would be a time-consuming task, especially with an

Some days, I feel like my to-do list looks like Santa's list in those kids' Christmas movies. Yours probably feels pretty similar. That feeling like I never have enough time?

182 - I know it's nice to think you can just put up a website, post a few times on Instagram and get found by tons of clients. I sure wish it was that easy. It isn't. You have to actively market your pet photography business to get found. One of the best ways to do that, according to Zoe Hiljemark, is local PR. Public relations. AKA earned media.
