The Systems & Workflow Magic Podcast is hosted by Dolly DeLong, a Nashville-based family photographer and systems-driven marketing educator for family photographers.

Are you a family photographer who wants to stay consistent with marketing, simplify your backend systems, and run your business with more structure and peace? This is the podcast for you.

The show shares:

  • Marketing systems for Instagram, email, and beyond — built for real family photographers with limited time and full seasons of life
  • Backend business operations, workflows, SOPs, and repeatable routines that bring order and intention to how you run your business
  • Conversations with trusted experts covering systems, SEO, email strategy, automation, and backend operations — so you are not figuring everything out on your own
  • Behind-the-scenes insights from Dolly's own business and personal life, including faith, family, and a business intentionally designed around the life she loves

The goal is to help family photographers think like their own CMO — building a sustainable, consistent marketing cadence that keeps them visible and booked ahead, without chasing trends, scrambling at the last minute, or burning out.

This is not a trends or hacks podcast. It is about clarity, consistency, and the kind of "business magic" that comes from structure, not shortcuts.

If you are a family photographer ready to move from scattered to structured, hit subscribe.

  • Broken Links Are Quietly Wrecking Your SEO
    Mar 30 2026
    Okay, family photographer, I need you to be honest with yourself for a second: when was the last time you checked your website for broken links? Not just a quick glance at your homepage. I mean, actually going through and making sure every single link works. Because I just discovered that my own website had over 166 sessions landing on a "page not found" error, and I'm spilling the tea on all of it in this episode. Whether you watch on YouTube or listen on your favorite podcast player, stick around because I'm walking you through why broken links matter, showing you a completely free tool to find yours, and doing a live demo of how I'm fixing mine in real time.Here's the backstory: I've spent the last four years separating my photography website from my systems and workflow education website. I'm a solo business owner doing it all myself, and I believe in slow, sustainable growth (and I'm willing to put in the work)! But when I checked Google Analytics and saw that "page not found" was one of my top three most visited pages? Yeah, I spiraled for about five minutes. Then I made a plan. Because that's what we do around here.What you'll learn in this episodeWhy broken links are one of the sneakiest things quietly undoing all of your SEO workHow broken links leak your link equity (that trail of trust between your pages)The completely free tool I'm using right now to find every broken link on my websiteAnd so much more!Resources & Links Mentioned In This Episode▸ Read the full blog post that goes with this episode (that way, you get all the links mentioned): https://systemsandworkflowmagic.com/the-free-tool-im-using-to-find-every-broken-link-on-my-photography-website/▸ The Family Photographer's Marketing Society: https://systemsandworkflowmagic.com/the-family-photographers-marketing-society▸ Grab the FREE 2026 Family Photographers Marketing Trends Report: https://systemsandworkflowmagic.com/family-photography-marketing-trends▸ Apply HERE to work with me to be your 1:1 marketer for your family photography business!Connect with Me (Dolly DeLong Education)💻 Website📱Instagram🎥 YouTubeThanks for joining me on The Systems & Workflow Magic Podcast!

  • The One Stat About Blogging That Will Change Your Marketing Plan
    Mar 23 2026
    Be honest with yourself for a second. When was the last time you sat down at the very start of a month and knew, before the first week even hit, exactly what you were going to blog, what Instagram content was coming from that blog, and what you were emailing your list? Not reacting to a slow week. Not panic posting because inquiries dried up. Just a plan, a real one. If that question made you squirm a little, this episode is for you. In Episode 226, I'm spilling the tea with content marketing strategist Kara Duncan of The Kara Report, and we are breaking down why strategic SEO blogging is the marketing foundation most family photographers are skipping, and how one blog post can fuel your entire week of content across Instagram and email.I'm sitting down with Kara Duncan, the founder of The Kara Report, where she does content marketing, specifically Pinterest and blogging, for service-based businesses, mostly photographers.
