(more) As a marketing and PR professional with more than three decades of experience, I have learned that the most important attributes of a professional marketing firm is loads of experience in your specific region (providing exemplary experience with all regional media), along with a thorough understanding of your business's target market and the best ways to engage that targetted customer. Unplanned marketing campaigns use the "shotgun" approach: shoot off a wide load of buckshot (advertisingplacements) and hope you hit the right people. A truly knowledgeable marketing firm will research the best, most cost-effective and trackable ways to reach your target audience and not waste advertising dollars on untargeted "shotgun" marketing techniques that reachs an audience that is way too broad to be able to track real results and create paying customers from lookie-loos. Yes, it is true marketing is an art, but there must be true science and proven statistics in the mix; campaigns MUST be properly focused and trackable to keep a "shotgun" campaign from becoming too costly without data-driven results. I'm an expert at this, contact me if you need advice or strategic planning!

(more) The obscene expense of an office visit ($125 plus $45 for a $12 shot) when all that is needed is a vaccine led me to start giving all my pets (cats, dogs and horses) their shots myself more than three decades ago. Vaccines are available at most feed stores and even human pharmacies, are very affordable and easy to administer. High-quality food and lots of love is all most pets need to stay healthy and happy their whole lives. My biggest issue currently is deciding whether to spay my almost 1-year-old kitten; she's never been outside and does not get loud and obnoxious during her heats, so I really don't see the need. However, the vets I have spoken with have told me it is unhealthy for her to keep her reproductive organs, which is ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS and based on junk "science." If I do decide to have her spayed, I will not go to one of the vets who have ridiculed me for waiting. If my kitty gets sick, I'll spring for a vet visit, but I plan to use the City's rabies clinic for that required vaccine and pay only $20. The rest of the vaccines I will continue to get at the Tractor Supply!

There are several do-it-yourself website platforms available - including Squarespace, Wordpress and Wix - that offer templates well-suited to photography businesses. Make sure there's a direct contact form on EVERY PAGE of your website, include prices whenever possible, and promote your website via free advertising on Craigslist and other online forums. "A website that's not promoted is like a billboard in your basement," an old friend once told me, and it's still true today. Attract potential customers via your web portal, where they can see your gorgeous work. Link your Facebook ads to your website. And collect email addresses from all your clients to produce a monthly newsletter promoting your best work - existing clients will forward this newsletter to all their friends if their photos are included in it, and this will accelerate word-of-mouth promotion. If you sell prints - such as landscapes or fine art photography - put together an e-commerce site that allows website visitors to make purchases online. Also, uploading your stock photos to Getty, Shutterstock, Pond 5 and other stock photo websites can gain exposure for your work and earn a few bucks in the process.
