Hello Dear, how are you? I visited your UA-cam channel and found that your videos content is very good, but your channel has very few subscribers, there are many videos but very few views, then I researched as a UA-cam SEO specialist and found that you are your You have spent a lot of time on the channel but you are not getting the results you expected, the reason is that your channel has no video SEO, there are video tags, no ranked tags, no end screen, videos without ranked tags do not come up in UA-cam search, and views increase, subscribers and does not grow Your channel is not growing due to many other problems. I have been working on your channel for the past 4 years, and from that experience I can say that if you don't address the above issues, you will never get the desired results from your channel. And that's why I give you the knock so that you can take your channel far and get the results you want. If you want to understand the problem better, we can do a zoom meeting. I can explain to you all your problems and how to solve them. Thank you.
Great pod guys! Your work at Mosaic Studio is on point! (Overpricing the market is what we do btw! ahah)
Thanks so much! Ive checked out the work you are doing, SOOO nice!!!!!! Keep killing it!!
Great content! Really trying to up our video game and this was bang on!
So glad you liked it!! Hope it will be helpful, and would love to hear about how things progress for you with upping the video game!!
First 🎉
Yes. Love to see the training video
Thanks so much for commenting. We are now offering a social media content calendar Bundle for 2025 but this one is still in the works. We also launched our Headshots course for bridging the gap through slow season. You can check out those here in case either might be helpful. Plus once this course is launch it will be on the Grow site as well. www.growwithrachandneal.com/Happy Early new year to you!! Hope its a great one!! -Neal
29:40 on instagram you press professional dashboard and scroll down to the bottom. Yw in advance ha ha
Pushing reels has been my #1 priority this year. It’s helped immensely with the bottom line. - Rachel, please share that training video you mention.
Glad to hear reels have been helpful for you. Way to get after it. Thats amazing!! We are now offering a social media content calendar Bundle for 2025 but this one is still in the works.

What app to download onto your phone?
DM’d you on IG😊
I listened to that book via Audiobook (Donald Miller - Building a Story Brand) and he does a great job going in depth on all of the steps and how he came up with the 7 elements. Definitely worth a read!!
Really great book, I think all business owners should give it a listen (or read:-)
Hey guys, can you lead me in the right direction for finding someone to help with photo delivery/basic VA work? Thank you! Love the show!
I found my VA/Admin on www.onlinejobs.ph/ There are VA' working out of the Philippines. Rach may have some additional options to help in the near future as well. Thanks, and apologies for missing this comment before.
Hey guys, your thumbnail for this episode has a typo. It says "Partnter".
Thanks Martin!!
Appreciate it :-) All fixed. :-)
This was helpful AND amusing! Ty I have been struggling to figure out booking. HDPH seems confusing but I’m going to dive into their videos this weekend.
Haha glad it was amusing and helpful !! The set up is the tricky part but hdphotohub has very responsive support so I would definitely ask them for help to set things up for the way your biz works. I've both called emailed and used the message option for their support and always had a good experience. Best of luck!!
I got my own website is there a way to integrate this into it. Or will i need to create a new website with them?
Most likely you can integrate it. I use wix and added it into my website. Now there is a button on all my website pages that says "book media services/Login." That button brings them to their hdphotohub portal to login and book services. It all depends on your website but I'm guessing it's possible for most websites like wix and square space etc. You should rech out to support for your website and or hdph to get some help for your specific scenario. There are most likely many ways to accomplish it and support will have the best resources and knowledge to help your specific scenario. Let us know how it works out for you. Thanks so much!
Enjoyed the podcast but sense something contradictory by Rachael. She acknowledges that people hate it when you fly over their property, and she would personally hate it if someone flew over hers. Well then you shouldn't do it or at least obtain permission.
Pretty new to REP but already very affriciative to what HDPH has to offer.. great customer support!
I've had the same experience. Very responsive and helpful. Glad to hear its going well. Let us know if you would like to hear anything specific for getting going in REP for future episodes. Any questions?
@@shootingthewithrachaelannnneal Thank you for the offer. As a new REF, finding new clients is probably the most interesting. I need to go through the rest of the episodes.. you probably talked about it in the past.. thanks!
great episode everyone!
Thanks so much!
Last I looked that Chrome Plugin to pull in the data, doesn't work.
What was the plugin called?
Dem Thirsty Batteries will get yah one day if you are not organized. I should know...been there, done that...was sooo embarrassing😢
Outsourcing has been the secret sauce of my business 🎉
It certainly doesn't hurt :-) Really cool Soccer photos by the way!!!
I'm setting my acct. up. Stressful 😢, but ill eatch the videos for guidance
Are you mostly set up now? Going well? Hope the episode was helpful.
Good Episode. How can I get the list of learning resources that Austin referenced?
Thanks Linda!! I'm checking with Austin and will follow up. Thanks!
Hey again Linda. Austin just send over some great resources. I'm adding this information to the episode details. Thanks for mentioning this!!
Around here (Montreal, Canada), most real estate photographers actually fly without any license... They use mini drones, which are pretty much free for all here 😞 - In my book, a mini drone should not be allowed for commercial purposes. (anyway, cool episode once again) - Matt
Oh very Interesting. I remember hearing that Canada had come up with what sounded like some very restrictive commercial drone regulations. Are people using the mini drones as a loop hole to get around those regulations? If so I wonder if that will lead to further restrictions. Interesting. Thanks so much for sharing.
😣 'PromoSM'
Super helpful info, thanks!
Thanks so much. Glad it was helpful. Let us know if there's something you want to hear about in a future episode. Thanks!
I have found my people! Wow I love this podcast and the fact that you guys talked in depth about this software is quite remarkable!
So glad you found it helpful!!! 😀
That hamster story is so gross. lol. Thank you for sharing though. Sad but funny.
Hahahaha. Super gross!!
Seems like a much better price than Aryeo. Can it host your own business website?
Im not sure about that. Id reach out and ask them help.hdphotohub.com/ and ask. I have a website through wix and have a button on all my pages for redirecting them to book via HDPH and it redirects them to that page.
@@shootingthewithrachaelannnneal did you figure it out. I got mu own website and I wonder the same?
Most likely you will want to integrate hdph into your site as a piece or within it if that makes sense. I use wix and added hdph into my website. Now there is a button on all my website pages that says "book media services/Login." That button brings them to their hdphotohub portal to login and book services. It all depends on your website but I'm guessing it's possible for most websites like wix and square space etc. You should rech out to support for your website and or hdph to get some help for your specific scenario. There are most likely many ways to accomplish it and support will have the best resources and knowledge to help your specific scenario. Let us know how it works out for you. Thanks so much!
@shootingthewithrachaelannnneal thank you I made it work. On my wordpress website just added the order form to every book now button.
@@Samenusa awesome, glad you got it it to work!!!
Enjoyed it!
Thank you!
Hi There, when you upload your images to HDPH, what export settings do you use in terms of dimensions and pixels?
I upload full size. When the client downloads HDphotohub give them 2 options to download and one is MLS size. This way if they need to print they can also download the print size option.
Omg get a gas key for fireplaces when you have a night shoot and you kicked the sellers out and you can’t find one…
Smart!!! :-)
🤣🤣🤣100% ADHD right here! Its so true
Hahahaha...the sign of a true artist :-) 😀 😃 🙂
Any else love the Amaran 200x video light? Prefer something wise? Do tell!!!
YES and this episode was great. thank you
Thank you!!
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thanks so much!
Hey guys! Love the content you are providing in these podcasts. I am seriously looking at getting into RE photography and working on setting up the business side of things. I would be interested in hearing about the operating costs that you had at startup / have now. Like all of the little things that come out of the revenue of each shoot. Looking forward to more content!
Thanks Adrian. Great idea and good timing as I'm working on taxes and have to list all the expenses anyway. I'll chat with Rach and see what we can come up with for some content about this. Thanks so much!
Great episode. Just getting into it but I can't wait to finish it. Thanks for posting.
Awesome, and now we just added the bonus after hours episode with more of Austin. He had so much great info!! Hope you love it!
7 min in! Already awesome tip don’t know how many times a client has tried to get a rush job done and I accepted knowing that it was going to be sub par compared to if I had those extra resources in place for myself.
Guys now 20min in! One of the best episodes already👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏼🙌🏼
@@mossmediaco Awesome! Glad you found some good info
How do y'all go about collecting the sale taxes in HDPhoto hub? I know we can set it, but after the client has paid the invoice, then what? Thanks!
Hey Zach I don't have sales tax in NH so I luckily don't deal with it. I'll see if Rach has thoughts...
OK so I found there are several ways to deal with taxes in HDphotohub. Here is a link. Also to the right column you should see a few other links if this one isn't exactly what you are looking for. Hope its helpful! help.hdphotohub.com/support/solutions/articles/69000813067-sales-tax-may-2022
@@shootingthewithrachaelannnneal Thanks!!
Peter coulson has a lot of excellent youtube videos on lighting
Yeah you are right. I have seen a bunch of his work. Very nice! Good recommendation!
Is Rachel’s chair broken?😂
Great way to meditate…if you have a gym with a sauna…highly recommend
Sounds delightful!!!
Is there any way of knowing if you missed a booking? ie. agent logs in cant get the time they want and leave w/o booking anything. This would be good to know for a follow up call
Hey Andrew.I don't currently know of a way(Rach may...)However I have some ideas if this is a problem you are facing. 1. my wix website allows me to have a bot pop up window. One thought is you could have a proactive auto message pop-up letting them know to reach out should they have an issue. Also maybe an email of occaisional social post getting the message across that the booking platform is for ease of use but they are still welcome to reach out directly should they not find a convenient time. Just a few thoughts off the top of my head. I'll ask Rach too she may have other solutions.
@@shootingthewithrachaelannnneal just curious. Im not shooting professionally yet, just trying to get my sh!t together. Soon though. Thanks
Lamborghini does make an suv…..just sayin 😂
Legit!!!!!!!
Lambo would be an excellent commuter car 😮
1000% no issues with pot holes or snow either :-)
Thank you good info.
You are very welcome. I'm really glad it was helpful! Let us know if there is any content/topics you would like to hear more about. Thanks!!
Love the show. You guys need more subs and more views because this is very relative. Make sure to put plenty of tags for your vids guys. Really helps to get it out there. Thanks for posting.
Thanks so much!! We are really glad you like the show. Please pass the word along and share with any colleagues you think might like it as well. Wed truly appreciate it. Yes, Its actually in our to do list to take a closer look and see what is and isn't workign and enhance those tags to get more traction. Thanks you !
@@shootingthewithrachaelannnneal Absolutely! You must get those tags right!! If it wasn't for the PMRE conference, I never would have found you guys. Your channel deserves more subs and more views.
Wishing Everyone a Fantastic new year for both your business and family. Happy New Year!!!
Happy new year Neal! :-)
Hey guys, if you use HD Photo Hub for delivery, they have the ability to send out reminder emails to your agents anywhere from a few hours before to 4 weeks out. Rachel, on your reels, are you adding music to them or providing a silent version and letting your customer add their own music in Instagram?
Hey Paul, Thanks .The reels that we make for our clients have music on them already. They're edited to the beat of the music. Hope that helps. Thank you!
