Marketing Tips for Photographers | The Tog Republic Podcast

You might be wondering why are we talking about impostor syndrome and mindset in a marketing podcast, and well the reason why is because if we don’t feel secure in who we are as artist/business owners we can’t have a thriving business. Let me introduce you to Dave Moss, a wedding photographer turned business and life coach for adventurous humans who want to improve both their lives and their businesses, and in today’s episode we are chatting about how to beat impostor syndrome and cultivate a positive mindset so you can experience more joy in your life, and obviously, have fun in your business. Since art is subjective, there are always people that will find our work beautiful, while others will think it’s pure trash, and obviously, this can make us feel self-conscious and unsure about our abilities. But as you all know I love some actionable steps and in today’s episode, Dave shares with all of us some tools and tips we can apply right now, to beat imposter syndrome and cultivate a positive mindset.

Friend although this podcast it’s all about marketing, today we are taking this conversation to a topic that I love, and that overall can help you be a better photographer: Meditation. While scrolling IG I came across Marnix’s story and it stopped me in my tracks. He was chatting about how sitting on a park bench for a year made him a better photographer. So Immediately I reached out to him because I wanted to hear more! I have been practicing meditation (on and off) for two decades and I have experienced the benefits of having a calm mind during stressful moments and how it can help us be more creative and perform better. But you all know me, and I can’t leave behind my marketing mind, so in this episode, Marnix also shares with us some of his marketing tips! Want more content?

Friend, meet Nathan Holritz, he’s the founder of photographersedit.com and in today’s episode we’re chatting about why outsourcing your edits is actually an investment in your business. If you are like me, perhaps you do it all! And although that can be great, the reality is that at some point help is needed if we want to grow. Editing is one of those tasks that feel very personable, and maybe even hard to delegate, but once you take a look at the big picture ( no pun intended) and we realized that our time as creators/business owner/ entrepreneur is better spent somewhere else, then outsourcing our editing sounds like the best idea ever! In this chat, Nathan shares with us how his company works, why outsourcing is actually a great opportunity to grow your business, make more money, and maybe even be happier :) Nathan is also the host of the Bokeh Podcast, with over 500 episodes you can be sure that you will find a topic you like in his library.
