Online Advertising

A photography business is not the easiest to advertise because it is hard to generate enough money to be able to put out advertisements. Facebook advertising would be great for my business because there are so many people on Facebook and there is a good chance a substantial amount of people will see your page. I think placing a photography advertisement on facebook would be a great idea since there are a lot of people my age who do like photography and a lot of people who are trying to become models who might need their pictures taken so they can send them in. Facebook advertising would definitely be the way to go for me and by business because people take an interest in photography and there are a lot of those people on Facebook. As for Twitter, not as many people will see your Ad and its not as easy to be able to post what you want since you are limited to what you can say. Facebook would help me target those of all ages. Families that want to get family pictures, christmas cards, weddings, etc..

  

The Advertisement tags i chose were the most simplest ones targeting people who are just interested in photography. 

The second set i added words that would attract people who need a photographer for a certain event.

Newsletter

As a photography business, there is not really that much that i could possible include in a newsletter. Since i do not really have anything to sell, besides taking the photos, there is not a whole lot to give deals on. If i were to do a newsletter, i would include discounted prices for an individual, a couple, weddings, and so on. If i were to end up sending out a newsletter, i would send it out twice a year. The reason i would send it out twice a year is because i need to make a living myself. So if i were to send it out, i could possibly gain new customers and they can also tell their friends or family who are looking to get some pictures done about my business. Since there are not many things that i could offer from a newsletter, i do not think my customers would mind because it is photography.

Categories

Categories that would go perfectly with my blog would be photography, models, photoshoot, nature, lights, and buildings. These categories would help my business grow in the biggest way because they are categories that people search for to find good photography and also categories that they can also benefit from since they will be able to see your work and maybe even hire you for events and photoshoots. In photography, people being able to see your work before they hire you is key, just like everything else.

Blogging for business

For me and my business, i think i can get very personal on my blog since my business is photography. In my opinion, photos have a lot of personality and that it was makes some of the greatest photos so great. When doing a photoshoot, personality comes in to play a huge role, and i think that is how it should be on your blog. When your customers can know some decent information about you or your business, they may even bring it upon their friends and family that they really like you and your business and advise them to check it out for yourself. It makes sense to add personality to your business whenever you feel comfortable adding it. In my opinion, you should never add it just to try and grow. If you want to get to know your customers and want them to get to know you, i think that is a great time to add it also.
