"Social Success Strategies contains clear advice and instruction of how to set-up on the various Social Media sites. Talks about the good and bad parts of each. Why you need them, why you don't, how to connect some of them. Untangles the muddle of so many different sites. It focuses on the big ones, which a lot of people already use, but streamlines each for a photographer's angle."

There’s never been a more competitive time to build a following for your photography.
It’s a crowded market. It only takes five minutes for an average photographer to set up a page on Instagram... Facebook… 500px...
And the worst part is that your raw talent won’t help you get ahead.
I know, because I’ve met dozens of talented photographers who struggle to find a following online.
They set up their profiles with the best intentions, but without a strategy... they struggle to get any traction.
It’s usually not long before they stop posting entirely.

The truth is, in the world of social media, it’s strategy (not talent) that gets you ahead.
The most successful photographers know this, and they use it to find success every day.
It’s the same problem whether you’re a photographer, artist, actor, or musician… you’ll struggle to be seen online, without the right strategy.
Allow me to state the obvious: The role of social media marketing is to get your work seen.
This will allow you to sell prints, sessions, workshops, or exhibition tickets… it’s up to you.
But great photos and good intentions are not enough.
Not only do you need an effective strategy… but you need one for every platform.
Because a potential client or follower that finds you on Instagram, probably isn’t looking for you on LinkedIn.
If you want to reach everyone, you have to have a presence everywhere.

Our readers started asking for more in-depth advice on social media. So I reached out to one of the most diversely successful photographers I know, Nick Dale.
I went to him because he not only has well over 10,000 followers on Instagram... but a strong presence on Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, 500px and LinkedIn too.
But like all successful people, Nick made his share of mistakes when he started. To find success, he learned from (and overcame) them.
And now he uses his social media following to build legions of new fans, sell his prints, and fill his exhibitions. And now he teaches others how to do the same.
I gave him this brief: “Show photographers how to build a following online. With a detailed strategy that takes no more than 30 minutes per week.”
This 155-page ebook walks you through the process of building your online following.
This includes setting up accounts on each platform, competitor research, and organic strategies.
It doesn’t matter if you shoot portraits, landscapes, wildlife, or street... The advice in this ebook applies to all forms of photography.
With “Social Success Strategies”, you’ll soon discover:
Dozens of creative ways to attract followers to your social media profiles
Highly-engaging post ideas that get shared frequently (and when to post them)
The five-step process for a perfect IG post, covering everything from the title to hashtags
Social media tools that allow you to schedule a week of content in 30 minutes
A simple way to have your portfolio seen by 140,000+ people a month
How to set up your profiles so that your content is easy to find and share (across 8 networks)
Our editorial team have worked with Nick to ensure the ebook is both specific and actionable.
There’s no filler text, no out-dated advice, and you don’t have to buy any other products to get real value.
And these methods are relevant even if you only want to spend 30 minutes a week on them.
With Nick's social blueprint for success, you have everything you need to get started.
You can read the ebook in an afternoon and start growing your following right away.
When you follow Nick's advice you'll be able to:

This is a fantastic ebook. I like the fact that the book is comprehensive, and, like Josh’s video courses, is presented in such a way that it provides good, understandable information, without being “professorial”. By this, I mean that it’s clear that the author thoroughly “gets” photography, and presents it in such a way that we “get” it too.

Without me stumbling across your website and taking a chance and spending what little time I have, I would not have the smile I do today. I wouldn’t be up/active early in the mornings and taking photography as seriously as I do now, and I’d still be in a deep depression. I want to say THANK YOU for helping me get my life back.
Instagram is the most powerful platform for photographers, but it’s also the most crowded.
The good news is that most photographers don’t know what they’re doing. And if you can use some of our techniques around using hashtags… tags… stories… you’ll soon find yourself at the top of the discover page.
We break down how the IG algorithm works so that you can use it to your advantage.
This is often the first place people go to check a business’ contact details, reviews, and events.
But the difference between existing and thriving on Facebook comes down to the engagement you have.
You see, Facebook doesn’t often give engagement away for free anymore. They want you to pay for it. But if you follow our simple strategies, you can grow your fans without paying a cent.
Pinterest is a powerful content discovery platform. And we've used it for years to drive hundreds of thousands of visitors to our website.
Nick covers his low-effort approach to create engaging pins. As well as how to generate repins, and quickly drive viral traffic to his website. And his pins often receive 100k+ viewers a month.
Boards should be arranged to include your best photos (or even just photos you like) based on the type of shot.
Nick organises his into continents for his wildlife photography... a wedding photographer might organise their boards into shots like the first dance or the bouquet toss.
It allows you easily display your portfolio on a platform that's built for discovery. And you can even piggyback on group boards to get your work seen more often.
LinkedIn is all business. And, believe it or not, some people use this as their primary social network.
It’s where professionals expand their network and it’s another place where you can improve your social proof.
We breakdown everything you need to know to grow a presence on LinkedIn. From building genuine connections to using groups to find followers.
Twitter is unlike any other platform on this list. Your posts are limited by character count, and will quickly get lost in the feed.
But this isn’t a bad thing.
The purpose of Twitter is to be conversational and grow genuine connections. Often with people you wouldn’t usually come into contact with.
This means you can post more frequently, a show a side of yourself that others may not see otherwise.
And of course, there are strategies for building your following and promoting your work too.
If you want to start building your social media account, but feel daunted by the work ahead... don't be. This is going to help.
I sat down with my designer yesterday and we came up with a printable checklist.
These five checklists cover the most effective way to set up all of the social media accounts covered above.
From choosing the right name through to publishing your first post.
...Everything you need to get started with social media.
Instagram is the primary platform for many photographers, so we wanted to break down the different aspects of a perfect post.
This includes everything from the image size and description… to hashtags and tagging.
If you follow this simple checklist for every post you publish, you maximise the chances of your images being discovered.
As Nick was finishing the ebook, he felt something was missing…
He had an idea for three crucial chapters that didn’t fit into the original outline.
So, he pitched them to me, and I loved them.
They cover the three most popular platforms for photographers: 500px, Flickr & YouTube
While not technically social media, Nick has used these platforms to have his photos seen 250,000+ times.
If you’re trying to get your work seen, these are great platforms to help grow your following.
Our 250,000+ customers love our courses and we're confident you'll love them too. So confident, in fact, that we're offering these two industry-leading guarantees.
Guarantee #1: If you don't think "Social Success Strategies" is the best money you've spent on your social media... send me an email. I'll provide you with a full refund – no questions asked.

Nick wrote this ebook under my brief:
“Show photographers how to build a following online. With a detailed strategy that takes no more than 30 minutes per week.”
If you follow his advice, you can avoid mistakes, save time, and find success sooner.
So it’s decision time: You can either go out on your own and learn from your own mistakes... or decide today that you’re going to learn from the mistakes of others.
Because if you don’t seek guidance, you will make mistakes, and waste time and money... in areas you haven’t even thought of yet.
You could go out and try this on your own. But can you imagine how much faster and easier it is when you follow a proven system?
This simple $19 eBook is the only thing standing between you and the success you want to achieve.
Nick's methods have worked for other people like you, and it’s 200% guaranteed so you can’t lose money.
It’s a no brainer. The choice is yours.
