<p><em><strong>5 Tips for Building Your Business Using Facebook Contests:</strong></em> Finding new clients can be a difficult task when you&#8217;re building up your business. The best advice I can give photographers who may be at the start of their journey is to offer a Freebie Shoot. Two years into my business- during a lull in scheduling, I posted a Giveaway Contest on <a href="http://www.artsycouture.com/blog/instagram-tips-for-photographers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Facebook</a>.  All people had to do was leave their name &amp; email.  This practice is also an easy way to build your email marketing list, so even if they don’t win the giveaway, you have access to a new group of high-value individuals to market to for future shoots.  I had multiple people enter and I randomly picked one for a newborn shoot. <span class="post-teaser-more">&nbsp;<a href="https://www.artsycouture.com/blog/5-tips-building-business-facebook" title="Permanent Link: 5 Tips to Build Your Business on Facebook" rel="bookmark">Continue Reading</a></span></p>{"id":2999,"date":"2017-10-11T15:45:17","date_gmt":"2017-10-11T15:45:17","guid":{"rendered":"http:\/\/www.artsycouture.com\/blog\/?p=2999"},"modified":"2018-01-18T12:45:13","modified_gmt":"2018-01-18T17:45:13","slug":"5-tips-building-business-facebook","status":"publish","type":"post","link":"https:\/\/www.artsycouture.com\/blog\/5-tips-building-business-facebook","title":{"rendered":"5 Tips to Build Your Business on Facebook"},"content":{"rendered":"<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3012\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/artsy-cdn\/static\/assets\/img\/wordpress-artifacts\/2017\/10\/11151905\/Untitled-design-1.jpg\" alt=\"KMW-Blog-Banner\" width=\"629\" height=\"354\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/artsy-cdn\/static\/assets\/img\/wordpress-artifacts\/2017\/10\/11151905\/Untitled-design-1.jpg 560w, https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/artsy-cdn\/static\/assets\/img\/wordpress-artifacts\/2017\/10\/11151905\/Untitled-design-1-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 629px) 100vw, 629px\" \/><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1>Author: Kate Marie Warch, Pro Photographer<\/h1>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>5 Tips for Building Your Business Using Facebook Contests:<\/strong><\/em> Finding new clients can be a difficult task when you&#8217;re building up your business.
