Where are all the photography clients?

Are you just starting out in your photography business? Or have you been in business for a while but you are still struggling to find clients? Believe me friend, you are not alone. There are times it just seems like there are no clients out there and if they are, they are like Pokemon, and they just refuse to get inside of the Pokeball. (Please excuse the Pokemon reference.. this is all the rage in my house right now.) It can leave you frustrated and wondering if you are even really cut out to be a full time photographer. How do I know you ask? Well because I am right there with you my friend!

I have been in business for a few years and I have struggled from time to time. The last few years I have struggled the most. I was doing well at my previous location, but when I had to relocate and start all over, it has not gone well. I believe part of that is because I no longer live in a tourist location, however it just seems that I am no longer able to get my name out there. I have tried the Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Thumbtack, and even advertising at a few local stores, however it just seems to not be working. I am slowly beginning to think that there are no clients out there for me at the moment.

Have you ever had that feeling? I understand that the market is EXTREMELY saturated with other photographers. Pretty much anyone that has a camera believes that they are a photographer anymore which makes it even more difficult for people like me and people like you, but there has to be an answer right? There has to be a way to break through and shine above the rest in order to get the ball rolling again.
