Hello all, is there any way in particular that I should market myself? In today’s digital age are ads the way to go (social media ads in particular)? Or are business cards effective enough to get your name out there and circulating. Should I make a website first? Do I need to just let word of mouth land me my first few clients? I’m not sure the best route here and I’m sure it’s very situation specific but would be interested to see what others think. I have tried everything I can think of without spending more money to land shoots. I’ve offered free shoots to everyone I know multiple times to atleast get more practice and have more photos to say I took and to market myself with I honestly don’t mind not making money off of photography but I think it would be really nice if I could make it work being it is my only real passion. Another road block I think I’ve hit is that being my age (19) my friends who are all of similar age are really not scheduling any photo shoots they are broke. Idk any advice on what I should be doing to progress myself professionally.
