474: Vincent Pugliese – Using connection to make business personal and more successful

Premium Members, click here to access this interview in the premium area.

Vincent Pugliese of www.totallifefreedom.com was first interviewed for episode 255 of the podcast when he released his first book – Freelance to Freedom.

Before his days as an author, Vincent was a professional photographer – primarily shooting sports for newspapers and magazines.

He and his wife Elizabeth started a wedding photography business to get them out of their low-paying newspaper jobs. In less than four years, the wedding photography business helped pay off all their debt, including their family home!

Since then, they've shut down their business, and their main focus is the Total Life Freedom Community.

They homeschool their three boys and believe that having control of your time, your money, and your work leads to the ultimate freedom of life.

Vincent has also since authored a brand new book: The Wealth Of Connection: A New Approach to Making Business Personal.

Following his enlightening first interview, I'm rapt to have Vincent back for a follow-up episode.

Here's some more of what we covered in the interview:
  • Can you survive financially with storytelling alone
  • The difference between a storyteller and a content creator
  • How to find inspiration in writing a book
  • The importance of knowing to whom you are writing your book for
  • How collaborations work
  • What Vincent would do differently if he is to start his business all over again
  • What is the hour of giving
  • What is the best approach to connect with someone
  • What is the psyche compensation

iTunes Reviews and Shout-outs

Each week I check for any new iTunes or Google reviews, and it's always a buzz to receive these… for a couple of reasons.

Firstly, it's confirmation that I'm on the right track with the interviews and that they really are helping you improve your photography business. That's awesome!

Secondly, iTunes and Google are the biggest search engine when it comes to podcasts, and it's your reviews and ratings that help other photographers find PhotoBizX. More listeners mean more interviews and, ultimately a better show.

If you have left a review in the past, thank you! If you haven't and you'd like to, head to https://photobizx.com/itunes or https://photobizx.com/google, and you can leave some honest feedback and a rating which will help both me and the show, and I'll be sure to thank you on the show and add a link to your website or blog if you let me know the URL of your website and your name.

Alternatively, if you've left a review for PhotoBizX and are looking for more backlinks to help your SEO, leave a review for the new Photography Xperiment Podcast and email me your keywords or keyword phrase and where you'd like me to link to.

Another great way to get a backlink to your site is to send a video testimonial. It doesn't need to be fancy, and your phone will be perfect. Click record and tell me how PhotoBizX has made a difference to you and your photography business.​
