We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Crystal Lawburgh a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Crystal, thanks for joining us today. What do you think it takes to be successful?
I think that being self motivated and loving what you do are a couple of things needed to be successful. I also think that customer service and organization skills are extremely important when you are an entreprenuer.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
I’ve been a mom for over 10 years, and my kids were the reason I became a photographer. It started just as a hobby to document all of life’s special moments, but that hobby became a very real passion. The satisfaction photography gave me as a mom wasn’t something I expected. Seeing my kids’ laughs and smiles all captured professionally on camera, and being able to add them to the decor in my home. It felt like I was giving my family something priceless you can’t get anywhere else. And that’s because it was—you can’t relive the special moments, but you sure can get close. That’s what good photography does. It helps you relive the best chapters of your life,
Any stories or insights that might help us understand how you’ve built such a strong reputation?
I pride myself on making my clients happy and building a personal connection with them. They are not just dollar signs in my eyes or a number, they are real people who I want to get to know and understand their wishes for their session. I enjoy building relationships with them and this helps me to provide the best client experience possible.
What’s worked well for you in terms of a source for new clients?
Word of mouth! I keep my clients happy and in turn they tell all their friends and family about me. They are free marketing and the best kind at that.
