Back for the third time by popular demand, here are some of the best resources from around the web that I’ve seen in the past few months. Three blog posts and two ebooks that everyone should read, not to mention a birthday celebration event at the end! Enjoy!
1. Photographers Web Marketing E-Book – William Bay put together this awesome guide about how to market your business using the web. He shares how to put together a website, how to use social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter, and other super-important web marketing strategies (like email marketing, which is where the money is really at when done correctly) that make this a great place to start if you’re not sure if you’re really using the web well or not. Use coupon code TMT to get $5 off before October 21st.
2. It’s not sexy, but you need it. – Brand Camp Blog hits another one out of the park with this awesome tip for getting you more customers that’s shockingly simple.
3. How to deal with criticism – Brooke Snow tackles this straight on. Read it.
4. How to Photograph Your Friends (and Why it’s Super Important) – Photography Concentrate speaks to the elephant in the room about how to work with friends who you once shot for free but now you’re a professional. It’s not about pricing so much as how to enjoy the process and embrace working with friends.
5. Click: How to take Gorgeous Photos of your Kids – While this book is written for people who are either photography enthusiasts or newer pros, I thought it was an incredible resource anyways and picked up a number of good tips about how to get good photos of kids (both mine and other peoples’ kids).
It’s shockingly inexpensive for all its content, only $19.99 right now increasing to $29.99 on the 19th. Your purchase before the 19th also enters you to win a $1000 dslr camera, so that’s pretty sweet too! Totally worth checking out.
Happy Birthday to me = Awesome sale for you!
Today I turn 30 years old. Scary to move into a new decade!
In celebration, I’m offering a crazy 50% off sale on all my products, good until midnight tonight (October 14th) MST. The discount will be applied automatically in your shopping cart.
