361 - Eliminate your Marketing Speedbumps
from This Can't Be That Hard · host Annemie Tonken
Picture this: you're cruising down the highway, passing billboard after billboard without really registering any of them. Then hunger strikes, and suddenly that McDonald's sign is the only thing you can see.That's how marketing works: you're not introducing yourself once and hoping for the best. You're showing up again and again, so that when your client's _"I need a photographer!"_ moment finally hits, yours is the name that comes to mind.But here's the catch: even when someone is ready to pull off at the next exit and book, their brain starts throwing up speed bumps: questions about pricing, worries about their messy house, uncertainty about how the whole process works.In this episode, Annemie and Dayna break down how to use your email and social media marketing to sand down those speed bumps before someone even _thinks_ about booking, making the decision to hire you feel easy, obvious, and overdue.In this episode, we cover:The rule of seven, and why the repetition in your marketing isn't annoying, it's necessaryFour of the most common client hesitations and how to address each oneHow to turn your FAQs and prep guide into a steady stream of evergreen contentWhy a clear, specific call to action matters more than you think (and what "vague booking" is costing you)By the end, you'll have a whole new way to think about your social and email content... less like a relentless content treadmill, more like a helpful guide walking your ideal clients right to your door.Resources:New to the podcast?
