MY EVENTS
On April 16th, 2010 I’ll be doing another photography marketing speaking event. But this time, I’m sticking closer to home! I’ll be presenting to a group of women photographers at the Evanston Country Club.
I’ll discuss how to identify your ideal clients, how to reach them most efficiently and other techniques for surviving and thriving while the news media is in upheaval and better-paying assignments are harder to come by.
When: 6 p.m. CDT, Friday, April 16.
Where: Evanston Golf Club
4401 Dempster St.
Skokie, IL 60076
(This is a club with traditions. No denim, please.)
Light buffet will be served.
Thanks to both LiveBooks and ADBASE for their contributions to this event!
Registration and other info is available here. Early-bird pricing is available until April 13th.
This event is organized by Karen Kring for the Women Photojournalists of Chicago and Friends, a new-ish group of women photojournalists, photographers and allies focused on professional development and camaraderie. Male photographers are welcome to join the conversation.
==================================================
I get to escape Chicago’s winter weather when I head to San Francisco to present my talk:
“ReBooting Your Business Brain..” to the ASMP NorCal chapter on Feb. 9th, 2010.
So much has changed these last few months, that large sections of this talk are completely new.
The event starts at 6:00 p.m. with a Social Hour and then I go on at 7:00 p.m.
The event will be at:
Blue Sky Studios
2325 3rd Street
San Francisco CA 94107

More details are on the ASMP NorCal’s chapter Events page.
The usual discount I offer for early-bird registration on my one-on-one portfolio reviews will apply.
Event sponsorship is being generously provided
by LiveBooks and Agency Access and PhotoShelter.

This talk is geared to professional photographers who’ve been in the industry for over 15 years. Understanding how the marketing of images has so radically–and so swiftly– changed, can benefit these photographers the most; those who are concerned that in this economy, they can’t afford to “not know what they don’t know.” They suspect that things are different when it comes to promoting their work in the digital age. But they’re not sure which strategies they should implement– and which ones they can ignore.
Nothing changes faster than online promotion. What worked
great last year might not be the best tactic this year.
At this event I’ll provide some tips, guidelines and
resources, on how to stay current.
In a recession when work is harder to find and pricing is
dropping daily, you can’t afford to shoot yourself in the
foot with an outmoded promotional strategy. Buyers have
exponentially greater choices; don’t let them pass you by
because your online strategy is not as good as your
imagery.
Come join in!
