Episode 344 – The Lie of “Just Be Consistent”: Marketing Advice I Wish I'd Questioned Sooner We've all heard it: “Just be consistent.” It sounds helpful. Harmless. Even wise. But what if that well-meaning advice is leading you to burnout, bland marketing, and busywork with zero results? In this episode of the Small Business Made Simple Podcast, I'm busting one of the biggest marketing myths out there—that consistency alone is the magic fix for your business visibility. (Spoiler: it's not.) If you're posting daily, showing up in stories, emailing your list religiously—and still wondering “Why isn't this working?”—this one's for you. Inside this episode: ✅ Why consistency without clarity leads to chaos ✅ The difference between strategy and survival posting ✅ What I wish I'd been told about content, messaging, and momentum ✅ How to reset your marketing to be consistent with purpose ✅ Three practical ways to make your marketing work harder (and feel lighter) ✨This is your permission slip to pause, rework what isn't landing, and stop creating just for the sake of showing up. You'll walk away with a refreshed view on consistency—one that's aligned, strategic, and sustainable. Because being consistent should support your business, not drain it.

Before you invest in that high-ticket mastermind or coaching program promising $10K clients right out the gate—listen to this episode.We're pulling back the curtain on the hype and talking about what actually builds a sustainable photography business. Because while marketing might land you one big win, it's your skills, systems, and humility that determine whether you can keep going.In this episode, I break down:Why slow, intentional growth sets you up for long-term successThe value of second shooting, assisting, and real-world experienceHow to spot educators who are great at marketing—but missing the depth in technical or posing skillsThe danger of comparison culture and rushing into high-price points too soonAnd the powerful shift that happens when you quiet your ego and commit to masteryIf you've ever felt behind because you're not charging luxury prices yet—or pressured to “level up” before you're ready—this conversation will ground you.

Trade-for-print (TFP) shoots can be an excellent way to build your portfolio, collaborate with models, and refine your creative style. However, without a structured approach, TFP shoots can quickly become frustrating, unorganized, and a waste of time. Many photographers experience flaky models, last-minute cancellations, or misunderstandings about how many images will be delivered.The key to a successful TFP shoot is treating it just as professionally as a paid session—with clear expectations, organized communication, and structured boundaries.In this photography podcast episode, I will share the exact step-by-step system I use to run TFP shoots efficiently and professionally, so you can get high-quality results without dealing with unreliable people.This episode will cover:Why I never post model calls on Instagram (and where I find reliable models instead)How to set clear expectations upfront to avoid misunderstandingsHow over-communicating prevents cancellations and gets models to take the shoot seriouslyHow to structure a TFP workflow from model booking to final image deliveryHow to avoid last-minute cancellations and no-showsThe boundaries I set to prevent burnout and protect my timeBy following these steps, you will eliminate stress, work with dependable models, and create stunning images without frustration.Honeybook: https://share.honeybook.com/Jessicawhttps://aftershoot.com/jessica-whitaker/⁠What's Next:Follow me on Insta: ⁠https://instagram.com/jessicawhitaker⁠Join the Facebook group: ⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/buildandbloomjessicawhitaker⁠Business Basics: ⁠https://www.jessicawhitaker.co/businessbasics⁠
