Today we welcome Kristen from Gracefully Nested to talk to us about decluttering! This conversation is packed with helpful tips so that your decluttering sessions can be efficient and long-lasting! Tried and True Best Practices: Decluttering is the most important thing when it comes to getting organized because you can't organize all the things until you get rid of the excess things. It just takes baby steps. Thinning your life is huge. It helps the day go more smoothly. The truth about extra things, even if you think they aren't bothering you, is that they can trigger you by making you feel overwhelmed. Decluttering doesn't just happen once. Kristen declutters her home about 6 times a year. You don't need to save, as a mom, every drawing your kid ever presents you. Give yourself permission to let lots of it go. Having a drop zone for your shoes and things that you need multiple times a day is huge. Decluttering will save you time because you're not looking through the drawer of 10 spatulas for the one you actually like. Try not to let your garage be the place where things go to die. Don't let returns become clutter. Get your money back! If your pantry is organized, you will save time and money by not buying groceries you already have. The first step to decluttering: you need to take everything out and group it. Measure the spaces where you're trying to organize so you can buy bins and shelves that actually fit in the space. Label your bins and baskets. When you have less stuff to clean, you'll have more time because you're cleaning less. Never look at the whole room because you'll shut down and leave. Instead, take a basket and dump it out on the ground. Take out everything you don't need and get rid of those things. If you find something that belongs somewhere else, don't go and try to organize that problem area. Just put it in that room and make a plan to work on that room another day.     Connect with Brittnie: Website: https://brittnierenee.com/photographers Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brittnierenee_co/ Capture The Chaos Planner: https://brittnierenee.com/planner-collection Use code: PODCAST15 for 15% off your planner order Leave a Voice Message:https://www.speakpipe.com/capturethechaospodcast Facebook Community  Listen to more episodes of the Capture the Chaos podcast!

Importance of Consistent Instagram and SEO In today's digital age, newborn and birth photographers should not underestimate the power of a consistent social media presence, particularly on Instagram, and a robust SEO strategy. Instagram offers a visual platform where photographers can showcase their work, engage with potential clients, and build a strong brand image. Supplementing this with a strong SEO approach ensures the business website ranks well on search engines, enhancing visibility, and attracting more organic traffic. Effective Blogging and SEO Strategies Blogging should not be viewed as optional or ancillary in the digital marketing strategy of newborn and birth photography businesses. Regular, engaging blog posts not only help businesses connect with their audience but also significantly boost SEO, improving the website's ranking on search engines. Incorporating SEO strategies such as location-specific keywords and backlinks can make the blogs more discoverable and increase the likelihood of attracting potential clients. Transitioning from Facebook Groups While Facebook groups may have been a useful tool to gather clients initially, birth and newborn photographers need to diversify their online presence.

It offers a sense of structure, helping us allocate time efficiently and prioritize tasks effectively. In other words, adopting a routine encourages discipline, fosters focus, and augments our overall well-being. Discover the Power of Routine The strength of routine lies in its ability to transform our daily lives incrementally. It starts with small actions—putting toothbrushes in a holder, doing a load of laundry daily, or simply shutting off phones at a specific time. All these micro-changes can, over time, evolve into powerful habits and drastically improve our productivity. Handle Unexpected Challenges Adopting a routine can empower us to face unexpected hurdles with less panic and more poise. When things go awry, like missing an essential detail at work, instead of panicking, we can rely on our routine to provide a sense of normalcy and control.

If you're feeling overwhelmed and frustrated by constantly juggling multiple tasks and deadlines, then you are not alone! Despite your best efforts to stay organized, you may find yourself struggling to manage your time effectively, leading to decreased productivity and increased stress. Instead of achieving the desired result of increased productivity and organization, you may be experiencing decision fatigue and a lack of clarity in prioritizing tasks. Highlights in this episode: Discover how time blocking can turbo-charge your productivity and keep your life organized. Unravel the art of balancing priorities by distinguishing between glass and plastic balls in life. Learn to create a customized time blocking schedule for efficient management of daily activities. Acquire the knack of integrating new tasks into your established routine effortlessly. Appreciate the flexibility of time blocking and its benefits in various life situations.   Turbo-charge productivity and organization Time blocking holds the key to revolutionizing productivity, by splitting your day into structured, dedicated sections of activity. Its essence lies in targeting and reducing decision fatigue, which can often be the root cause of procrastination and under-productivity. With time blocking, each day is carefully organized and planned, allowing for prioritization of tasks and creating a sense of order which helps you make the most of your time. Balance priorities with glass and plastic balls The concept of glass and plastic balls provides a powerful analogy for balancing life and work priorities. Glass balls represent tasks that hold a high degree of importance and urgency - these are tasks you cannot afford to drop. On the other hand, the plastic balls symbolize tasks that carry less significance and can be set aside when times get busy. This strategy equips you with the discernment for prioritizing tasks according to their value and anticipated outcome. Devise a customized time blocking schedule Designing a time blocking strategy that fits your unique schedule and commitments is vital for leveraging its potential. This approach offers flexibility, as your blocks can vary from week to week, depending on your prioritized tasks and circumstances. Recognizing that routines can shift and change is important - by giving yourself the grace to adjust your schedule as required, you can create a time blocking system that best serves your individual needs.

Look no further - I have the solution that will enable you to attain a harmonious work-life equilibrium and create lasting memories with your family. Together, we will unlock the secret to a prosperous and sustainable photography career, all while maintaining precious family time. Highlights in this episode: Planning your fall photography calendar Avoid overbooking as a photographer Setting boundaries and sticking to them The importance of having a CRM Gain efficient productivity insights Managing one's schedule effectively is crucial for photographers, particularly during busy seasons. It's vital to establish clear boundaries, avoid becoming overbooked, and maintain a professional demeanor throughout. By investing in tools like a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system, photographers can streamline their booking process, keep track of crucial contracts, and project professionalism to attract quality clients. Create urgency for client bookings One of the strategies that successful photographers use is creating a sense of urgency. This can be achieved by limiting the number of sessions available and highlighting the chance of them filling up quickly. By doing this, potential clients are prompted to book their sessions earlier. Over time, this can train clients to anticipate high demand and schedule their sessions in advance. Juggle family and work effectively Balancing work and family life is perhaps one of the most challenging aspects for photographers, especially during the autumn season when the demand is typically high. Prioritizing family activities during the planning process can help ensure time is set aside for these important personal moments. Moreover, effective planning of the work schedule that includes downtime and personal breaks can help prevent burnout and contribute to a more sustainable, long-term business model.

This frequent activity tells search engines that your site is active, positively impacting your search ranking. Crafting Tailored Blog Content Creating tailor-made blog posts can effectively attract a photographer's target audience. For instance, a beach session specialist can write blogs that address potential client concerns like what to wear or how to deal with sand. Such posts not only highlight the photographer's expertise but also help to ease potential customer anxieties. Boosting Online Visibility and Engagement Photographers can boost their online visibility and engage more efficiently with their audience by repurposing content across different platforms. A great example is taking snippets from blog posts and pairing them with relevant images to share on social media. This method not only drives traffic to the photographer's website but also ensures consistent messaging across platforms.
