Surprise! It's NOT All About The Pictures!

Over at Rob Haggart's A Photo Editor, his article - Good News In Photography - Points out something quite interesting, which I've re-arranged for the sake of discussion:

Here are other key points to why my business is growing:

NON-Photo/Creative Related:

1. Easy To Work With
2. Flexible
3. Honesty
4. Be Polite
5. Marketing
6. Surround Yourself With Good People

Creative-Related:

1. People are really responding to my vision
2. Being a true part of the creative process
3. Personal projects

There's a lot more insight into each of those points in Rob's piece, but I want to make sure you understand that succeeding is often not about great photos, but about all manner of other things!
