Being Seen in Your Business

We talk a lot about putting the right things out on social media, connecting with your clients before trying to sell to them, and focus a lot on our brand's colors, website, etc. etc. 

But how much of an emphasis do you place on the image you are actually portraying to your clients? How do they feel when they see your headshot? Does it attract the kind of client you want to work with. 

Lisa Arnold and I, of Lisa Arnold Photography talk all about this; but we get into much more as right now... photographers are temporarily taking some time (along with the rest of us) to be home. Lisa shares openly about how her business is being affected right now and how she continues to show up with a mindset of service and helping others. This is a truly beautiful podcast episode! 

Lisa's Bio: A self-taught photographer, Lisa started her career shooting weddings. While she loved working with brides at their weddings, she fell out of love the sameness of each event and fell in love with the personal connection of portraits.  After about 15 years of weddings, she transitioned, nearly entirely to portraits. Lisa has shaped her business with the question, "How do you want to be seen?" and has a podcast by the same name. Click HERE to find more about Lisa and hear her podcast.

Supporting Yourself and Others During Uncertain Times

It’s pretty likely that most of us will be impacted by COVID-19 and the state of our country as it is right now. Maybe you have been encouraged to start working from home, conduct your meetings virtually, not network as much, or at all. Maybe your children are staying home from school for the foreseeable future. So, what can we do when it feels like everything is being forced to pause? Here are my thoughts on what we can do as business owners and professionals during this time to support ourselves and one another, as well as ways to stay connected and get involved in the coming weeks.
