The power of viral marketing

My friend and designated Santa-Groom of 2009 (Their wedding is on Dec. 27th so ), Adam, just posted an album on his facebook with the images of their engagement portrait sessions that we did a few weeks ago.

First of all, Adam! Thank you man! No words on that. Free marketing is the best one we can have – and that’s why it deserves a post here on my blog

We photographers go every single day wondering around – How do I make it out there? How can I get known around the industry? How much money will I have to spend? Marketing is this monster with 7 heads! I don’t know how to market myself…
My friends! Can you talk? Can you generate communication with people? – THAT’S MARKETING! and the best of it It’s FREE!!! How many communication ways do we have now a days? Text messaging, Mail Newsletter, Blogs, Twitter, Facebook, Orkut, Digg.com, Wikipedia.org
You name it, there is one out there. And fellas! It doesn’t cost you a penny. Only time. 10 minutes of it the most!

Don’t ever under estimate the power of the internet. It’s the easiest and most effect way of communication on the world today. Use it my friends. Put the word out! Ask your clients to do the same! Let them be your billboard, let everybody that you know be your review! The more people talk and the more you spread the word! the more buzz you generate! The more work you will ever get.

Here is a screen shot of just comments on the front page of the album. And I keep receiving emails that someone commented on one of the pictures!
Adam again!

THANK YOU!

Love,

Paulo Basseto
