#223: The Epiphany: What I Learned from a Friend that Changed My Approach to Vendors

Do you want more referrals and partnerships in your photography business but feel STUCK when it comes to actually getting them?    Maybe you feel desperate when you’re approaching them…    Or maybe you feel like you’re drowning and it’s hard to invest in someone else's business…    I recently went on a trip with my photography group (The Society of XXV), and while chatting with a high-end wedding photographer, I had my mind blown.    Early in the conversation, he told me what the FIRST THING he does when he goes to photograph a wedding… and it stopped me in my tracks.    Bottom line: If you want to get more partnerships and referrals as a photographer, you HAVE to pop on this Joycast episode.  RESOURCES: WORTH EVERY PENNY JOYCAST SHOW NOTES: https://photographybusinessinstitute.com/podcast/episode-223 SHOW TRANSCRIPT:  Click Here BOUTIQUE BREAKTHROUGH – 8-WEEK WORKSHOP www.joyofmarketing.com/boutiquebreakthrough INSTAGRAM – DM me “Conversation Starters” for some genuine ways to strike up a conversation about your photography business wherever you are. https://www.instagram.com/sarah.petty  FREE COPY: NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLING BOOK FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS www.joyofmarketing.com/freebook  FREE FACEBOOK GROUP: Join and get my free mini-class: How I earned $1,500 per client working 16 hours a week by becoming a boutique photographer. https://www.facebook.com/groups/ditchthedigitals  YOUTUBE: Check out my latest how to videos:  https://www.youtube.com/c/thejoyofmarketing  LOVE THE SHOW?
