What do you think is the best way to advertise snakes?

Yes, it is not the easiest question to answer. If anyone asks me about photos, my response is always "make sure the snake looks like it looks".....ha ha.

I have seen a few "disputes" over the years due to photos.....sometimes a good picture can make a snake look a lot better than it really is. Sure it could help you get a sale....but it could just as easily get you a dissatisfied customer. If you are involved with marketing in other professions.....I am sure you understand the risks of not accurately representing goods for sale.

Absolutely and 100%. I assist the owners of my local exotic fish store with photography of their fish, and when a lionfish or a arowana looks different in a customer's tank with a LED light vs our white lights, people can get testy.

But people who purchase fish online, or the goats I photograph, or really anything - any group of consumers looking for specific things, are drawn to ads differently, and I just wanted to see if I could figure out what draws BP buyers. Like already stated, it is subconscious so most people don't really know how to answer it, but there's no harm in asking.
