This Small Phone Camera Lens Can Make A Huge Difference

Your Social Media Feed craves good pictures, and good pictures come from a decent camera. Adding a small phone camera lens can make a huge difference in the quality of photos your camera is producing. That difference can easily turn into a paying guest at your location.

We previously shared some Tips for using pictures in Social Media, and do recommend that you read that if you haven’t already.

A Small Phone Camera Lens Can Make A Huge Difference

One of the leading decision makers in people booking a room at a location is what the room actually looks like. People want to see pictures of where they’ll be staying or taking their family to stay. Hoteliers will know that getting a good room picture is one of the more difficult things to do. Choices seem to be pretty limited. Either you’ve got a decent camera and enough time and equipment to do it yourself, you can hire a professional photographer to come in and do a room shoot for you, or you just grab a picture with your phone and hope for the best.

That’s how it used to be.

With a phone camera lens, the world of photography tends to open up just a little bit more for smart phone users.  That room picture that was so difficult to get now becomes painless with a wide angle lens attached in front of the camera on your phone. The front sign that looks great but is just too far away to get a good picture of? That’s taken care of with the 10x zoom lens. A picture from the edge of the pool comes alive with the fish-eye lens attachment. The possibilities become endless with the right set of tools for social media pictures.

I’m not discounting the need for a professional photographer, and highly suggest that you invest in at least one professional property shoot for your location. I’m referring to day-to-day social media posts that include pictures. Those are the ones you can spice up a bit with a  phone camera lens and stand out among your competition.

You can pick up that lens kit pictured in this post right here on Amazon.

Don’t Count The Hours You Work

don't watch the clockDon’t count the hours you work. Seriously – Don’t. It can be pretty depressing, actually. Instead, focus on the amount of work you’ve gotten done in the time you’ve had to work on things. That paradigm shift in Time Management has made a huge difference in the lives of many of the people I have worked with over the years. We’re all given the same amount of time each day; what we do with ourselves in those hours is what sets us apart from each other.

To help you make this change:

  • Schedule time for yourself in the morning to go over what your day is going to look like.
  • Be honest with yourself and your schedule. Is what you’re doing contributing to the success of your business?
  • Set appropriate amount of time aside for meaningful tasks, and write them down – or consider using one of the many task apps available today.
  • Delegate less important tasks to others, or get rid of them.
  • Protect your time and your calendar.  Unless it’s an emergency, an unscheduled appointment or event can wait until it’s properly scheduled.
  • Schedule time for yourself at the end of your day and go over your accomplishments.

It’s not about how many hours you worked during a shift, it’s about the quality of work you performed during that time.
