NEVER MISS AN EPISODE: CLICK HERE TO SUBSCRIBE
Today’s guest isn’t a specialist pet photographer, but she is running a successful marketing campaign that we could all take inspiration from. I invited her on the show thinking that her Heart Horses project would be the focus of the episode and while we did dive into that, she also shared so much more.
I’m talking about Bethany Quinn who got super honest about burnout, trying new things, and what’s worked (and what hasn’t) in her business over the last 10+ years and how she is consistently booking clients who spend anywhere from $3500 to 10k.
There’s a ton of good stuff in this one—let’s get into it!

From volunteering at fun horse shows to running a profitable photography business
How the “Heart Horses” project helped Bethany find her niche
