This is a Quick Hit Podcast short. Today we’re going to talk to Marqueax Price of the LNT3 Group. We became acquainted with the firm as a result of interviewing Gail Nogle, our show that was released on Tuesday, April 13th. Since Gail was successfully using a PR firm, we thought it would make an interesting show for ALL photographers to hear about the value of that relationship from the PR firm’s side.

In this episode, Marqueax talks about her company, how a photographer can benefit from a PR Agency, how they approach strategy and positioning, what she thinks is the biggest challenge for photographers today, how they can strengthen and protect a photographers brand, what things cost, and much more. Listen to the full podcast interview, which is below.

I have a new Poll up that asks just this question. In order to make any blog successful, you need input from ‘the folks’. So, I went into TwtPoll to set one up. The only way to make it work, is to get as many people as possible to take it! So, here’s the link.

The idea is that I need help deciding WHO to interview, what CATEGORY that you are most interested in, and WHAT KIND of equipment, software, and other types of interviews you would like to see here. I’ve only done one Quick Hit Thursday interview, so it may not be easy to see where those are going. However, the one on the 23rd with Mike Wong of OnOne Software, should help you decide that area as well. He does a great job explaining the Canon software for the iPhone that lets you control your camera remotely! His interview is another example of what I THINK you want to hear, but unless you help out, I’m going to keep going down the current path.

Feel free to add comments to this post, or participate in the poll! I’ll have it up until the end of July and will then report the results in this section.
