SAVE YOUR SPOT!
MY FAVORITE WORKFLOW SECRETS
A smooth workflow is essential to a profitable photography business. It took me a long time, and a lot of trial and error to figure mine out. I want to share it with you.
TIPS TO GROW AN ENGAGED FACEBOOK GROUP
Inviting a bunch of people to your group is great. But if nobody is talking or interacting in your group, it's going to feel like a 8th grade dance in there. Let me show you how to get your audience engaged and creating interest in your group.
MESSENGER MARKETING FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS
Day 3 is all about using Messenger to reach your leads. Automate this process and put a personal touch on your business' marketing strategy.
INSTAGRAM MARKETING TO BOOST YOUR BUSINESS
We're talking about Instagram marketing on Day 4 of the mini workshop. Let's create posts and a layout that will boost your studios visibility and engagement.
About Your Mentor/Coach:
In the early 90s, I was finishing college and I got an internship at George Lucas's Industrial Light Magic, where I worked with many of the art directors and filmmakers working on movies like Jurassic Park.
From there, I was so inspired I decided I was going to become a filmmaker, too. So while I had a day job at an ad agency, I started teaching myself film editing and animation at night. Then I got a job in L.A. working for eNews for a year. After that, I went to another production company where I was editing and designing visual effects and I started needing to direct backgrounds for my work.
So I decided to start shooting short films, commercials, music videos. Now I've been a filmmaker for over 20 years and in this world there's a lot of ebb and flow. Many times you're pitching projects and not actually filming or producing. So I started my portrait studio in twenty seventeen.
After struggling for years trying to generate leads to book paying clients, I hit on a very simple recipe I’ve been affectionately calling, “The Secret Sauce.” It was a combination of using my 20 year background in advertising and marketing, along with my newfound skill and passion as a portrait photographer. BOOM. I’ve taken my studio from struggling to shooting 4-6 sessions per week and I can help you do it, too! I am glad you’re here and want to share the secrets to my success.
Here's how my course has helped other photographers with their business :
"I am booked solid with consultations all April and May. We are currently on a stay at home order again ! So I am going to have to figure out zoom . I have not stopped since I started the secrete sauce since October . I have ladies buying packages before even seeing images and I said you haven’t even seen you images “ they reply are you not a professional portrait photographer. Enough said"
-Donna Hamelin Anger
"Most of my business over the last year has been from this campaign and so many women have referred their friends too! I’m in the last stretch!"
-Darina Neyret
"It helped me beyond I could ever envision with my 40/40 project!!! I can’t believe I had to turned off my ad in order to catch up with all the leads!! My ad was active for 40 days, I received 92 leads, booked 30 session so far, I have around 35 leads in the waitlist. I have 3 photoshoots per week on average until the end of June. This is truly a dream come true for me!"
-Hande Gurdogen
"Secret Sauce helped tremendously with the leads! For the first time (ever!!) Im booked solid for April! And I do 3-4 shoots a week. I'd book them for May and further but I don't want to lose their enthusiasm. Besides the quantity of leads, the quality of the leads amazes me! I meet seriously the most amazing women!! Successful, beautiful, and just a pleasure to work with. Yes, they also refer their friends. And they also talk about future sessions with their family etc. So there is lots of potential for the future as well.
So far my average has been quite good too - $3300. Honestly, this campaign and the secret sauce is the best thing that happened to me in the last 5 years of my work! Thank you
Dina Mande! You told me I'd do great and you were right!"
-Iryna Sosnovska
"My word! I went from scrounging for clients to having a waterfall. Twice a week through September, just hired an assistant so I can maybe shoot more (or at least keep up!), and have had media coverage that has kept my phone ringing for the past two days. My prices, already vastly more than anyone in the area, will be going up again. It has been crazy!
My average is 2200, but when my prices go up, the structure will change a bit which should help my sales average tremendously."
-Lynn Palmer Crane
"I went from only a few bookings on calendar and scrounging for leads, to more leads than I could handle (had to turn ad off to catch up) and so far 5 paid clients on calendar with more calls to make. The even better part is I now know and understand Facebook ads better and can repeat campaigns as often as I want. Dina and her team have been a God send to me!"
-Nellie Quiros
"I ran an ad for a total of less than two weeks, I have about 40 leads! I booked 14 sessions and I've photographed about half of them. All of my clients have spent at least $3000, I had a session on Tuesday that spent over $5500 and another one at $4000. It's keeping my calendar and my bank account full!"
-Sue Halliburton
