Marketing Campaigns for Photographers #7 The Humble Keyring

Last week our marketing campaign suggestion was a fairly large one and involved a fair amount of expense….. this week couldn’t be more different!

You know what’s really annoying?

You take great photos

Your clients love you

You have a Refer a Friend campaign already in place

You’ve even organised an exhibition of your best work.

……. and yet…..

Your clients keep forgetting your card when talking about you.

You clients can’t remember your website address or phone number.

Your clients forgot about your wonderfully generous refer a friend scheme.

Wouldn’t it be lovely if all these problems were resolved with something that costs you under $1?

Well why not create a photo keyring for your clients as a nice little gift….. before they even order anything!

Include those important details like your website, phone number and any promotions you might be running…… this isn’t just a gift…… it’s a personalised business card you’ve made especially for each and every one of your clients…… and it works wonders!

Michael ShillingI divide my time between being a photographer, retoucher, photography blogger and podcaster. Deep down I like to consider myself a portrait photographer and in my short 10 ten years in the business I’ve taken over 100,000 people’s studio portraits. When I’m not taking pictures I’m writing about it, most of my rambles can be found daily at http://photocreative365.com.

  2. Great idea with the right image

    Great idea. Where, though to purchase 1 or 2 key rings at a time with different images on each side?

    • I should have mentioned that you can buy packs of keyring backs to make your own very cheaply.

      I buy a couple of hundred at a time. We have a Photoshop action which sizes the images and we print them out on a little dye sub….. oh and we have a special passport sized cutter too that cost us £20.
