April events to put on your calendar!


Happenings this month


Not just a portfolio

We all know that designers are on Instagram, so we need to be on there too. But are you using your IG account as another portfolio, or are you really leveraging it to connect with new clients?

 

Join me as I welcome Kristina Rust to our April webinar, where she'll discuss how to infuse your personal brand into your social media marketing in order to connect with your ideal client.  She will provide content ideas as well as best practices to help you attract and grow your network. In other words, you will walk away with actionable things that you can do IMMEDIATELY!


Kristina is a branding photographer and social media marketing strategist who loves working with fellow business owners to create images that tell their story and attract their ideal client. Kristina combines her love of photography and marketing to also provide social media marketing services, including social media management and coaching.


She'll lead a webinar chat as we learn about specific things that we can implement TODAY to start making Instagram our best marketing tool.


Join us at 12 noon pacific on April 12th to watch live and ask questions!

Let's get walkin'

These days, it feels harder and harder to stand out from the crowd. Unless you live in a very small town, you probably have a very long list of photographers in your area that are also vying for designers' attention. What's the secret to standing out and making real connections with potential clients??


In our latest Field Note, contributor Mary Pat Collins shares an old school strategy that is brought to our modern age. It's one that's worked for her, so she's breaking it down for you step-by-step so that you can give it a go, too!
