Stress is one of those things that can take the joy out of your photography career, but implementing good systems can help reduce it. Nobody understands systems as well as Dahlia Orth, and today she joins us on the show to geek out about how they have changed her life and how she can use them to help change yours. Dahlia is a photographer and systems specialist who has helped countless photographers get their life back through setting up systems and workflows that take away their stress. We talk to Dahlia about the stress she felt when her business started to grow and how implementing systems changed everything for her. Having learned the hard way, Dahlia made it her mission to help others so they did not have to do the same and she tells us all about the different photographers she has assisted, the specific needs they had, and the amazing transformations they underwent afterward. We touch on some great workflow automation software, the main differences between them, and how they can help you get out of the trenches of endless emails and invoices. Dahlia also talks about the exciting new services she is working on, including a two-week signature program where she sets up custom systems for photographers called Ticket To Freedom. Tune in and learn all about the power of systems and how Dahlia can help you claim back your precious time by using them!
