Just A Few More Days Until IPhone
Filed Under Uncategorized | 1 Comment
Are you a gadget person? I love new things, and am anxiously awaiting the arrival of the new IPhone. I love Apple’s marketing campaigns because they focus on ease. They make you want what they have to offer because it’s easy to use - and its cool! And while other phones have similar capablities, the IPhone just makes it seem like you’ve always wanted this type of technology - and that you’ll be able to use it every day without even thinking about the operations.
So in just a few days, it will be interesting to see how many people trade in their old phones for an IPhone - and to see just how well Apple’s marketing works.

Share you photography with storytelling books
Filed Under Photography Marketing, Uncategorized | Leave a Comment
Have you ever wanted to use your images and create a work of art? Or, using images to tell a story that will be shared with other?
Creating a coffee table is so much fun, I highly recommend it to everyone - especially photographers. When you already have the images, it makes the book that much easier.
Even though creating the book is fun, make sure you have a purpose. Why are you creating the book? How will you sell it? The last thing you want is a bunch of boxes of books in your basement.
Also, creating a book is not only a satisfying experience, but it also provides you with becoming an expert in your field. Saying you’re published is definitely a plus in your “resumeâ€.
