first step philosophy

Barn-raising For Success: Owning your proactive community


“…when people come together everyone gets a barn.” – Tim Olive

Our brand is what we sell. Not just our photographs. Today more than ever, our perceived brand is based on our ability to build powerful relationships - which become levers for us to succeed.

Such is the case with our community. Our community is our brand. This program proactively illustrates that when a community owns their brand, and shares in the accountability for that brand, everyone’s value is raised.

This participatory program is an introduction to the principles of proactive team-building, problem-solving and it’s about how individual photographers can each prosper by helping each other build value within their community. Conducted by Tim Olive, APA’s VP of Mission and Effectiveness, and founder of the APA Success Teams along with special guest George Fulton, APA National President, this will immensely inspire you to understand your power as an individual to create powerful personal change by working in community with others.

Presented by Tim Olive with George Fulton

Proactive Digital Delivery: Anatomy of a partnered workflow

“…the pudding is in the proof.” – George Fulton

There’s a good place to start a workflow – before the beginning.

In this program, photo-illustrator and APA National President, George Fulton, with special guest Tim Olive, takes you through his personal workflow starting before his first digital file was ever delivered. Before deciding to deliver digitally, George studied his market and designed a workflow that would:

• create additional value for his clients by providing an accountable cmyk workflow
• create fresh creative approaches
• create additional and measurable revenue for his business
• parallel and reinforce the licensing model seamlessly

Digital delivery isn’t for everybody, but it’s here, and it’s pervasive. And if we are going to do it, we should consider the importance of each step within the framework of the big picture - partnering with our clients to provide unquestionable value. From the initial phone call for the estimate to the delivery of the final proof. George will explain in detail and with handouts – his thought process behind his system of partnering with his clients and vendors in a successful way, all the while enabling more effective licensing.
