"How you leave in an experience is just as, if not more important than how you start it."

Hi Sunshines! I'm so glad you’re here! In this episode, we're going to uncover the secret sauce behind booking more photography clients using the fascinating concept of the primacy recency effect. Trust me, it's a psychological phenomenon that will blow your mind!

Humans have a tendency to remember the first and last things they encounter in an experience more vividly than anything in between. It's like having a superpower for leaving a lasting impression! And that's where the magic happens.

I'm here to spill the tea on how you can make an unforgettable first impression during that initial phone call. But that’s not all that matters, I'll be sharing some epic examples of how you can leave your clients wanting more at the end of a conversation.

We’re going to talk about standing out from the crowd, my friends. Offering something unique to potential clients is key! I'm dishing out some creative ideas that will have your clients head over heels, begging to work with you.

🔑 In this episode, you will learn:

  • Why providing unique and personalized follow-up resources is key
  • The importance of first and last impressions in client interactions
  • How to address booking bottlenecks in the client onboarding process

Hello, sunshine!! ☀️This week we are diving into the world of booking bottlenecks and how to overcome them in the buyer's journey.

It's crucial to find that perfect balance between giving just enough information without overwhelming potential clients. Keep your website, marketing materials, and social media accounts clear, concise, and to the point.

When it comes to pricing: there's no one-size-fits-all approach here. Experiment with displaying prices on your website or not, and remember to stay flexible. If custom proposals are your thing, there might be better ways to go than fixed prices.

When potential clients reach out, be mindful of how much belief-shifting you need to do during that phone call. Keep an open mind and be prepared to answer any questions they might have.

This podcast is here to help you find your sweet spot – the perfect blend of pricing, marketing strategies, and client engagement that works best for you and your business. So, give it a go, and watch your booking rates soar! 🚀

In this episode, you will learn:

  • Pros and cons of having a strict pricing structure.
  • Strategies to build brand trust.
  • 5 tips to overcome booking bottlenecks in your buyer’s journey.
