Outreach Project

Wisconsin Photographer Outreach Research

Second-shooting opportunities for Rivalee

Regional Focus: Medford / Wausau / Eau Claire
Objective

Build a clean, compliant outreach list of photographers within roughly 1.5 hours of Medford, WI 54451, with a focus on Wausau, Eau Claire, and surrounding Central Wisconsin markets.

Main Bottleneck

Many photographers only use contact forms, so public email availability is limited and some nearby photographers still need direct site verification.

Best Targets

Wedding photographers in Eau Claire, Wausau, Stevens Point, Chippewa Valley, and Central Wisconsin who may need second shooters, assistants, or backup coverage.

Action Steps

Outreach workflow

Include 15 to 25 images and 2 to 3 full galleries.

Use a short, role-specific subject line and 1 clear ask. Position Rivalee as local, reliable, and eager to learn.

Prioritize Wausau, Eau Claire, Chippewa Valley, Stevens Point, and nearby Central Wisconsin photographers before expanding statewide.

Personalize each note with one detail about their work.

Keep it brief and include the portfolio link again.

Reference the email and offer to send availability.

Include an opt-out and stop outreach if there is no reply.

Compliance checklist
  • Use only public business emails
  • Include business identity and physical mailing address
  • Honor opt-outs promptly
  • Avoid misleading subject lines
  • Verify missing emails before bulk outreach
