I loved it when you said you can’t relax after a hard day at work!😂 I laughed out loud! I’ve been working on my lunch break and after work and it just felt like you understood and have been where I am now!

[@ChrisPieta]

Keep pushing!

I'm binging all your product photography videos and they're very inspiring. Thanks for helping me get my creative spark back. I have my camera and I love it, I just lost my mojo there for a while. You must be from Chicago! I live in the northwest suburbs!

This video really hit home. I just gotta take action. I am currently also on a "comfortable" work from home 8-5 job but I feel I have more potential. But I struggle to wake up early before work and I also struggle to dedicate time to this after my job because I am too mentally exhausted. My photography is good enough to land some clients like you said, but is that inner voice that always scares you on reaching out to potential clients and landing some work.

[@ChrisPieta]

Once you start reaching out it gets easier. Build a habit of working for just 5 mins in the morning or evening. That 5 mins turns into hours over time.

Excellent video! This hit the nail on the head for me today.

Thanks for watching! I'm glad it resonated with you

Hi Chris Good information help me a lot. More videos like this please!! 👍🏾

[@ChrisPieta]

[@csongi.barabas]

I LOVE your videos! Your calmness, your detailed information, your deep knowledge! THANK you for taking your time for doing these!

[@ChrisPieta]

I really appreciate you watching! I make these to help others, thanks for the kind words!

[@kevin5121]

I think my coworkers were great as well ;) Really great to see how you were able to make a successful transition, and made sure you built a brand while working your 9-5 before you were comfortable enough to pursue it fulltime!

[@ChrisPieta]

That's awesome!

[@rudeboy447]

This was me exactly about 8 months ago.... Still in a 8-5 job but hoping to make the move soon.

[@ChrisPieta]

You got this! Work hard, work on the right things, and you'll be there

Hey Chris, great video! I really appreciate all the business advice. This is exactly the kind of content we need more of. I'm with you on working the process, but I'm having a hard time developing my list of 100 businesses to contact. What methods and sources do you recommend to find potential contacts?

[@ChrisPieta]

Hey! Thanks for watching. It really depends on your niche but for my niche (food+bev) these are resources I use. Let's say I want to find Matcha companies. Amazon - search matcha and make a list of all those matcha brands. Google - I like searching blogs for things like "top 10 matcha brands" LinkedIn Sales Navigator - expensive option but a good way to find the right people This should be a future video hmm

[@jslash1985]

@@ChrisPieta Thanks for responding so quickly! That's some great advice. I look forward to putting it into action and getting that first client. Keep up the good work. You're doing the community a great service sharing your knowledge. Much appreciated.

@@ChrisPieta hey Chris, have you tried using Google Ads for advertising? If yes, do you recommend it?

[@amakaa2393]

Hello Chris, what a useful video! Quick question, you said you received a few "nasty responses". Erm, do you have an example?? 😅

[@ChrisPieta]

I’ll leave that up to your imagination haha! Usually they’re nice 😊

[@gojoe36]

There is better way to get clients than EMAILS....try networking better 😉😎

[@ChrisPieta]

Definitely a good option but not as fast as email. A combination could be good! I’m teaching what worked for me :)
