Podcast Ep 389 - I'm doing everything right and they still aren't booking!

In this episode of the Flourish Academy podcast, Heather and Nicole dive into one of the most maddening experiences for photographers: when you “do everything right” on an inquiry call… and the client still doesn’t book. They break down why this happens, how to stop spiraling into self-doubt, and the mindset shifts that keep you moving forward with confidence. If you’ve ever wondered, “Why isn’t this working?” — this conversation is your reset.

Key Takeaways (3–5)

  • Why doing everything “right” still doesn’t guarantee a booking

  • The two mental “tracks” photographers default to after a no — and how to choose the one that builds momentum

  • How expectations quietly create frustration (and how to release them)

  • The role of energy, fun, and curiosity in booking more clients

  • Why hearing more no’s can actually strengthen your business
