Well its almost here. What are you guys/gals doing to promote to future clients??? Share your creative ideas.

We made a Facebook flyer and had these printed u and posted them at hair salons and gift shops around our areas.

What are you doing?

I did a pin up party (1940's style boudoir) on 1/9/11. I had 10 gals sign up. It was a blast.

I wasn't thinking of doing anything, but I had an idea I may do if I have time. I had a lady comment on my fan page that she LOVED my stuff and couldn't wait to get married so I could take her pictures, but that she needed a boyfriend first or come up with some other excuse for pics.

I told her thank you of course, and then added, she could always get, "I can get pictures for no reason at all except that I (being her) am awesome." I was mostly joking but then she wrote back and said something like, "you know, you are right! I had a life event that nearly broke my spirit awhile back. I think this is just what I need!"

So, I was thinking of doing an almost ANTI-vtines sale for ladies to just get their pictures done ALONE. Kinda modely looking type shots based more on fashion than boudoir (or boudoir if they want). I'm not against v-tines, but I thought it would be a good time to do something for those peeps that don't necessarily have someone to get pics taken with....

I'm rattling... LOL

Love the ANTI-vtines!! When I was a divorced single mom I would have been ALL over that one!
