I am a pro who learned a very long time gone that making profits in a business is not always about being the best. Sure you have got to be well qualified and be ready to do your job well but none of that matters if clients have no idea you exist. Marketing is the key to getting new clients and staying in business. With the recession is full swing I thought I should branch out and help other photographers in non competing markets stay ahead of the game. I started my photography promotion web site. Sure I had lots of great promoting and promotion ideas to list but I would have liked to have something targeted at marriage photographers. I wanted to offer discounted travel and honeymoon packages that might be given away or sold at bridal shows. If you’ve ever paid thousands to display at a large bridal show you know how it feels to see not simply a few but lots of potential cliens walk by your display as if you’re not there. Most likely because at least half of those attending already have photography taken care of and have no interest in comparing your services. I assumed if you might add a great Honeymoon Travel Banner the the display you would attract your client what needs photography but also many of those who do not.

I found a discount travel program with 2 parts. One part is an extraordinary travel site for self booking of flights, hotels, villas and cars. You could hire a Villa in France for a little less than it cost staying at an a local medium priced hotel for 2-3 days. After some research I was sold on the concept. The other side of the business is promoting. It is based on selling memberships and even offers lower priced travel bargains. Idid some more research and found real savings as much as $300.00 per individual when I compared actual resorts and flights. Links are avvailable at my photography promotion site if you would like more details.
Another superb deal were the promotional offers they had available. I could give my clients and possible clients a $25.00 Dining Certificate good at close to 12,000 restaurants and pay only $2.50 for the certificate. If you would like to make a client happy give them a present they can actually use and enjoy. As a side benefit when given out at trade shows I don’t need to take names because upon registration for the gift certificate the information is sent direct to my email box. This was a win-win for everybody. This is not just a great travel site for marriage photographers needing additional promotion and revenue but the business traveler who wants a more acceptable price and more selection on flights and hotels. Independent studies suggest that this site was the most acceptable price nearly 68% of the time when compared to widely known travel discounters.
If somebody is searching for a ready made business and have the will power to go out after new business thsi would be a great part-time venture and could turn into a fulltime profession within a year or 2. Take a look and see what you think.
