Angie - {Greensboro Personal Branding}

Here is the thing about Angie’s profession: she has to connect to her clients. Period. End of sentence.

As a Doula she is with her clients on one of the most important days of their lives. But the connection starts WAY before then. She meets with her clients several times to discuss their needs, their desires for a birth plan, their fears, their dreams. She coaches them, encourages them, guides them long before their sweet babies make their grand entrance.

Angie came to me when it was time to update her website, Facebook profile, and Instagram profile. She wanted to convey the right message to potential clients, to show them what she can do. In other words she wanted to connect with them before ever meeting them. So we set up a Personal Branding session. We did new Headshots in my studio. A few days later I was in the room documenting a meeting with her clients. I could barely remember to take pictures because I was so engrossed in what she was teaching them.

We made some magic.

Headshots and what-nots

I am finding that starting this business has taken me down a path I didn't expect.  I thought that a majority of my time would be spent actually taking pictures, editing, culling, etc.  But a good 85% of my time is spent on the business part of my business: Quickbooks, landing pages, Facebook Ads, taxes, networking...

The amazing part is, it is actually fun and exciting (on top of stressful and hard). I have had a chance to meet other small business owners, especially other moms and the connection is instant.  We can talk shop, give advice, take advice and laugh at everything. 

Business doesn't look the way it used to and I for one am so grateful.
