In this episode, headshot photographer Laura Pearman talks about her innovative approach to marketing: how she ‘handpicks’ her clients and gets them queuing up to work with her – and how you can apply her ideas to your own business.
Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
- How Laura Pearman targets the people she really wants to work with to grow her headshot photography business
- How having a clear niche can help your marketing strategy
- Why showing what you can do (rather than telling) can help you attract clients
- Advice on drawing up an avatar for your ideal customer – and when to be flexible
- Tips on building – and maintaining – a strong relationship with your clients (include gifting)
- Examples of how Laura follows up with her customers – and how she uses automation
