Last month we wrote a piece about when to promote a facebook post which included a case study, and we mentioned that we would post a follow up with the results. For starters let’s just say the results were….. successful to a degree but also a little mixed and confusing. We spent $15 and it did seem to reach a lot of people. From that standpoint we feel like we got what we paid for, but there are plenty of […]
This is really a follow up post to “Restoring History” which focused on photo restoration. Here is a little social media strategy discussion – as of this writing the strategy for the “Restoring History” post is in a test mode as we speak, and hopefully we can get some results we can learn from as we go along…. The Option To Promote A Facebook Post For those who may not know, Facebook rolled out a new tool a few months […]
I wrote a guest post back in May for The Collective where I echoed the predominant thinking about how your blog (and website) should be the center of your online universe since you own them, as opposed to your pages on Facebook and Twitter that you don’t own. You don’t know what might happen with those sites and you can’t control it. Well something indeed happened to Facebook… Money changes everything. The short version is Facebook went public, it didn’t go […]
I spend a lot of time blogging and reading blogs and I want to highlight the photography blogs which I enjoy and/or learn the most from so you can bookmark them whether you are a professional photographer, a hobbyist, or just an enjoyist. Yes I think it’s fun to make up the occasional word now and then…. after all, I still want to make sure you have good organic reasons to visit our blog. Without further adieu and in no […]
In today’s world of social media and with the opportunities available for online networking and marketing, great professional headshots are more important than ever. So where do you start? How should you go about it? 7 Tips For Getting The Most From Professional Headshots: Go to a pro. Okay so we’ll admit that this tip is a little self serving – this is a blog for a professional photography studio after all… But whether you live in Metro Detroit and […]
I am all about practicing proper etiquette online. I am also all about being truthful. Somewhere in between I find it can get a little blurry. Trolls There has been much written about “trolls” – the Wikipedia definition of a troll is as follows: In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[3] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic […]
One of the themes we’ve tried to instill in our studio is that of community. We see Frameable Faces not just as the studio you can visit at the Orchard Mall, but as all of us – especially our clients who really are the Frameable Faces (or #Frameables as we like to tweet them). As our blog evolves and grows we thought it would be a splendid idea to get more of you involved and so the “Quest for […]
At Frameable Faces we spend a lot of time on social media and facebook in particular. Sure it’s primarily how we market our business and I personally spend a ton of time on the various platforms because I consult on on the side, but it also dominates much of the conversation with our clients in general because we post sneak peaks and/or video clips from the sessions on facebook, this blog, YouTube, even Google + a little, and we tweet as […]
So….. we had a meeting with my friend and new guru Melissa Brodsky this morning and I am very excited! You see, Missy is an incredible and very accomplished writer and blogger and she knows her way around social media. I’ve mentioned her blog www.rockanddrool.com before and if you don’t follow it then you can’t be my friend anymore. Okay maybe that was a little strong. But you really should check it out – it’s fantabulous. As most of you […]
