2010 Marketing Campaign – Houston Wedding & Portrait Photography
In 2009, I mainly focused on using Social Media sites like Facebook (jonathan.lgolden) and Twitter (@jlgolden) for marketing. While I was able to get great exposure, it is important for me to use some of the "battle tested" marketing techniques of the past as well. Inbound marketing techniques (blogs & social media) are great but I see no reason to shun traditional (outbound) marketing.
Bob Bates' was kind enough to give me permission to use his beautiful daughter Sophie on my flyer. I plan to battle the elements and go door to door getting the word out about Jonathan L Golden Photography!
I read a few photography blogs religiously, and right before Christmas, Tony Hoffer had a contest where he gave away a free photo shoot. His readers had to send in stories explaining why they should get the free shoot. I was shocked when Tony wrote that more than a few readers sent in stories mentioning that they had not had a portrait taken in 20 years! One of the best ways to document you and your families journey through this beautiful life is with annual (or bi-annual) portraits. Please allow Jonathan L Golden Photography to document your timeless memories.

Jonathan, great design. Wonderful image, love the fonts…very clean. -Rob
Great thoughts on marketing! I like the ad!
Great new advert!
Love the design! Very bold on the ‘door to door’, I like it and would love to hear how it turns out!
Great piece! Yes, very clean. Cute kid too. Should work well … let us know.
I love the straight forward simple design, it matches the “Simply beautiful images” line. An alternative marketing technique I’ve tried here in Scotland is free sitting and you purchase whatever prints you want. If you take a batch of great photographs then you make several print sales which makes both you and the clients happy.
Great thoughts on marketing! I like the ad!
Jonathan, I wish you all the success you can handle. Your work is stellar and your attitude is so positive. The best thing about you is that you aren’t in my market and I don’t compete with you!
