Colie James (Business First Creatives) shares tips for booking more clients with a simple (yet wildly effective!) two-step process.

Lisa DiGeso (The Milky Way) talks about strategies for managing your time and creating the work/life balance that you've always wanted. Natalie Jennings (Photo Biz Help) pulls back the curtain on tips & tricks to use Pic-Time that will improve your workflow and knock your client's socks off.  And finally, Annemie Tonken (This Can't Be That Hard) shares the brilliance of using a "Back Pocket Offer" to give your revenue a boost this year... even in a slow economy!
