Hello everyone,
What makes an effective ad placement?
Attached are Jessica Simpson’s two latest advertisements. On the left (I Fancy You – her latest fragrance) and on the right her new diamond collection at Zales.
Do these ads make you want to purchase the product? Why or why not. I’m looking forward to hearing your opinions.

Hello everyone,
The January 2012 issue of Professional Photographer is packed with a lot of products for photographer’s on the go.
Fashion photographer Brian Hedenberg created this product for photographers who don’t have a studio or who want to use one while at an outdoor location.
Worried about traveling with the Expandable Photo Studio (EPS)? It actually fits inside a suitcase and expands in the matter of minutes! There are several styles and five sizes depending on your needs.
For more information on the EPS visit Massiera Industries.

6 Tips to Sell Your Photography
1)Determine Your Goals (short and long term)
Post them somewhere you will always see it.
Think big, but start small.
2) Sell Yourself
If you can sell yourself, you can sell anything.
3) Build Your Brand
Utilize social networking – Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn etc. to help build trust.
4) Update Your Website/ Start a Blog
Make it easy to navigate, interesting, with a variety of content.
The blog component makes your site more interactive.
5) Customer Commitment/ Relationships
It takes 5 times the effort to acquire new clients then to repeat a sale to an existing customer. It’s vital to make sure you respond to a client’s needs/wants.
6) Marketing
It’s important to think of your product as an extension of yourself. (Facebook, Twitter, Your Tube, Blog, Flickr, Business Cards).
Making a newsletter helps to build credibility, brand, and professionalism. (icontact.com)(constantcontact.com)
I hope you found these tips helpful (which can be found in the 2012 edition of Photographer’s Market) in expanding your business and growing your brand.

Strategies for Generating Business Referrals
By: Peleg Top
When people see your marketing they react, remember, and recommend.
1) Serving your clients well and doing exceptional work is the foundation for cultivating good referrals.
2) Ask your clients to recommend your services to their friends and family. Use the “ask” as an offer to be a resource for helping your client help somebody else.
3) Thank clients for their business and use this as an opportunity to open the door for referrals (send business cards).
4) Inform. Make it a point to contact the people who recommend you on an ongoing basis and inform them of the progress of your work.
I hope you found these tips helpful!
