Empowering Volume Photographers with Emily Davis

What would it take to grow your photography business to 21 times its current size? Join PhotoDay Ambassador Rocky Thompson of SplitRock Photography for a practical look at how photographers can build a scalable volume photography business—whether you’re starting with a few shoots a year or already feeling the limits of running everything yourself. Rocky will share the strategies that helped SplitRock grow from a one-person operation into a multi-employee studio in just six years. You’ll learn how to replace time-consuming manual processes, create workflows that can support increasing volume, recognize when it’s time to hire, and evolve from working in your business to building a business that can grow beyond you. You’ll also hear the lessons Rocky learned along the way, including what he would do differently and the challenges photographers should prepare for as their studio expands. If you want to book more organizations, operate more efficiently, and build a photography business capable of supporting a full-time team, this webinar will help you identify your next steps.
