Creating connections with clients is a big part of sales for photographers. So what do you do if your clients aren’t local and you have to do a remote reveal? We asked portrait photographer Nikki Closser how she handles it.
Nikki told us that since remote clients can’t get the tactile sensation of holding their printed photos, she likes to use a video slideshow instead. “When clients don’t have the ability to touch the photos and hold them, what I do have is music and beautiful imagery to evoke emotion and get them excited and just really make it an experience. So Animoto helps me do that. I don’t know what I would do without it to be honest.”
Those client videos continue to help Nikki connect with new clients after the reveal session is over by posting them online. In fact, her last video got her 5,000 views on Facebook and helped her book three clients in less than two weeks.
Nikki shared a few of the tips she’s developed for creating beautiful reveal slideshows that drive sales, and how to use those slideshows to create business. Check them out here.
