#235: Photographers Everywhere? Here's Why That Can Actually Help You

Feeling like the photography world is overcrowded? With over 114,000 photographers in the U.S. alone, it’s easy to think the market is too saturated to stand out. But what if I told you that more competition can actually help your business? In this week's Joycast, I’m sharing a fresh perspective on competition, inspired by my days in advertising and the bustling Diamond District in New York City. You’ll learn: - Why competition can actually attract more clients in photography - How most photographers are hiding and why that’s your opportunity to shine - The key to setting yourself apart and standing out in a crowded market If you’ve been struggling to book clients and wondering if there are just too many photographers out there, hit play and discover how to flip the script and make competition work for you, not against you.
