Catherine DeSoto brings a unique perspective to marketing, combining her background as a flight attendant, photographer, and AI focused business owner to help local businesses connect with more customers. During the conversation, she explains that branding photography is not just about polished headshots, but about building a visual story around who a business owner is, what they do, and why clients should trust them. She also dives into the growing role of AI in service based businesses, especially for owners who miss calls while working, traveling, spending time with family, or managing day to day operations. Katherine highlights how AI receptionists can answer calls, respond to texts, qualify leads, book appointments, and follow up with prospects in a way that feels natural and customized to each brand. For small businesses, the biggest benefit is not just saving time, but capturing leads that would otherwise move on to a competitor.
