Here’s my 82nd Podcast, but my first ever that was recorded as a podcast and not streamed to LinkedIn.
This means we have full licence to talk about LinkedIn and offer helpful tips and advice on this platform.
Which is just as well as my guest for this episode is none other than Jeff Brown, The Photographers Mentor
We talk about photography, business, and the art of networking and explore LinkedIn's transformative potential for photographers and entrepreneurs.
Discover how LinkedIn mirrors a massive networking event. Jeff emphasizes the significance of actively engaging daily, drawing parallels to networking events. He highlights that success on LinkedIn reflects your active involvement.
Jeff shares insights from his book "The Ambitious Photographer's Journal," introducing "Opportunity Wednesday," a universal practice. He encourages seizing the abundant entrepreneurial opportunities available in the digital age.
We also talked about Jeff's approach to brand collaborations. By providing value, he opens doors to new opportunities. Visibility, credibility, and authority flourish with appearances on platforms like podcasts and in magazines.
We also touch upon Jeff's role as an ambassador for OM System (Olympus) and his upcoming travel guide books that he is currently writing.
Jeff Brown began his professional photography career as a Military Photographer in the British Royal Navy. After nine years of service, he made the decision to leave the armed forces and establish his own photography company. Within eighteen months, he achieved remarkable success with a six-figure turnover wedding photography company and a commercial photography company. He also ventured into the school photography business, collaborating with sixty nursery schools, and established a Boudoir Makeover company that conducted 1,000 boudoir shoots annually.
Jeff has personally captured over 750 weddings, but in 2015, he shifted his focus to developing an online photography business mentoring program. His mission is to inspire and support photographers worldwide in improving their business marketing strategies. He currently mentors photographers in more than 20 countries, helping them build their brand and become the "Go-To Photographer" in their niche to achieve the success they deserve.
Jeff is also an accomplished author with three best-selling photography books to his name: "The Photographer's Missing Link-edIn," "The Ambitious Photographer's Journal," and "Help My Photography Website Needs More Customers." He regularly conducts LinkedIn Lives and webinars, boasting a following of over 60,000 photographers on the platform.
In addition to his writing and mentoring, Jeff contributes to various photography magazines and associations. He serves as an ambassador for OM System, The British Photography Awards, Studio Ninja, The Societies of Photographers, President of The BIPP (British Institute of Professional Photography), and the UK and US Brand Ambassador for The Shutter Studio App.
