THE ECONOMY,SMALL BUSINESS,ADVERTISING & PHOTOGRAPHY
A few personal thoughts after the last three years of economic crisis when small businesses have suffered financially.
What have they cut back on to survive? Staff, brutal layoffs! And next ADVERTISING.The result: people out of work,loss of revenue by small business because of lack of visibility in the marketplace.The ultimate success of any business or endevour depends on potential buyers or clients actually seenig or being informed of the existence of that business.
I have noticed over the last year that my own efforts to promote my photography business have started to pay off.
The majority of my clients find me through the internet search engines. The aim of any promotional website is to achieve a top 10 page rank for particular search keywords. But how to achieve this position without spending thousands of dollars with an SEO Company.
My initial answer was Google AdWords. I immediatelly started to get responses. However, AdWords still cost over $200.00 per month.
I then started to work on my website. I began to understand how to structure the source code so search engines would list me, at least, on the first or top of the 2nd. page search.
When I started to get the search results that I needed I was able to drop AdWords and save that monthly fee.
In this technological age,where most small business seems driven through the internet or TV, an ineresting thing happened to my photography business. Over the many years I have worked as a photographer, I had always been known as a people ,celebrity and lifestyle photographer. I suddenly found that I was getting calls to shoot product (which had been a small part of my business).I guess that as a fledgling photographer with Vogue Magazine I was required to learn all types of lighting, from fashion to beauty to sets to product.
The lesson I have learned lately is that if you want to be seen in the market place you must promote yourself or your business.So, bite the bullet, set aside a little money and use it to promote and advertise.
The results may surprise you! |
