I highly recommend Joy of Marketing 100% all the way!!! The team behind Joy of Marketing is absolutely amazing, they cheer you on every step of the way, guiding you towards achieving your goals/dreams of owning our own successful photography business. The free challenges are fun, and I continue to learn more from every challenge that I’ve joined especially this last one. Their courses Boutique Breakthrough and Peak Performance are definitely worth the investment and I plan on taking both as soon as I’m able to. 😁😁😁

Instrumental to my growing success as a photography business!

I attended Sarahs recent Go Boutique Live! event and was so jazzed on the third day that I signed up for Boutique Breakthrough Peak Performers Edition. I just wish I latched onto you amazing peeps earlier! Im three weeks in, Im making new friends and Im already starting to see results and more of the clients I want to serve! This training is worth every penny and the community here lifts everybody up! Thanks so much!

I only have experience from the 3 day virtual Go Boutique Live work shop in February this year. Its clear that Sarah is very committed to her students and the experience was very inspiring with a lot of great information from her and other successful photographers! She makes you feel that you are supported and part of a positive movement.

Sarah is awesome. Her joy is contagious. I am learning so much from her.

This was by far the best training I had in a long time. Not only was it informative, but I came out of it with so many ideas and so much positivity. I think Sarah Petty is amazing and maybe will meet her one day to thank her personally. She reminded me that it is not only about making money, but giving back to the community and it was the push I needed to create my own fundraising initiative for a womens shelter.

Sarah Petty and her amazing team at Joy of Marketing somehow manage to continually outdo themselves. I was a bit doubtful that Go Boutique Live could pack the same punch being virtual, but in some ways, it was better. Since we were sitting at desks (or sofas) it was more like an immersion with written exercises in addition to the presentations. GREAT going!!!!

Wonderful experience presented well and effectively! I was blown away by how passionate everyone involved in putting this together is!! Top notch experience all the way and one I highly recommend to anyone serious about their business!!

I attended go boutique live after being part of Sarahs challenge and listening to her podcast. I cam only say that it was an amazing experience. I learned so much and it has helped my business in so many ways. I gained so much and I am a boutique photographer.

I loved taking this course. It was insightful, challenging and just what I needed to take my business to the next level. I highly recommend this for professionals looking to up their game in the photography and stop selling themselves short by selling nothing but digitals.

I was a photographer who stumbled upon this amazing woman and started following Sarah after getting the Worth Every Penny book and listening to the podcast.. I joined GBL at the last minute and it was excellent! I am now in her Peak Performance coaching program because as many other have stated, Sarah is amazing .. :)

I attended Go Boutique Live, did the Boutique Breakthrough course and Im now a student in the Peak Performance. Cannot say enough wonderful things about Sarah and her team, as well as the other students! There is so much knowledge and support within this group. I never would have made the changes needed to make my business a profitable one if I hadnt invested in myself! My confidence and my sales number have far exceeded my expectations!

I just discovered Sarah Petty in the last couple of months when I got her book and Ive followed her ever since. After receiving a scholarship I really enjoyed attending Go Boutique Live this year. It was informative, inspirational and a good time. Sarahs enthusiasm is infectious and the breakout groups were a great. All in all, I feel like it was time well spent trying to get my business off on the right foot. Thanks to Sarah, Kim, WHCC and the entire GBL team for putting on a great event.

Currently attending the Go Boutique Live 2021 online conference. Sarah and her staff are amazing, energetic and so full of encouragement. The information presented has been extremely helpful and I look forward to the next two days of learning from them!

Sarah Petty and her team at the Joy of Marketing have made all the difference in my business. Being a part of her program continues to give me the tools (and surrounds me with a like-minded community) to help build a successful photography business. It continues to provide me with new business skills I didnt receive with my BFA from SCAD. She is truly contributing to elevating our community as Professional Photographers not just here in the USA, but globally. Ive made great friends all over the world and theres always someone to reach out to when I need lifted! I continue to find myself so grateful to be a part of her program. Huge thank you Sarah, Andria, Erin and the rest of her team!

I have been a student of Sarahs several times. She and her team are awesome and I mean that in the true sense of the word! They bent over backwards to help me learn and grow and I will be forever grateful for the time I spent with them!!!

Sarah and her people are so inspirational. They push you out of your comfort zone, which is so needed to grow. They show you that you are truly worth it. The only thing I dislike is that I cant have Sarah forever.

Fantastic training fully recommend - thankyou so much

Sarah Petty and her team go above and beyond to serve others. I have learned so much already through their example. I did the free Ditch the Digitals training, in progress of the Boutique Breakthrough program, and we have the Go Boutique Live conference this week! I am so ready to be inspired and lit on fire to get my business growing. Love Sarah Petty and her team so much! Cant praise them enough for their knowledge and mostly the positive vibes that ooze from them all! BEST PHOTOGRAPHER ENVIRONMENT EVER!!

Thank you Sarah and team for an amazing experience to discover how to market myself as an artist. After years of art school, this is the first time I am learning these skills!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

As a photographer I share the same passion as Sarah, but there is a lot to learn and she is AWESOME! With all the years she has run her studio she really has it figured out and I cant be happier with how she helps fellow photographers and lifts as she climbs! Sarah and her staff ROCKS!

Sarah Petty is the bomb! She will help you get rid of your negative head trash and make your business successful! She has so much insight and is doing it herself! Take advice from someone in business themselves, not just a public speaker that has no experience. Sarah is so positive and always looking for different angles to teach. Highly recommend!

Love what Joy of Marketing has to offer. Pricey but valuable. I would like to see offers for those of us that dont struggle with head trash.

I have taken several challenges, read Worth Every Penny, and took the Boutique Breakthrough course. Hi love Sarah and her team. I’m looking forward to going to Boutique Live one day. I do have a few Julies but I want more! I think I need go go though the Boutique Breakthrough again by myself and realtor follow though. I know I can make a living with my talent - I’m worth every penny! Thanks Sarah and the Joy Team!

If youve been a photographer for over 10 years or if youve just started, the Joy of Marketing is for you. Its SO worth it and truly worth every penny. Itll change your business life.

I had a very good experience at the Go Boutique Live Virtual conference. I learned some valuable strategies to implement in my photography business that I immediately started doing to create a boutique experience for my clients.

So happy that I took this course! You gain amazing immediately useable information and you gain a new family!! Strongly recommend.

It is a delight working with a team that is friendly, professional, knowledgeable, caring and connected. Great to see how they work as a team to deliver the very best service to clients and even more so the care they show to those that are not yet their clients. Thank you team for being you!!! Fantabulous effort.

Wonderful information. Lots of knowledge and experience. Make sure you are ready to take notes.

I learn so much in regards to getting clients that I would have never thought of on my own.

This training forced me to dig deep and see that the only thing holding me back is myself. Ive become comfortable where I am at, the thought of going bigger and building a business that shows my worth is scary. Sarah definitely does a phenomenal job empowering her students and pushing you to be your best.

Sarah Petty and her colleagues provide relevant, timely strategies for elevating ones photography business and being a more pro-active, effective, and community-minded small business owner.

The Joy of Marketing is AMAZING!!! Sarah, Andria, Erin, and the rest of the team are phenomenal!! So giving and over serve, and just are everything you need and more!

The course was great, If we had heard about this 10 years ago I would have taken it. I have taken a lot of classes including week long PP of A classes but this covered things that were never covered. Also the fact that they work with you for two months is great. We are just at a point in our lives that we are slowing down to just have fun in life of retirement

I wasnt going to write a review, but after 7 emails asking me over and over to write one I am. I believe The 3 day class was great. Well put together. And informative if you are not already IPS and have a successful business. If you are just starting this would be a great place to start.When I signed up I was very specific about what I was looking for. I was told it would fit my needs. It didnt. I waisted 3 days from 8:30 am - 6 Pm each day. It was fun, but I learned nothing. Then the last day is all a push to buy a different program for 18k. Totally willing to do that if it would fit what I need it to. I was sent to a sales specialist, and once I found out it was the same girl (Erin I believe her name was) that promised me that I would love these 3 days, I backed out. I didnt want to be lied to and hand over almost 20k only to regret it. Again, I am not a beginner in IPS or as a photographer. And if I were I feel this would have been great.Again. I 100% meant to keep this to myself. But I am getting annoyed by the emails asking for a review.I wish Sarah and her team Nothing but happiness and success in all that they do!!!!

Ive participated in 3 of Sarahs workshops and enjoyed them all thoroughly. She has a lot of knowledge in the business of photography and is full of energy.

I am of two minds,This I believe is a great model for those starting out and wanting to get it right. For those that want to switch to different model for more success would benefit from taking the course.My other thought s are that you need to be able to maneuver through photoshop and should be a experienced photographer before taking this course to get all the benefits it has to offer

I have learned so much from Sarahs Boutique Breakthrough class. The information was wonderful, but more than that....I felt understood and felt my self-worth go up tremendously. There is work you need to do on your own....but it isnt too hard and it makes all the difference! Now Im looking forward to bringing in the right kind of clients that will value what I do, because I value what I do. :)

I listen the the podcast, have the “Worth Every Penny” book, and took the Boutique Breakthrough program...changed my life and my business. I love what they stand for, how they value family, and all they share so that I too can be a profitable photographer. Go Boutique!!!!!

Absolutely amazing! Life changing! Great group of people!

My business has completely changed and has grown and would not be where it is today without Sarahs coaching. Totally Worth Every Penny!!!!

Im only taking the free class from joy of marketing because I need it! But...I WANT THAT CLASS! BOUTIQUE BREAKTHROUGH! I have already had breakthrough this week from this short class I couldnt imagine 8 weeks with them!!! Ive changed my head trash to positivity and it has changed my Outlook and stance to help my other business flourish as well!! I will be in that class or another course not soon enough! Thank you Sarah and team for taking time and helping everyone!!

I have recently started Sarahs course on ditch the digitals. She is awesome, inspiring and works with such a great team. Can’t wait to do more courses as I grow my boutique!

The staff at Joy of Marketing is very professional and personable. They genuinely care about each individuals success. They (and this honestly is unheard of) wont let you spend money on something that isnt a good fit and bend over backwards identifying what is. The knowledge base of the leaders at this organization is vast. They have quite literally held my (virtual) hands through the process of each step of the marketing plan designed specifically for me and my businesses needs. I cant say enough good things about this company. If I could give 10 stars I would!

I love Joy Of Marketing, I have finally gotten the training that I have needed for years. I wish I had invested my time & money into this program years ago. I feel like anything else I spent prior to this program was a huge waste of money. Thank you team @ Joy of Marketing for being so awesome.

Sarah and her team at Joy of Marketing have been a needed lifeline as I started and grow my photography business. Its easy to tell Sarah truly enjoys when other photographers succeed and breaks down the messy parts of running a business into simple steps so we all improve.

Sarah is so much fun to watch and listen to. She has a real talent for motivation and shares so much valuable knowledge. I would definitely recommend!

I had a great time and learned a lot! Thank you Sarah!

What you will learn from Sarah Petty is life-changing!!

This book is amazing! It has some great ideas that I cant wait to implement into my photography business. I always wondered how I could possible stand out given the fact that there are just so many photographers out there but this book explains how to! Highly recommend.

Amazing experience! You will NOT be disapointed!

The Program was full of very good and usable information

I loved the 5 day challenge!! Sarah commented on posts, the group was very supportive. I would recommend it to anyone!

I thought the class was really good. I would love to take more classes but feel that I need to be free to attend the real web class so I can ask more questions. Again Sarah was very inspiriting and now I have to do this. I love the fact that I dont need Facebook.

Sarah and her team are amazing. The work they do with their clients is amazing! If you are on the fence at all about signing up for one of her courses, DON’T BE! The only thing you could regret is not doing it!

Ive learned so much from Sarah Petty and the Joy of Marketing! I highly recommend any of the programs she offers to elevate your photography business so that you are making a profit and enjoying your business as a portrait photographer. Dont settle for being a shoot and burn photographer! Learn how to structure your business in a way that will serve your clients well, create a legacy of portrait artwork and provide you and your family with the income you deserve for your hard work.

Sarah Petty is a gem! If you want to take your photography biz to the next level or you are just starting your biz you will enjoy her courses, webinars and live videos! All of her courses are full of the information you need to market your business, how to team up with other like minded boutique businesses, offer value, charge what you are worth and give the best customer experience ever! Ive learned and implemented a lot in the last almost 2 years since I first heard of Sarah! Invest in yourself! You wont regret it!

What I have learned in a free class has already improved my business after day 2 I booked a client for what I am worth.

It makes me sad to see photographers who are using the “shoot and burn” model of photography. I remember how that felt. I make more money, feel more appreciated and have way happier clients now that I follow Sarah Petty and have learned to be boutique. It’s such a friendly and supportive environment too. The perfect place to learn and grow in your business!

I can honestly say that the marketing taught in the Breakthrough class can be applied to other businesses as well. I learned vital information to help our photography business attract my target client and work less hard by not competing with shoot and burn businesses. #IAmBoutique #HeirloomPhotography #WorthEveryPenny.

Sarah Petty and her team are the best people I have ever seen to work with. They truly care about your success! The programs she offers are very well layed out and she is there to support you along the way. I highly recommend her programs!

I love Sarah Petty and her team! She is someone to watch and follow!

I just came back from the Sarah Pettys Joy of Marketing Go Boutique Live 2020 conference. I cant say enough good things about it!! It was a well-run conference that met my needs in so many ways! Getting to know other boutique photographers from all over the country who share the same vision, and also being able to sit at the feet of phenomenal speakers and absorb their wisdom in business building, was priceless! Cant wait to move forward this year with all I learned at the conference. It was worth EVERY PENNY!!

I have been using the Joy of Marketing programs and have experienced so much success! The community that has been created is one of positivity and lifting everyone up! I have a newfound joy and passion for my photography business! Love everything about this program!

The energy of Sarah Petty and her team is awesome! They are constantly growing as they bring up others. I have found several smoke-screen businesses over my life, and this business is so far from that ot has really blown my mind. 😊

Best investment I made for my business, by far!

Sarah and her team really care about your needs, feelings, and strides. You can see it in everything they do, especially Sarah. She remains focused on where she came from so she can continue to be compassionate and truly work to benefit those that are not at her level income wise. She never looks down on anyone or generalizes. She knows it takes hard work to get to where she is and beyond so that is why she is so willing to walk along side you. I highly recommend her teaching. It is very beneficial and even creative!

I really enjoyed learning from Sarah, she is personality plus. Sarah had some great ideas for us to explore and use for our own businesses. The interaction with other students was also very helpful as we knew we were not alone in our thoughts and feelings and helped to show where we were at. I would highly recommend Joy of Marketing with Sarah Penny for any course that you may be considering. Definitely value for money.

Fantastic week course. So much information and honest, truthful help that will change your outlook

I have learned a lot from the 5 day challenge, and i cant wait to use what i have learned to help me grow my business, which is i have just started to open, so i am new to it all.

While the book was well written, it tended to repeat itself. The idea of a Boutique style business is not new to me. Most photographers probably know to personalize the experience and go above and beyond their customers expectations. I like that you shared what other people are doing, but you dont really tell how to make it a true boutique business. In short, the information that is provided would be better served by being an idea/ tip hotline as opposed to a purchased book. I will retain the book on my shelf though, there may be more I can get out of it on a second or third read.

I have learned an enormous amount about the business side of photography from the Joy of Marketing. Sarah and her team are very helpful and encouraging. I love their mantra- no photographer left behind. I am no longer a photographer, I run a photography business. Thank you for your gifts.

You get a lot of very useful information.

Sarah is amazing and her Boutique Breakthrough program has completely change my business model for the MUCH better! I cant recommend her enough!

Sara Petty is one of those rare people that not only inspires you but really cares. I have done two free classes and one paid. I have learned more about my business model than I ever expected. She is so refreshingly positive it is hard not to follow her. Clear and concise in her teaching and fun to be around. I’m sure she has helped me into my retirement career.Sue King

Never learned so much in just one day

The Go Boutique Live workshop was an amazing experience. Lots of valuable info, amazing speakers and a huge dose of inspiration packed in 2 days.

Sarah and the Joy team is simply amazing. I had a great time learning, Sarahs energy just sticks with you and helps you do stuff. WORTH EVERY PENNY ;)

I really love every min of this

Sarah Petty and the Joy Of Marketing team came to me at the right time, when I needed them most. With everyone else telling me that I needed social media to be successful in my photography business, I fell down that rabbit hole and never really attracted the right clients to me...I was almost ready to give up. But I stumbled across Joy Of Marketing (in one of my last-ditch efforts to find other ways of marketing) and they spoke loud and clear to me. They taught me how to reconnect with people, face-to-face, and how to do it in the right way, in small easy-to-follow real steps, and my business is now attracting my perfect client who love what I do and are willing to pay me top dollar for it. If youre a photographer looking for good marketing ideas, this is the only place I would recommend to really bring you success in your photography business (and believe me, I have tried and invested in many other ways to no avail!)

Ive learned so much from Sarah!

Sarah and the Joy team go above and beyond my expectations. The marketing strategies are proven to work. I’ve learned more about running a successful boutique business in this year than I have in over 15 years trying to figure it out on my own. Sarah is well worth the investment!!!!

I bought the Boutique Breakthrough course. It is very comprehensive and Sarah is there to cheer you on! Unfortunately, I got way behind, but if you follow the steps exactly, Im sure it will work for you! I learned alot that I can use in my sales presentation and how to talk on the phone.

Sarah Petty & the Joy of Marketing are both amazing in the realm of knowledge and resources they provide other photographers. I have completed several courses and am amazed each and every time with the nuggets of info I take away from each. Through the training I have become more confident, have a system in place, have been pushed along to make myself and my business better and I truly know now that I am truly Worth Every Penny!

They never disappoint! Ive bought several things from them from time to time and have never been disappointed with any of my purchases.

My experiences so far with Joy of Marketing has been great. They were very helpful when I needed it most! I am looking forward to learning more and putting everything I experience into practice!

A fantastic place to learn in a supportive community focused group

Everyone is so nice and very willing to help. i dont think there are enough words to share how awesome the crew is.

Always informative and inspiring. Sarah and her team really know how to create and maintain a boutique business.

Want and Inspirational experience ? check out the joy of marketing.

When I got there, I was half crazy.And the first 3 peopleI spoke with, said, Breathe, your here now. You are where you are supposed to be. Now, come here, you need a hug! Awesome people. Not just The Joy Team, but the photographers, too.The whole experience was a blur and didnt really start to sink in and process until about halfway home.I think my biggest ah-ha moment was when Cate said, Im not Walmart, Im llLouis Vitton. I will be back next year. And I will be doing the program soon. Thank you so much Sarah PettyPetty and Kelly Swanson.

Sarah is awesome. Her content is very useful!

Sarah produces friendly, energetic, and helpful set of educational services that can apply to photographers in a wide range of genres.

Sarah Petty and her team are an amazing resource for photographers of all skill levels. Whether you have an established business or are thinking about turning professional, you cannot ask for a better mentor for your small business.

I got my book last week and while I havent read it yet, I was overwhelmed with emotion receiving the Affirmations sheet 🥰 I needed it

Very Motivationg and Informative especially on IG

I have learned more about marketing in the 2 months with Joy of marketing than I have in 10 years! They are all so great to work with

Very inspiring!

Fantastic group of people and Sarah is amazing!

I am already a member.......just backtracking a little bit
