THE 80/20 RULE

PHOTOGRAPHY AND THE 80/20 RULE

You know that to be a successful professional portrait and wedding photographer, you have to do more than take good photographs. It is a popular belief that photography is (sadly) only about 20% of the skills required to successfully run a small business.

At MarketingForPhotographers.com we believe in the 80/20 rule – A successful business requires 80% of your time devoted to the business and about 20% to photography.

Our goal is to create a site that will offer unique, useful information on sales and marketing for photographers as well as great business ideas for photographers around the world. The Marketing for Photographers website is built for Wedding Photographers and Portrait Photographers and focuses on some of the most pressing problems in the industry.
