One consistent theme amongst a lot of conversations I have with photographers is that they’re pretty sure they should have a blog, but they’re not so sure what to do with it. It seems that a lot of photographers set up a blog, write four or five great posts, and then abandon it. I’d like to help photographers solve that problem.

slinky 3Outsourcing your blog for $500/month (a la GhostRighters) isn’t the solution.

Next Wednesday (May 5th), I’ll be opening entrance to Photo Blog Boost, a learning program for photographers that want to give their blog a kick. The program will be a hybrid of technical how-to along with (and in my mind, more importantly), topics such as finding one’s focus, vision, topics to blog about, and how to write blog posts that will help a photographer’s business.

Information will be presented in various forms:

  • online articles/tutorials in text form
  • online video
  • twice-weekly email updates
  • each participant gets one 20 minute private coaching/consultation with me, to be scheduled at the participant’s discretion
  • each participant gets unlimited access to send me email messages for Q&A

Photo Blog Boost will be presented as a 12-week program (although participants can work through the material at their own pace if they desire). Each week will focus on a topic, with tutorials, resources, and a “homework” suggestion related to that topic.

Exact membership details will be announced along with the program details next week, but I want to extend a special offer to current Social Photo Talk readers: subscribe to the Social Photo Newsletter and receive a 30% discount on the Photo Blog Boost program. Just before the program launches, I’ll send a personalized discount code to members of the newsletter mailing list (existing newsletter subscribers are already set to get a discount).

I want to help you take your blog to the next level. Drop by next Wednesday for all of the details and to register for Photo Blog Boost.

I’m excited to announce the Photo Blog Boost program is now ready. Designed for photographers who want to give their blog a kick, the program focuses on the why, what, and how of an effective blog for a photographer.

Urban WheelAs a photographer, your blog should help you show your work. Your blog should help potential clients find you. Your blog should reinforce relationships with existing clients. All of these things lead to the fact that your blog should help you make more money. That’s what Photo Blog Boost is about: making your blog support your business.

The Photo Blog Boost program includes text articles, videos, and a private one-on-one consulting session. Find out more about how to give your blog a boost.
