How can my business benefit from the Celebration of Families Event?
Most successful studios employ one or more charitable marketing strategies in support of worthwhile causes. Why? Here are just some of the reasons:
- Personal satisfaction from giving your time and talent to those in need.
- Increased business profits/goodwill because many consumers simply prefer to shop with a business that gives back to the community.
- Through Family Portrait Month, you make a verifiable difference in the lives of needy children. This is possible because Photographers for Charity combines your studio’s donations from Family Portrait Month with those of other P4C-member studios throughout the country, thus increasing your charitable power.
