Michelle Ardiel is the Director of Photographer Operations at Flytographer, the very first platform created for vacation photographers that now works with 500 photographers in 300 cities around the world. Passionate about seeing the connections between travelers and local photographers, Michelle fosters community with intentional global retreats that build life-long friendships.  Notes: How creating a community allows for better retention The importance of social, not just work-related tasks during an off-site/meetup Booking a meetup depending on the busy/slow season of the business Booking in a city that is most convenient to the majority of the home base Why community is the most important thing 📷 Kimon K. for Flytographer 🎶 "1001 Nights" by Ouzo Bazooka ouzobazooka.bandcamp.com
