This is my phrase of the week.
Credit for it comes from a photographer I work with, who was grumbling about marketing.
“I hate marketing.” he said.
“I just want to make great images.”
(Which he does, a lot.)
As I pointed out to him, if you’re a photographer, your number one marketing tool IS inspirational personal work.
All you have to do is make it (lots of it) and share it (relentlessly).
Sharing inspirational mind bombs is a way to reframe what you do when you’re marketing.
What half decent photographer doesn’t want to do that?
I’ll leave that with you for the weekend.
