320: Julie Muir – Photography business growth strategies from a successful wedding celebrant

Premium Members, click here to access this interview in the premium area. Julie Muir of www.juliemuircelebrant.com.au is not a ‘typical' guest for this podcast – she's a wedding celebrant, not a photographer. If your first instinct is to skip this episode in favour of an interview with a recognised photographer – do so at your own peril.  To say I was blown away by what Julie had to share is a massive understatement! She kept firing away with tactics, strategies and ideas she uses and has used to grow her business fast and by attracting her ideal clients. At the same time, she is utilising beautifully simple networking tactics to create meaningful (and helpful to her business) relationships with other local vendors.  Not only was Julie super generous in what she had to share in our initial face to face recording… she called me on the way home to say she forgot to share more details on another 3 fantastic tactics she's utilising in her business that would work equally well for podcast listeners – photographers.  So… we recorded another segment to add to the already jam-packed episode.  I think it's important to find ways to connect with your couples and show them you care, and it doesn't have to be expensive. – Julie Muir Premium members are in for a real treat with half the interview saved only for you.  If you're on the fence about becoming a premium member, THIS IS THE EPISODE where you want to hear everything that's shared!
