THE CUSTOMER IS THE HERO, NOT YOUR BRAND. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This is the first lesson in @donaldmiller's Building A StoryBrand and it changed the way I thought about my brand messaging. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I had this aha moment where I realized, it's not the photos that customers care about, it's how I can help them achieve these photos that's important. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My client experience is about: ✨ Making you feel comfortable in front of the camera even if you’re nervous. ✨ Giving you directions and prompts so you never feel unsure or awkward posing. ✨ Keeping it fun and candid, not stiff and formal ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These are the details that I care about and it's what you can expect from every one of my sessions! #nycphotographer

Do you plan out your social content? I just started last week and can already see the difference. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I've always had trouble bringing my feed together - my content is a mix of families, couples, brands and I didn't know how to share all of that in a cohesive way. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So, the first thing I did was hire @editedbyartists to go through my galleries and curate my feed. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Some things I've learned: 1️⃣ The first 9 posts in your feed are the most important. 2️⃣ Pick your 9 photo breakdown: Mine is going to be 3 Lifestyle, 3 Weddings, 2 Personal and 1 Family. 3️⃣ Write your captions on the day of so your content is relevant. 4️⃣ Clients should be able to see your style and offerings at first glance. They need to be sure of what they’re investing in! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Helpful resources: - @planoly I'm using the free version that let's you post 30 images per month - @editedbyartists to curate your feed. 30 days of images for $50. $10 off your first order using YUMI. - @honeysocialco for stock images ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Leave any other helpful planning tips in the comments!
