Keep It Moving

Between the two of them, Alison & Melissa have combined 27 years in photography, 10 years in IT and have lived through 9 business relocations.

Four moves ago Alison was frustrated watching peers grow their businesses in one place while she was starting from over again. She knew she couldn't be the only one relocating and wanting more financial stability. Despite Googling, all she could find were vague blog posts, moderately interesting podcasts but not one truly helpful resource on how to relaunch a business in a new city.

Since then, Alison has streamlined a process to relocate and restart my business faster - booking clients within a month of arriving in a her newest location. It is possible to have clients waiting for you on the other side! Alison can help get you there.

Melissa pivoted after 10 years as a wedding photographer to lifestyle newborns and then moved her photography business twice in 2 years. Each time she used SEO to get found on Google.

As a former IT nerd, Melissa has a knack for taking technical things and making them simple and relatable. She's using that superpower for good and helping photographers tackle their website SEO and get booked by their ideal clients!

We’ve coached each other through all this via Marco Polo and now we're bringing our Polos public!

On this podcast we’ll give you actionable steps to help keep you and your business moving.
