The Truth About Quality Leads Nov 11, 2024

In this episode of the Difference Maker Revolution podcast, hosts Jonathan Ryle, Ronan Ryle, Jeanine McLeod, Bradley Bulmer, and Steve Saporito dive deep into the often misunderstood topic of "quality leads" in business. They challenge the widespread notion that some leads are inherently “quality” or “low-quality,” and instead argue that mindset, approach, and consistent follow-up can turn any lead into a valuable client.

The team breaks down why many businesses struggle with lead quality and explains how expectations and work ethic play crucial roles in lead conversion. They also discuss the importance of viewing every lead as an opportunity and offer actionable tips for effective follow-up strategies. The conversation highlights how changing your mindset and developing persistence can make all the difference in nurturing leads.

Bradley and Ronan share real-life examples from the photography industry, revealing how ordinary people, not just high-income clients, become the best clients when you invest time and effort into building relationships. Steve and Jeanine discuss the need to take responsibility in lead generation and persistence, showing how life circumstances might be why a client is slow to respond—not necessarily lack of interest.

They also touch on the importance of nurturing long-term relationships through regular follow-ups and storytelling, which keeps potential clients engaged and reminds them of your value.

Key Discussion Points:

The reality behind the "quality lead" myth: mindset and follow-up matter more than “perfect” leads.
Why client perception is shaped by your attitude and persistence.
Practical strategies for effective lead nurturing and why you should never give up after one call.
Real-life examples showing that clients come from all backgrounds, not just high-income areas.
The power of storytelling and regular follow-up emails to keep leads warm and ready to convert.
How life circumstances impact lead response and why assumptions about “ghosting” can harm client relationships.

Secrets to a Successful Business Sep 30, 2024

In this week's episode, we delve into the common misconception that average sales value is the ultimate measure of success for a sustainable business. The team shares their insights from their own experience in the photography industry, emphasising that while average sales value is relevant, it's not the sole indicator of a thriving enterprise.

Ultimately, the key to success lies in understanding that a healthy business requires a holistic approach, considering factors such as lead generation, client conversion, and delivering exceptional value.

Never Rely on One of Anything - Especially with Marketing Sep 23, 2024

Brad reveals the majority of his new business (a staggering 90%) is generated through Facebook ads. While this strategy has proven highly effective, he acknowledges the potential risks of becoming overly dependent on a single platform.

It’s important to maintain a diverse portfolio of marketing channels in case the tides turn. The key is to avoid the temptation of putting all your eggs in one basket, lest you find yourself vulnerable to the unpredictable nature of the market.

The 5-MEGA TRENDS impacting the Photography industry - Part 2 Sep 09, 2024

In this episode, we’re still talking about the five mega trends affecting the photographic industry. We continue on the second mega trend - the self-centric photography industry, where photographers often believe that their clients value their unique style and art rather than the emotional connection and meaning they derive from the photographs.

We also explore our third mega trend, "dual worlds". With the rise of social media people are living in both the physical and digital realms, and this has a huge impact on individuals' perceptions of the photography industry. This is closely linked to our fourth mega trend, the impact of AI on photography. Will AI surpass human capabilities? How can photographers focus on the human element?

Our final mega trend is the consumer availability of products, where the once exclusive products offered by photographers are now readily available to the general public. The team discusses each of these trends and their impact on the past, present, and future of the photography industry.

Jeanine shares personal stories from childhood, how her mother instilled in her a positive attitude by always looking for the silver linings, and how this impacts her business today.

The team also highlights practical strategies for maintaining a positive mindset, such as setting time limits for negative thoughts and actively seeking out opportunities for growth and learning.

E76 | Hiring & Building A Team In The Photography Industry Jun 23, 2024

Do you know the difference between a Studio Manager and a Studio Coordinator? Both are crucial for keeping studios running smoothly, but knowing which one your studio needs can be even more important for your hiring process.

Coordinators handle scheduling, client communication, and logistics, allowing photographers to focus on their creative work. They create an organised environment where photographers can do their best.

Managers oversee the studio's overall operations. They take care of budgeting, resource allocation, and team management, ensuring everything runs smoothly. Their role is essential in making sure everyone has what they need to work effectively and harmoniously.

But remember, bringing in business isn't just up to the coordinators and managers; it's a team effort. Photographers, assistants, and administrative staff all play important roles in attracting and keeping clients. By producing great work, offering excellent customer service, and using their networks, everyone helps the studio succeed. This teamwork is key to maintaining a steady flow of business.

E71 | How To Overcome Clients Cancelling or Rescheduling Last Minute May 19, 2024

In today's fast-paced world, clients sometimes need to cancel or reschedule their sessions at the last minute. While we appreciate clients informing us 48 or 72 hours in advance, some cancel just an hour or even 15 minutes before the appointment.

This can be particularly challenging for photographers, who invest significant time and effort in preparing the studio and equipment for each session. Last-minute cancellations not only disrupt schedules but also result in financial loss. Here are three strategies to handle this issue:

1. Implement a Clear Cancellation Policy

Establish a clear cancellation policy that includes consequences for last-minute cancellations. Communicate this policy at the time of booking and in confirmation emails. For instance, charge a fee if the session is cancelled within 24 hours.

2. Require a Non-Refundable Deposit

Ask for a non-refundable deposit when clients book their session. This can cover some of your preparation costs and discourage last-minute cancellations.

3. Use Online Booking and Reminders

Invest in an online booking system that sends automatic reminders to clients about their sessions 48 and 24 hours in advance. This reduces the chance of last-minute cancellations.

By implementing these strategies, you can minimise the impact of last-minute cancellations and keep your photography business running smoothly. Clear communication and strong policies are essential for maintaining a professional and reliable service.

E70 | Offers and Marketing In The Photographic Industry May 12, 2024

In the fast-paced and competitive world of photography, offers are invaluable tools for photographers. They not only aid in attracting new business but also provide potential clients with a glimpse of the photographer's skills and style before committing to a full package.

Despite their clear advantages, some photographers feel hesitant about running offers. There's a concern that providing discounts or special deals might unintentionally diminish their brand, compromise work quality, or reduce reliability in the eyes of clients.

It's natural to have reservations about marketing oneself, but embracing promotional activities is essential for long-term success. By actively showcasing your work, engaging with potential clients through various marketing channels, and strategically employing offers to attract attention, you not only enhance your visibility but also bolster your perceived value in the eyes of your target audience.

Remember, marketing isn't solely about selling services; it's about fostering relationships, building trust, and positioning yourself as a reputable and reliable professional in the industry. So, don't let fear hold you back. Embrace marketing, and witness your business flourish as it reaps the rewards of your efforts.

In the world of photography, the concept of 'luxury' often takes centre stage, with many photographers branding themselves as providers of premium services complete with lavish extras.

However, this approach doesn't always yield a bustling client base.

Instead, by prioritising the delivery of high-quality results, photographers can demonstrate their dedication to excellence, fostering trust and reliability among their clientele.

This focus on quality over ostentation is crucial for building a reputable and enduring presence in the industry.

E64 | How to Properly Connect with Clients and Stop Them from Ghosting You Apr 01, 2024

Are you finding it difficult to truly understand your photography clients and keep them engaged?

Asking the right questions is key to discovering what matters most to them and making an emotional connection.

Small acts of empathy like active listening and focusing on their goals, rather than just the technical aspects of the shoot, can build strong rapport. This prevents clients from losing interest down the line and helps land more bookings.

By tailoring questions to learn about each individual client's unique needs and interests, you can get them excited about capturing their special moments.

E62 | Difference Makers Don't entertain 'Sellers Remorse' because their Client is Always the Hero! Mar 18, 2024

How can you become a difference maker in your photography business? By focusing less on yourself and more on your clients.

As a difference maker, your goal should be to understand each client's unique needs and provide a transformational experience. This means truly listening without judgement and helping clients feel valued. It also means getting comfortable with discomfort, as pushing past your limits is when real growth occurs.

Most importantly, have faith in your ability to make a difference. Let go of fears of not being "good enough" and trust that by prioritising client fulfilment over your own insecurities, you will naturally attract those meant to appreciate your gifts. In time, you will look back amazed at how far you've come and the lives you've touched along the way.

E61 | Difference Makers Keep All Their Weeding For The Garden Mar 11, 2024

How do you qualify leads? Are you calling every lead and making a quick judgement? Or are you spending time and effort getting to know them? Quick judgements may seem like a sensible strategy, but the team discussed the importance of quality over quantity, particularly when it comes to how you spend your time.

Ronan asks Jeanine and Steve how they weed out the leads from their marketing and discover which of them are actually going to make a booking. Jeanine reflects on the detriment of pre-judging your leads and making them jump through hoops to prove they’re worth a conversation. Steve tells the story of how managers framed their requirements to enable their teams to make bookings much more efficiently.

E60 | What does 'defining your own success' mean? Mar 04, 2024

Is success truly defined by money and achievements, or is there more to it? For Jonathan and Ronan, true success is about so much more. They discuss how to define success on your own terms rather than comparing yourself to others.

Whether you want to build a multi-million dollar studio or earn a modest living, your version of success is valid as long as you're passionate about your work. They explore overcoming fears of failure by focusing on the joy of the journey, not just the destination. Finding fulfilment in helping clients brings the most reward, not financial goals. So don't get caught up in what others think is success - define it for yourself and don't be afraid to start small as you follow your dreams.
