NEW! Organic Marketing Collection {Photography Marketing & Branding}

Since the Goldapple Photography Premier Marketing Kit was released, it has been the number one product in the LPD Shoppe, and I have received NUMEROUS emails from photographers all over the world about the kit, about branding, about how to market, etc. I knew branding and marketing was a hot topic for photogs, but WOW, have I been overwhelmed with the response I have received! Branding is such an important step for new business owners, and so I am working on creating very customized and beautifully branded marketing kits! This first kit to be released is the Organic Marketing Collection – and it really is deeply organic in the way it has been designed. The elements are fresh, and the colors have an organic feel to them. The kit itself includes:

-Business Card(front and back) (ProDPI)
-2010 Calender
-Copyright Sticker
-Special Occasion Gift Certificate (WHCC)
-Investment Card (ProDPI)
-Session Type Card (ProDPI)
-Notepad (VistaPrint)
-Post-it (VistaPrint)
-Referral Card (WHCC)
-Referral Rep Card (front and back) (WHCC)
-Shipping Label
-Custom CD Case (MpixPro)
-Custom DVD (MpixPro)

Each file is the unflattened .psd and you can completely customize the kit if you need to change the colors or the fonts to match any current branding. It is the perfect starting kit for those who may not have a brand or marketing kit yet.

And for those loyal followers of the blog, until the end of June (June 30), use the coupon code ORGANIC30 for 30% off your purchase of the Organic Marketing Collection!

Happy Mother’s Day from LPD!

Happy Mother’s Day! I’m not a mother to anyone except my puppy and kitty, but I know so many of you are mothers – and I am constantly in awe of you. How you run a photography business and raise your children amazes me, and I can’t even fathom doing it. I run around like a mad woman trying to run my businesses now, and its just me and my husband! Throw a couple kids in there, and I just think I might just have to become Superwoman to handle it all. So, hats off to all you moms today – enjoy 50% off in the LPD Shoppe as my way of tipping my hat to you. And if you didn’t know, every $10 purchase you make counts as an entry into the AWESOME giveaway of Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended!
