Sure, your business has been growing every year.

You can barely breath some weeks from having so much to do.

But overall?

Things are “feast or famine.”

You finally get ahead and are booked, and then the next few weeks are dead.

So once things are said and done, you’re back to ground zero and you’re barely making anything.

You’re worried about paying the bills.

You’re too busy trying every marketing tactic out there…Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter…oh wait, now everyone’s telling you to get on the *NEW THING*…

…and there’s ALWAYS the next *NEW THING*

You’re so busy spinning your wheels,

That you aren’t doing what you love.

Whether you dream of buying your daughter those expensive jeans she’s always wanted, lounging on the couch watching cartoons with your kids,

or spending Sunday in Pajamas just because

one thing’s for sure:

The secret to getting back to what you love?

Is generating income during “the gaps”.

Those weeks and months that have holes that could and SHOULD be filled with sessions.

So you AREN’T always in “feast or famine mode.”

Sure – you manage to play hide-and-go with your son every now and again.

You even sing him Twinkle Twinkle Little Star every night before bed (when you’re not editing, that is).

But there’s just one little problem:

Your calendar isn’t filled with the things you love to do.

The things you thought a photography business would bring you, but only took away.

The freedom of being able to take a day off work when your kids are sick and feel ok about it.

The freedom to splurge on a last minute trip to Denver to see a Taylor Swift concert with your girls.

The freedom to enjoy your life.

And while a typical photographers 9-8pm work schedule isn’t a sin?

It isn’t exactly what you thought living the photographer dream would be.

Introducing The Profitable Mini Session Formula + Done for You Campaigns

The complete guide to dominating your “calendar gaps” with a 3-day mini event, making moms want to book you and not even looking at the competition, with done-for-your marketing proven to skyrocket your mini session bookings.

I’m Lisa Edwards from Photo Bacon, and I created The Profitable Mini Session Formula because I know that photographers want an easy to follow game plan to generate income quickly when they see a slow week or month “gap” on their calendar, instead of trying 731 bazillion new marketing techniques.
