This week I am excited to welcome back a good friend of mine, Charlotte!Charlotte is a British-born Equine & Dog photographer located in Georgia. Having successfully run a profitable photography business, she uses what she has learned throughout her journey to help other business owners achieve the same.In this episode, we dove into what it takes to create a 5-figure client. And everything points back to presentation and customer experience. People get skeeved out by the word "sales" and it's time we normalize it and remove the sleazy car salesman stigma from it. Personally, I love to be sold to. The idea of browsing clothes rack after clothes rack makes me sick to my stomach. But let me walk into a store where the associates cater to their customers and make suggestions on things I should buy? Sign me up! The same is true for our portrait clients. They become easily overwhelmed by which portraits to choose, and which artwork to choose. And this is where we come in, without suggestions on what size and piece will look best where. Take a listen, and let me know what your takeaways are!Charlotte Detienne - Website | Facebook | InstagramConnect with Karinda!

This week's episode is a little bit different in that this is an interview from the archives that I did with Charlotte a few years ago. You see, Charlotte and I have been working together for quite a few years and I have seen her take her portrait business from a hobby where she earned some supplemental income, into a successful 6-figure brand.Charlotte is a British-born Equine & Dog photographer located in Georgia. Having successfully run a profitable photography business, she uses what she has learned throughout her journey to help other business owners achieve the same. While it is a blast from the past, this interview will give you a sense of where Charlotte began, the steps she took in her business, and ultimately provide you some background insight moving into next week when I catch up with Charlotte to dig into the making of the 5-figure client.I hope that you enjoy this episode and look forward to your feedback!Charlotte Detienne - Website | Facebook | InstagramConnect with Karinda!

There are a million different ways to run a business and no one way is right while another is wrong. Kirstie and I recorded this episode a while back after seeing a pretty heated discussion in a photography group between IPS and All-Inclusive sales. You see, Kirstie and I both run successful equine portrait businesses in Texas and offer coaching programs, however, that is where the similarities between our businesses end. This conversation was a great one and I am excited to share it with you here and can't wait to hear your feedback.References:Kirstie is an award-winning equine photographer located in Texas with a passion for capturing the immeasurable bond between a girl and her horse. Website | Instagram | FacebookConnect with Karinda!

Hindsight is 20/20.Right?Today, I am joined by fellow equine portrait photographer, Kirstie Marie! As a lifetime horse enthusiast, she has experienced first-hand the bond between a horse and a girl. She strives to capture that special relationship for each and every client. In 2015, she began offering mentoring services to other photographers and small business owners. In 2019, she developed on-demand instructional video courses on popular subjects at a more affordable price point. Her goal is simple: to help others establish a profitable, sustainable business that becomes the career of their dreams. We're diving into the would and should haves of our portrait photography businesses. What would we do differently if we were starting our business now? Where should we have spent more time and energy? References:Kirstie Marie - Website | Instagram | FacebookConnect with Karinda!
