Why You're Hiding From Your Clients
313 - Let’s be honest, marketing your business can feel terrifying. 🙈
The thought of putting yourself out there? Instant heart palpitations. But what if visibility didn’t have to feel like self-promotion? In this week’s episode, Nicole and Heather uncover the fears that keep photographers hiding behind their cameras and how to shift your mindset so visibility feels like service, not bragging.
What to Listen For
- The real reason photographers say “I don’t know how” to market
- How fear of judgment quietly sabotages your visibility
- Why your brain treats marketing like a life-or-death threat
- A simple reframe that transforms “look at me” into “let me help you”
- How to replace “convincing” energy with “service” energy in sales
- Why not sharing your services is actually doing your clients a disservice
- Why every strategy fails if you don’t first address fear
Visibility isn’t about shouting louder — it’s about showing up to serve. When you reframe marketing as an act of helping instead of self-promotion, everything changes.
