In this episode we're talking about the Art of Sales Conversations. It's all about making those chats less about 'selling' and more about connecting with and solving our clients' needs. Ready to dive in? 

The first step in mastering sales conversations is shifting our mindset.  Sales conversations usually make us nervous right?  Many photographers dread sales because it feels pushy. But here's a different way to look at it: You're not selling; you're helping. 

Your services provide a solution to your clients' needs, whether it's capturing their wedding day or creating lasting family portraits.  When you approach sales from a place of service, the conversation naturally becomes more about the client and less about the sale.

Creating appealing photography packages isn't just about putting together a list of services; it's about understanding your clients. Every client comes with a unique set of needs, expectations, and budgets. 

The goal here for you is to design packages that not only meet these needs but also exceed them. People part with money generally because they think they’re getting more than they paid for.  They’re looking for value.  For example, wedding clients might look for all-inclusive packages that cover everything from the engagement shoot to the reception. Meanwhile, portrait clients might prefer more basic options with the flexibility to add on product and services. 

The key here is versatility and customisation. By offering a range of packages, you're showing potential clients that you're ready to cater to their specific desires.

In today’s episode we're going to talk about a topic that’s crucial for the growth of your photography business – identifying and profiling your ideal client. 

Knowing who you're aiming your lens at can make a world of difference in how you market, shoot, and grow your business.

Ok, Why does Identifying Your Ideal Client Matter?

Identifying your ideal client is like finding your photography's SatNav. 

It guides your marketing efforts, shapes your portfolio, and even influences the way you approach your shoots. 

It's about connecting with those clients who don’t just appreciate your work, but who also bring out the best in your creative talents.

Today, we’re diving into a topic that many of us shy away from - the big, sometimes intimidating world of pricing. 

Let’s be honest, setting the right price for your work can feel like walking a tightrope right? If you charge too much? You fear losing clients. If you charge too little? You undervalue your art. 

It’s time we tackle this head-on and shift our mindset about money.  We're going to be looking at:

--Understanding Your Value

--Confronting the Fear

--Market Research & Pricing Strategies

--Communicating Your Value

--The Psychology of Pricing

Welcome to Wedding & Portrait Photographers Together’ the podcast where we focus on the art of flourishing in the photography industry. 

I'm Dee Airey your host, and I’m a professional wedding and studio portrait photographer with years of experience not just behind the lens, but also in guiding fellow photographers towards establishing and growing their own successful ventures.

In this intro to our new series, we're looking into the core aspects that make a photography business thrive. 

Mindset Work: We'll talk about the foundation of all success – your mindset. Understanding your relationship with money, overcoming self-doubt, and cultivating a growth mindset are crucial in this creative industry.

Ideal Client Identification: Knowing who you're shooting for is as important as knowing how to shoot. We'll explore strategies to identify and profile your ideal client, ensuring your work resonates with the right audience.

Brand Identity: Your brand is your promise to your client. We'll discuss how to create a compelling brand, and more importantly, how to make it known. Branding goes beyond logos and colours; it's about the experience you promise.  It’s about how people on the outside of your business see you.

Marketing the Business: No business can grow without a solid marketing strategy. We'll delve into effective marketing techniques tailored for wedding and portrait photographers, helping you to reach your audience and convert them into loyal clients.

How do you adopt the right mindset for creating and growing a success business?  There are so many answers, I could talk about mindset matters for multiple episodes, because there's so much to say. But for today, I'll touch on just a few things.

I’ve recently talked about manifestation and manifesting for your business.    And now I want to give you a little more on mindset matters.

Why? Because I speak to so many photographers who don’t yet have mindset and belief systems necessary for starting and growing a successful business. 

So, here’s a few things I want you to embrace:  It’s important to explore the power of positive thinking and self-belief in manifesting entrepreneurial success.  

• Clarify Your Business Vision and define your goals.   It’s important to align yourself with your goals and take action.

How do you manifest?

There’s lots of confusion about this because many people think that if I sit quietly and close my eyes and think about the thing I want.  I’ll get it.  If I do it enough, perhaps every day for 30 days it’ll happen. 

Well….it doesn’t quite happen that way, but it’s a start I guess. Manifestation isn’t a hope and a dream and a prayer.  I’m sorry but that’s the truth.
