We started Virtual as a way to help photographers stretch beyond a part time income, and develop strategies to become a Five Figure Photographer or a Six Figure Photographer. Ultimately its all about lifestyle, and if your goal is to live as a photographer 24/7, we think you should have the knowledge and the tools to do so. Welcome!

    Heard of Genbook on Facebook. Many of the hairdressers are using it for booking appointment online. Not sure if it is such a good idea to show your appt online when most of the time it is empty.

    Maybe better to take appt the old fashion way – over the phone and always appearing busy to potential customers.

    I use http://www.studiolead.com and for the price, you just can’t beat it

  • Jessi

    Some of these websites can only be used if you like in USA and Canada… What happened to catering to other countries too?

    Good call Jessi – I’ll have to start being aware of more resources that are available worldwide.
