You keep asking me for a follow up script, and I keep telling you no.

This week I'm answering the question I get more than any other: what do I say when a couple goes quiet after a consultation? The short answer is nothing, because a script was never the problem.

I'm walking you through why your consultation is ending without a clear next step, how to book that next step on the call itself, and what an actual personal follow up sounds like when you do need to send one.

Here's what you'll walk away with:

• Why a follow up script cannot fix a consultation that ends without a clear next step

• The exact question to ask before a couple leaves the call, and how to book a follow up date on the spot

• What a personal, transcript-specific follow up looks like compared to a generic template

You want to stop doing weddings and still pay yourself well, and it feels impossible because those two things don't arrive at the same time. In this episode Brandee walks through the real build behind her own freedom: the contractor bottleneck, the salary trade she made on purpose, hiring up one role at a time, and the middle-season framework that reframes why building feels like going backward. Then she hands you three questions to decide your own path.

Here's what you'll take away:

• Why you can't have time freedom and financial freedom at the same time, and the middle season where you trade one for the other

• What "hiring up" means: every hire has to remove a responsibility entirely, not just reduce it

• The three questions to answer before you build: what you want in three years, what you're willing to trade, and what season you're in

Most wedding pros are drowning in manual follow-ups, content, and admin while the work that makes money keeps sliding to tomorrow. In this episode find out what changes when AI becomes the operational layer under your business, not a caption generator you have to prompt. This is the shift from being a tool user to being a system user, and it is happening faster than most people realize.

Here is what you'll take away:

• The real difference between a CRM that automates a generic funnel and an AI employee trained on your offers, pricing, and history that drafts the right reply before you wake up

• Why you audit your biggest time suck first, then build one system at a time like rolling the first ball of a snowman

• How AI turns the words you already say on calls and in meetings into content that sounds like you and pulls in clients like the ones you've already booked

In this episode, I'm breaking down the one AI skill that has to come before any prompt, tool, or automation.

Most wedding pros are building on a broken foundation, which is why their AI content sounds generic and nothing like them.

I'll show you how to build your foundation file so AI finally sounds like you and saves you the hours everyone keeps promising.

You're buried in repetitive work and drowning in A.I. hype that promises a hack will save you 10 hours. It won't, because A.I. is not the strategy.

In this episode I pull back the curtain on how we use A.I. employees inside our own wedding businesses to handle onboarding, follow-ups, sales tracking, and content, so your business runs lighter while you sleep.

If you've felt behind on A.I., this is the foundational breakdown that finally makes it make sense for wedding pros.

I have spent 20 years in the wedding industry, and since launching Wedding Pro CEO in 2020 I have helped hundreds of wedding pros build profitable, scalable businesses. The single biggest shift I am seeing right now is not about better prompts.

In this episode, I break down the difference between using AI as a tool and using it as an operating system, introduce the four AI agents every wedding pro should build first, and show you exactly where to start so you can stop being the bottleneck in your own business.

If you are tired of doing everything yourself, this one is for you.

This week I went undercover and secret shopped a wedding DJ to expose exactly why so many wedding pros are losing sales before they ever get on a consult, and the answer has nothing to do with pricing.

I'm walking you through every friction point I hit, from the bloated contact form to the consultation that left me more confused than when I started, plus the five fixes that will turn your leads into booked weddings.

If you've been getting plenty of inquiries but not enough contracts, this episode is the wake-up call your business needs.

Wedding planners—are you cutting event management from your services? BIG mistake.

If you’ve hit that “fully booked” stage and think the only way to scale is by eliminating event management, I need you to STOP. Cutting it means losing cash flow, vendor referrals, and a built-in training ground for your team.

But here’s the good news: you don’t have to do it yourself. In this episode, I’ll walk you through how to keep event management as a strategic part of your business—so you can scale faster, build a stronger reputation, and create predictable income WITHOUT adding more to your plate.

I would like to introduce you to my Business Coach for 2024, Kenda Laney. We talk about the 4 buyer types and how understanding these can boost marketing and sales outcomes.

The 4 buyer types are: Driver, Analytical, Expressive, and Amiable. Each has unique characteristics and behaviors that influence their buying decisions.

We tied these buyer types to real-world examples in the wedding industry, explaining how understanding these varying customer profiles can help businesses tailor their marketing and sales approaches for improved results.

We stressed the importance of content creation that speaks to all types of buyers and guides them through the buying process. All of this contributes to a smoother sales process and stronger client relationships.

This episode dives into the importance of using Instagram strategically as a wedding professional to fill your lead funnel. Rather than viewing Instagram as a gallery for pretty photos that requires random posting, it should be utilized as a powerful sales tool to constructively engage with potential clients who are researching vendors.

My discussion covers multiple strategies including reframing your mindset, optimizing your profile to stand out, always sell without sounding overly promotional, and utilizing the chatbot automation called Many Chat to engage with potential clients.

The goal is to create a purposeful Instagram strategy that funnels engaged followers into paying clients.

Sydney Garvey's story is a testament to the power of implementing the course work inside of the Wedding Pro CEO Accelerator.

She transitioned from flower farming to opening a brick-and-mortar florist shop while expanding her wedding services.

The key moment that activated the growth was her realization that the business side of the wedding industry needed more attention than the creative aspects.

We discussed the importance of delegation and empowering team members to handle different aspects of the business, allowing for exponential growth.

Sydney's success story showcases how the Wedding Pro CEO Accelerator program played a pivotal role in streamlining her operations, setting clear goals, and establishing a spending plan.

In this reflective, in and outs episode, I take listeners behind the scenes of my 2023 business year, discussing the highs and lows and lessons learned.

From the success of the Wedding Pro CEO Accelerator program to failing to meet our expected revenue targets, it was a year of both growth and challenges.

Notably, the key lesson learned was to understand why goals weren't met and to formulate a strategy to fix it in the following year. With a renewed focus on education and growth in 2024, I am eager to slay my business goals and help even more wedding pros do the same.

Hey there, CEO! In today's episode, I'm thrilled to introduce you to the She Calls Her Shots podcast with Krista Marie. Krista and I had an amazing conversation about a topic that resonates with all of us: how to protect our time while growing our revenue. Trust me, we all need this!

Every year on this show, we like to spend a month where we highlight other industry podcasts that we love and that I know you will love too.

We delved into the importance of setting goals that don't overwhelm us and narrowing our focus to achieve long-term growth in our businesses.

Krista, a wedding and brand photographer and a no-fluff business coach, and I had a great connection throughout the episode.

During our chat, we reminisced about how I got started in this industry. I began my journey as a corporate event planner at a major hotel in Orlando after college. Although it seemed like a charmed entry, the long hours and lack of quality time with my daughter made me realize I needed a change.

We also tackled the overwhelming amount of education available nowadays. Trust me, I've had students who purchased countless programs in a year, only to feel completely overwhelmed. It's crucial to find clarity amidst the information overload.

As a wedding industry pro, you might feel the pressure to be present on every social media platform, manage your clients, and handle all the other aspects of your business. I encourage you to focus on one area that will move the needle the most for you right now. Put blinders on and go all in.

Remember, my ultimate goal is to help you ditch overwhelm and build a profitable business you love. That's why I create digital courses, social media content, podcasts, and YouTube videos—all available on my website, brandeegaar.com. I invite you to join me on this journey, leverage the resources, and let's make your wedding business thrive!

Tune in to the Wedding Pro CEO podcast and embark on a path to a sustainable, profitable, and fulfilling wedding business.

Hey there, CEOs!! I am thrilled to have you here as we dive into some game-changing strategies that will take your financial game to the next level. Today, I want to focus on three simple yet powerful tips that will help you build personal wealth without any additional costs. So, let's get started!

Tip number one is all about opening a business credit card. I'll be sharing why a business credit card can actually be a valuable asset in your financial journey and how it can help you get the most out of your business expenses.

Moving on to tip number two, we'll explore the world of high yield savings accounts. I recently discovered the incredible benefits of these accounts, and I can't wait to share them with you. Imagine earning 4 or 5% interest on your savings, compared to the meager rates offered by traditional banks. It's time to make your money work harder for you.

Last but not least, tip number three is all about making your personal finance a priority. I want to empower you to go beyond just paying yourself a salary and start investing in your retirement and future wealth. I'll be introducing you to a personal finance guru, Ramit Sethi, who has some incredible insights on designing a rich life that's unique to you.

Join me in the Wedding Pro CEO community on Facebook, where we can continue these conversations and support each other on our financial journeys. It's a thriving community of like-minded entrepreneurs, and I'd love for you to be part of it.

Remember, it's absolutely okay to be excited about making more money as a business owner. Your financial success is an integral part of building the life you love. Head over to brandeegaar.com for more valuable resources, digital courses, and social media content that will empower you on your path to profitability.

Hey there CEO's! In this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing Tom Chelednik from the Knot and WeddingWire. We delved into the common issue of wedding professionals not being able to book clients and explored effective lead generation strategies.

Tom stressed the importance of understanding your ideal client and aligning your marketing with their preferences and interests. By showcasing your expertise and passions through blogs, social media, and website content, you can attract the right clients and increase your chances of closing more bookings.

I also highlighted the value of linking relevant blog posts in follow-up emails, as it establishes your expertise and builds rapport.

Tom shared valuable insights into client communication preferences and stressed the importance of adapting to their preferred method of contact. Whether it's phone calls, text messages, or email, meeting clients where they are increases the likelihood of meaningful engagement and conversion.

To support our listeners, Tom generously provided a downloadable resource called "10 Ways to Market to Generation Z," which offers valuable tips and strategies tailored to this demographic. Use the link below to download the content.

In this episode, we dive into a common frustration: why isn't your wedding business growing? As wedding professionals, we work tirelessly, often sacrificing our weekends and free time to create unforgettable events. But what if I told you that your business isn't reaching its full potential because your mindset is holding you back?

Picture this: a TikTok video featuring a snake shedding its skin caught my attention, and it holds an important lesson for us all. The snake didn't grow to its full size because it was confined to a small tank. Similarly, our businesses won't thrive if we limit ourselves and our ambitions. (Listen to the episode for the full crazy Tiktok story!

But it's time to break free from that limited thinking. We must surround ourselves with like-minded entrepreneurs who have already achieved what we aspire to. When we expand our community, we expand our possibilities.

So, don't let overwhelm hold you back any longer. Connect with me on Instagram @BrandeeGaar and let's start building your bigger tank.

On today's episode, I am talking with Carissa Kruse about the importance of funnels in the wedding industry. Carissa is a sales and backend funnel strategy expert for wedding professionals who helps them book more weddings without constantly chasing leads.

Carissa and I, discuss the three main funnels that wedding entrepreneurs need in their businesses: the cold funnel (excite and attract), the warm funnel (captivate and convert), and the hot funnel (surprise and delight).

The cold funnel is used to attract leads, the warm funnel to convert those leads into bookings, and the hot funnel to create a client journey that leads to referrals.

We also chat about how Carissa got into the wedding industry and how she has expanded her business over the years, and shares valuable insights into how wedding entrepreneurs can create profitable businesses they love.

Hello CEOs!! In this episode, I discuss the biggest challenge I faced when running my wedding business: feeling overwhelmed, even with a large team. I realized that I was managing tasks instead of managing people, which meant that even when I delegated tasks to my team, I was still overwhelmed with work.

To solve this problem, I started delegating roles instead of tasks. By assigning specific roles to team members, they took ownership of the tasks within their role, which freed up my time and reduced my workload. I also made sure to set clear communication guidelines and touch-points to ensure that everyone was on the same page, and tasks were completed efficiently.

Welcome to part two of the Make More Money series, and in this three part series we're breaking down three different ways that you can make MORE money in your wedding business!!

Couldn't we all stand to make a little more money in our wedding business!?

BEFORE YOU LISTEN: This is part two. If you have not yet listened to part one, to go back and listen to episode 179 where I talk all about how to WORK MORE to make more in your wedding business. I break down some really specific strategies on how to work more with intentionality to make more in your business.

Today is part two of the Make More Money series, and we are talking all about how to CONVERT MORE in your business.

When I'm working with different wedding pros, so often what I hear is we don't have enough sales!!! or we need to increase our sales!!!

However, what's actually more accurate is that they're not converting enough leads in their business. Most wedding pros don't know if they're converting enough leads in their business because they're not tracking the data.

So that is what I am teaching today! To my CEOs interested in growing a real business they love, I want you to download my Inquiry Data Tracker. You can go to https://brandeegaar.com/LEADCONVERSION for the free Inquiry Data Tracker. Follow along and maximize your time invested in listening to this series!

Today starts a three part series here on the podcast that I'm calling the Make More Money series because couldn't we all use a little bit more money in our wedding business?

I know you are tired of working long hours and not seeing the results you want in your wedding business? (I was!) Do you feel like you're always hustling but not making enough money?

In this three-part Make More Money series, we're going to discuss the different stages of business and how to automate your business so that you can increase profitability.

Listen in for the following:

• The Three Stages of the Wedding Business, what stage are you in? Take the quiz!
• Treating Your Business Like a Business
• Automating Your Workflows
• Automating Your Team Responsibilities

Treating your business like a business and automating your workflows and team responsibilities is essential for increasing profitability. By transitioning from the Hustle stage to the CEO stage, you can create a business that works for you and not the other way around. With these tips, you can make more money and achieve the success you've been dreaming of.

I wanna ask you, have you ever thought of writing a book? If you've been in the industry for any amount of time, you've likely been told by a friend or a coworker that you should write a book.

There's so many crazy things that happen to us in this industry, right? And putting it all in a book just sounds like such a great idea. But then you start to think, maybe that's a lot of work!? I'm busy already and I don't even know where to start or how I would get it published or what it would even be about???

On today's show, my guest, Jeri Solomon and Edna Dratch Parker are both wedding pros in New England and Boston, and they came together over the last several years to write a book on how to plan a wedding.

What I love about this book is that they did a really great job of simply setting the foundation of wedding planning for couples for newly engaged couples.

They don't get into pricing and markets.

They aren't trying to replace a wedding planner.

In fact, they tell you that having a wedding planner is actually super important to planning your wedding.

But they do really set the foundation for engaged couples to help alleviate some of those questions that we answer over and over and over again as wedding pros.

If you've ever thought about writing a book, Edna and Jeri talk about their journey of writing and publishing their book, as well as what it's done for their businesses and why you should really consider authoring a book if that's something that's been on your bucket list.

So you guys, I know that you're gonna enjoy this episode, so sit back, relax, and let's get into it!!

I want to share three mistakes that I see happening so often in the wedding industry. I work with so many wedding pros and I absolutely love getting to like, dig into their business and really figure out what is causing some of their stress.

That stress is created by either lack of profit or a lack of time. Sometimes just plain old overwhelm or burnout occurs too.

As a wedding pro coach, I see the same mistakes over and over and over again. Mistakes that I too have made!!

So, I thought, what better way to share them than to come onto the podcast and say, these are the three mistakes I see wedding Pros making, and I want help you to avoid them!

Today I am being interviewed by Dallas Roy of, Details by Dallas Marketing Firm. This is such a fun conversation!!!

Dallas has a group of mostly seasoned wedding planners that submit questions to her. She then interviews wedding pros, asking them the questions and then publishes the answers to teach her audience all about building successful wedding industry businesses.

She reached out and asked if she could actually interview me, I thought it would be great and we decided to air it on the podcast.

This was such a fun time, and I think that there were some really tangible tips that our listeners will really take away from this episode. I hope that you love it!

This is a totally different kind of episode than we normally air, but I think it was a lot of fun.

Tahnee Sanders, a journalist turned floral designer-turned creative entrepreneur, takes a bold career pivot and starts the Strategy Studio to help female-founded creative service providers communicate their value, charge what they're worth, and run more profitable, sustainable businesses - all while navigating the unique customer lifecycle of the wedding industry.

"Are you exhausted or are you saturated? And there's a difference. So exhausted is obviously that full body exhaustion. I can't go on. I'm at my tipping point. I'm done. But saturation is when we are consuming so much content that we're not giving ourselves any white space to think creatively." -Tahnee Sanders

I want to ask you, have you ever heard of a three thumb scroll? I hadn't either until my conversation today with Tahnee Sanders.

She is such a breath of fresh air and we are talking all about how social media may be hurting your business.

Today I wanna talk about, "faking it until you make it." Now, listen, I know that this term gets a really bad rap in a lot of industries, right?

My husband hates when I use this term because it can convey the idea of falsifying your credentials to gain some sort of unwarranted notoriety.

"Fake it 'til you make it" can sometimes seem like it's saying you should lie about your expertise, or you should lie about what you have and haven't done. And I would never condone that.

I definitely, do not think, you should ever lie about what your experience or expertise is or where you have or have not worked.

Lying is never appropriate. Let's just clear that off the table. Listen to this Short episode of the Wedding Pro CEO Podcast and you will understand the best possible interpretation of "faking it until you make it."

Thank you for listening!

On today's Short, I wanna talk about, letting success be your response. A few weeks ago I saw a post by a fellow educator, Terrica. She's a force in the wedding education space. She's also a wedding planner on the East coast.

And Terrca's post said, let success be your response. And I was like, yes. Say it again!! Because I wholeheartedly believe in this so very much.

Whether it is the snarky responses from the sad humans in the comment section or people in your industry frustrated with your accomplishments, instead of getting angry and coming down to their level... Let your SUCCESS be your response.

Enjoy this Short of the Wedding Pro CEO Podcast! And thank you for supporting us by listening!

I opened the 2022 Wedding Pro CEO Summit encouraging all in attendance to be a Humble Learner. The theme of the summit was to help established wedding business owners to scale beyond the hamster wheel and become the CEO of their business.

I wanted everyone to learn a lesson from a Tiktok my husband shared with me. The philosopher, Epictetus was the subject of this short video.

From that Tiktok the subject of this opening presentation was born. Epictetus teaches that you cannot learn what you think you already know.

To be a successful wedding business owner, it is important to have an open mind and to be a humble learner, check your ego at the door and be vulnerable. You may learn something that can help you to completely rethink the process you thought was great.

Today, I want to discuss the importance of auditing your sales funnel.

For those who may not be familiar, a sales funnel refers to the process of bringing new followers into your business through various networks such as referrals, social media, and advertising.

However, sometimes you may find that your sales are not meeting your goals, and this could be due to issues in your sales funnel.

That's why, I want to share a quick and easy exercise that I do every month at my company, Blush, to check for any leaks in our sales funnel.

Thanks for listening and I hope this exercise helps you to understand and fix any leaks in your sales funnel.

Remember, my goal is to help you build a profitable business that you truly love.

On today's show, I am talking with Gretchen Culver of Rocket Science Events and Moon and Stars events and Minne Weddings. I wanna ask you, CEO. Have you ever had an idea for an additional revenue stream, or maybe even a whole separate company, but you're afraid to?

Or maybe you started it and things didn't quite go to plan, and so you just shut it down right away? Well, on today's episode, with Gretchen we talk about pivoting and either growing a new business, incorporating a new aspect of your current business or realizing it was just a half baked idea and shelving it for now.

Gretchen has pivoted into 3 different companies that are all complimentary of each other, and she shares on today's show a little bit of how each of those brands was started, the pivots that she has to make and tips to really help you understand whether it's the right time to start another brand or to start an additional revenue stream and things to think about so that you don't fall into those pitfalls when you do start this next brand.

I loved, loved this conversation with Gretchen. We had so much fun really talking about just so much practical industry knowledge about what you need to do when you are a business owner and you have all of these new ideas. We had a blast talking through this conversation and I know that you are gonna love it, so I cannot wait for you to tune in to today's show.

On today's short, real talk ya'll!! I want to talk to you about free, versus paid education and friends, we are gonna have a real heart to heart today on this podcast.

Now, the reason that this is coming up is because recently a coach friend of mine in the industry. (I did ask if I could share this story with my listeners. And she said, yes)

She reached out and asked, how would I respond to this email from a client?

She received an email from a student that purchased her signature course. The student wrote, the course was wonderful, but I've been watching your free content for years, and I feel like now there really wasn't much, in the course that you hadn't already taught through your free content... so I would like a partial refund on my purchase of your course.

Today I would love for you to listen to my heartfelt, real explanation on the benefits of paid versus free education.

In today's short, we are talking about the Valley of Despair.
I have been talking to so many of you that are building these incredible wedding businesses. A lot of you are reaching out. Saying, "Brandee, it feels like such a weight right now. I feel like I'm kind of finding success, but then it all falls apart."

Or...

I feel like I am booking lots of business, but I don't know how to build a team, or, I have been doing social media consistently, but it doesn't seem like that's working and it can be so frustrating, right?

And this is oftentimes what we call the Valley of Despair. I have been to the valley and lived to tell the tale. :)

May this Short of the Wedding Pro CEO Podcast be helpful to anyone who finds themselves in that dry Valley of Despair.

Keep going!

I want to talk to you about your biggest obstacle in your business. When somebody asks you what are you struggling with, what do you feel like is the thing that's really holding you back the most in your business?

How would you answer that question?I bet you'd say things to me like:
I can't get enough clients.
 I'm not really sure if my pricing is right.
I'm trying to build a team, but I'm not sure what to do next.
 I want to make more profit in my business.
I wanna pay myself more.

But here's what I think the answer is. I think the biggest obstacle in your business is you. Listen now and agree or disagree but promise to let me know why.

I am answering all of your most burning questions.

A few weeks ago, I dropped a thread in our community on Facebook, the Wedding Pro CEO Community, and I asked you if we were having a cup of coffee at a cute little cafe, what would you want to ask me?

What questions do you have to help you take your business to the next level?

And today I'm answering some of those questions right here on the podcast.

Here are your questions:

*1. "What is the number one thing you would do if you were trying to quit your job and go full-time?"

1. "How can we develop a strong routine where we keep ourselves accountable to get things done on a daily basis instead of getting distracted by our personal life?"

2. "How long before you actually understood all the things about a legit budget?"
   4. "What has been your biggest struggle personally while building your business?"

Learn why a vision board is not be the most effective way to reach your goals. This episode is about Vision Boarding: Why it's ineffective and what to do instead. A vision board has no plan and no time frame, so it doesn't give you the ability to reach your goals. Instead, setting goals and creating a plan to achieve them is the best way to reach success. The goal should be specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-specific.

As you're going into a new year, it's so important to do a year in review, not only to assess if you met your goals or if you had any goals that you fell short on, and still want to pursue.

You also need to consider, what were the things that weren't even a goal? They weren't even on your radar at this time last year? But you were able to, take advantage of some really cool opportunities throughout the year.

Those can be forgotten so often, and so it's important to give yourself those wins!

Listen in for inspirations to reflect and be thankful for all that you have accomplished in your business!

Let's talk about overhead. This is almost like a dirty word in the wedding industry, right? Very often, when I sit down with a new wedding pro business owner that is ready to scale their business, one of the first conversations we have is about their numbers.

When I ask, "Okay, tell me about your overhead."

The answer I notoriously get is, "Well, I don't really have much overhead. Like a couple things here and there."

I follow with, "Well. We're going to actually show that you have a ton of overhead by the end of this conversation."

Listen now as I talk about the majority of overhead in the wedding industry is LABOR and how to navigate and control this expense.

Today I’m talking to business strategist and long time wedding pro, Kristina Stubblefield. She’s finding ways to use all her experience to address two simple demands in the industry. 1. Engaged couples need access to who they want to hire. 2. Wedding pros need to connect with their ideal clients. Kristina’s found a platform get all these folks in the same room.

Doesn’t this create a lot of competition for vendors? While you might think so, Kristina is unpacking why community over collaboration is more than a warm fuzzy hashtag. It’s what happens when you prioritize relationships and serving in your biz.

Also key in this episode is the reminder to “slow down to speed up”. It may sound weird, but if you are rolling out - say - a new offer or community, you have to check your budget first. Yes for the cash, but maybe more importantly time. Can you be consistent in showing up to serve? Answering that question could save your sanity!

A few weeks ago one of my CEO Mastermind members showed me a Reel she had that was blowing up!

Over 12k views in an hour! Whoa! It was so exciting (especially because I've spent 8 months trying to get her to start making reels!).

When she asked what was causing this one to blow up, I had to give the honest answer that "no one really knows why some reels go viral and others just die". Outside of the basic 101 elements like use great lighting, be easy to understand and provide great value, some reels just take off for no reason.

BUT...as business owners, we shouldn't really care how many views our reels get. GASP. I know....it's super fun to see that number climb. But at the end of the day, we aren't trying to become influencers. We need buying clients or we're out of business.

Businesses Changed. Lives Enhanced. CEOs Created. Community Built.

THIS was the #WPCEO Summit!

What started as an idea to bring business education to the middlepreneurs of the wedding industry, became a movement to build up a new generation of wedding pros who are building profitable businesses we love.

And while on social media it may have looked like an idea that came to life overnight, there was SO much behind the scenes fear, heartache, and downright imposter syndrome that almost caused this event to never even take place.

Want a peek inside what actually happened in planning the Wedding Pro CEO Summit?? I'm giving you ALL the juicy details that you didn't get to see on the gram!

Being an entrepreneur can be incredibly lonely.

Even with the most supportive friends and family cheering you on, it's hard for them to understand exactly what you go through on a daily basis of running your business.

And while Facebook groups and online forums are great for connecting with other like minded entrepreneurs, there is something incredibly powerful about breaking bread and talking shop with other CEOs just like you!

Today I'm talking about the power of in person community. Why it's imperative to your business success and your mental health as a CEO.

AND I'm offering 1 last opportunity to join us at The Wedding Pro CEO Summit this August in Orlando, FL! A powerful 3 days to build community in person with other like minded CEOs and educators to help you build the profitable business you've always dreamed of!

That you KNOW will make a distinctive difference in your business and your life.

As business owners, we often forget that our service isn't about us...it's about them. We have a solution to the problem our ideal clients have.

Not only is it necessary to know what problem you solve BEFORE you create your business, it's even more necessary as you start to sell your services. Why does someone NEED your business? Why can they not live without you? How will you make their life easier, better, etc...?

In today's episode of The Wedding Pro CEO Podcast, I'm talking with Eddie Babbage, creator of Timeline Genius all about how he founded TG, what gave him the idea and how he has grown his company to be one of the most used tools in the wedding industry! His story will definitely surprise you and inspire you to grow your own company even further!!​​

Before I used Interact for both of my businesses, I thought I could just sit down, pop out a few questions, write some cute answers, and be done — but it actually made me sit down and critically think about my clients’ journey in ways I didn’t imagine.

Interact, I believe, is really changing the game when it comes to quizzes. Since using Interact, I’ve been able to go into consults more confident because I’m more informed about their goals and current situation. It’s helped me navigate conversations with potential clients in a more efficient way.

Josh, the founder of Interact, is here to expand more on this and why quizzes, and specifically a robust software like Interact, can help you gain more leads (and book more clients) with ease and efficiency!

Hold on — before you get the urge to exit out because the word 'sales' was mentioned, I totally understand that sales doesn't always feel like the most fun topic to talk about.

As service-based entrepreneurs, many of us can relate to this uncomfortable feeling that can crop up when it comes time to sell our services. You might even feel icky just thinking about it.

Maria is here to change the narrative around selling and help make it not just easier for you but also more enjoyable and authentic. (Yes, it’s possible!) It's why I can’t WAIT for you to listen to this episode because she is going to light a fire in your belly with a new way of thinking about sales!

Today's episode is an incredibly important one because we're talking about women in wealth and finances. As young women become more financially savvy, being included more in the board rooms, and wealth is evening between men and women, there's a bigger need to offer resources that help us women navigate the world — a world where industries are still constructed around the way men think about and use money.

This is the exact support Bernadette Girvin and Michelle Taylor provide with Women In Wealth.

Today, they're going over questions you can ask your potential financial advisor so you can find a right-fit relationship, why investments are important, and how to tailor your financial goals to your business and lifestyle.

It’s been a while since we’ve talked about Pinterest on the She Who Dares podcast, but that doesn’t mean it’s any less important to include in your marketing strategy — especially as creative entrepreneurs and wedding professionals!

Today I’m sitting down with Kristy Rice of Momental Designs and Paint Crush to talk about something I struggle with a lot: the guilt of balancing being a mom, CEO, wife, mentor for your team, and just all the things.

This might be one of my favorite episodes to date because Kristy keeps it so real and unapologetic in this episode. It’s something many of us deal with but don’t talk about a lot, so I found talking to her refreshing, encouraging, and hopeful. If you also deal with parent/entrepreneur guilt, I know you’ll feel the same.

LISTEN FOR THESE NUGGETS DURING THE SHOW:

Meet Kristy Rice and listen to her journey into the wedding invitation and art space!

Integration versus compartmentalization as a business owner and parent.

Getting creative (and a bit weird) when balancing your time and family time.

Letting go of the guilt for reserving time for yourself.

Figuring out that “thing” that fills your cup and creating pockets of moments for alone time.

Working ahead so you can spend time with your family.

In today's age of social media, it's easy to look like you have a thriving business and you have all of the expert tools! But what about actually having those tools when you need them?

Exposure is wonderful and being visible is a huge piece of a successful business but development for yourself as a business owner, leader and CEO is imperative to making sure your business is built on a solid foundation.

Take some time to assess your development and look for areas where you can improve your foundation! You definitely don't want to be overexposed but underdeveloped!

Our guest today, Irene Tyndale, is one of the most positive and encouraging people I know, and I’m thrilled that you’re here to tune in to our conversation today!

In this episode, Irene shares her story about she went from getting fired from working at a hotel to one of Georgia’s most successful wedding planners and business mentors. She is also talking about a topic that I actually don’t focus on a lot, but definitely needs time in the spotlight: being of service to your clients as someone who works in a service-based job.

I admit that I focus a lot on the business side because that’s usually where creative entrepreneurs need help the most. However, sometimes, we can get so caught up in the business side of things that we sometimes forget that we’re here to service our clients first and foremost.

As I’ve been getting much more interested in SEO and my companies’ strategy around it, I’ve been inviting more SEO experts to the podcast to learn along with all of you about SEO!

Before really getting into it, I didn’t think it was the most exciting topic — and I know I’m not alone in thinking that. However, after talking to some great SEO experts, like Adrienna McDermott who is our guest today, I’ve realized that SEO can actually be fascinating! (And not as scary as I once thought.)

Today, Adrienna is going to walk us through the biggest myths about SEO and blogging, plus some prompts you can use for your blogging strategy!

I think I speak for most of us — including me! — when I say that SEO (search engine optimization) can feel incredibly overwhelming and confusing. That’s right, I need this episode as much as anyone out there who has struggled with the SEO strategy aspect of the business!

As SEO expert for wedding professionals, Sara Dunn, will teach us today that SEO isn’t as simple as stuffing your website with a single keyword. There are quite a few pieces to the puzzle. However, she’ll also teach us that we often overcomplicate the process, especially if we’re just getting started on trying to rank better on Google!

Today on the podcast, we’re talking about a topic that’s very near and dear to my heart: systems and organization! Angela Mondor is the founder of Geeky Girl, and she helps business owners keep their businesses and projects on task. She’s also a vetted Clickup consultant, and that’s the focus of our topic today!

I’m only vaguely familiar with Clickup, but I’m a project management software aficionado, so having Angela on the podcast was super helpful! If you’ve been eyeing Clickup and wondering how it compares against other platforms, tune into this episode to hear Angela explain the benefits of Clickup and how it can enhance your existing CRMs.

I'm so excited to have you tune in to this week's episode because Renée Sabo is going to teach you all about emotional marketing, and how to use it to attract more of your ideal clients!

Marketing in a creative industry is a bit different than most other markets — listing out bullet points that explain our services isn't usually enough to help us book the type of clients we want to work with. So that's where emotional marketing comes in!

Renée Sabo has been using emotional marketing in her wedding business to grow, and help her create a marketing strategy that helps her book more of her ideal clients. Tune in to learn how you can do the same!

Friends, do I have a special guest for you today because we’re featuring someone who is excellent at sales calls! Meet Carissa Woo, founder and lead photographer of Carissa Woo Photography.

I am thrilled to have her in the studio because Carissa is an OG wedding pro. She's been in the wedding industry for over a decade, so you bet she is very familiar with growing and sustaining a business. What we’re focusing on today is a method Carissa developed after years of being in the industry: the 6 steps for mastering the sales call.

Many clients come to me dreading the idea of pitching a sale to their clients. But that’s often because they’re only thinking of the sleazy carmen sales tactics we’re all too familiar with. Carissa is completely reshifting our idea about sales with her unique soft selling approach, and she’s going to share that step-by-step method in today’s episode. So, grab your notebook and a big cup of coffee, and let’s dive in!

Seeing that we’re smack dab in the middle of the holiday season, I wanted to share my exact strategy (literally, step-by-step!) on how we stay consistent with our marketing strategy at my coaching business, Brandee Gaar, and my wedding planning company, Blush.

I knew I had to sit down and record this episode because it’s been a huge topic of interest in our CEO Mastermind Group. We are busy entrepreneurs, and it can feel impossible to keep up with our ever-growing to-do list. That is, unless you have a well-thought out plan.

Grab a notebook, turn off your notifications, and let’s dive into how you can create a marketing plan for the busy season!

I invited Braden Drake, a CA-licensed attorney and tax professional, to sit down in the studio to break down what it means to have a part-time versus full-time business. He is also going to demystify a lot of complicated (but necessary) topics such as what you actually need to set up your business legally, how to figure out what your tax implications are, and the truth about bookkeeping.

In reality, building a business often happens in stages, so you don't have to stress too much about which stage you're in right now, as long as you're striving towards your goals! But no matter if you are a part-time, full-time, or soon-to-be full-time business owner, one thing is sure: you should be treating your business like a business!

Maybe our guest for today seems familiar to you, and you would be right! We’ve had the lovely Amanda Shuman of Carrylove Designs on the She Who Dares podcast before to talk about the 4 Phases of Creating a Cohesive Brand.

And today, we’re taking a deeper dive into that conversation because we are talking about the two rebrands my businesses just went through!

That’s right — both Blush and my own coaching business just went through a rebrand process with Carrylove Designs. It’s been such an enlightening experience, and I learned so much about my brands that I wasn’t aware of before. So, I knew I had to get Amanda on the podcast to talk more in-depth about my own experience, and also what you can expect if you decide to go through a rebranding process.

Plus, stay tuned for a giveaway opportunity!

Lynne Reznick, the founder of Lynne Reznick Photography, is in the studio today! I'm thrilled she could come onto the podcast because we are talking about an often underappreciated piece of the client experience. Those are what Lynne calls "no one else moments."

"No one else moments" is a personalized experience where you surprise your clients as you work together. Their purpose? To create lasting memories or wow-factor moments. These are what takes the services you offer from good to oh my gosh, I need to refer this person to everyone I know.

Alan Berg is a speaker, author, and sales trainer and he recently published a new book called Why Are They Ghosting Me? Wedding & Event Pro Edition: 9 Reasons Why They're Not Replying To Your Emails and Messages — And How to Fix Them. As the title suggests, he covers nine of the most common reasons you’re getting ghosted and detailed tips on how to fix them.

Though his book is geared towards wedding and event professionals, I know you’ll still get a ton of useful information from this episode if you have any type of service-based business. Because although it seems like a harmless metric, the ratio of inquiries to bookings you receive can tell you a lot about how you can improve your customer experience. In the episode, Alan shares why this is the case and gives us a glimpse into the tips he mentions in his book to avoid frequent ghosting.

P.S. Make sure you stay until the end of the episode because we have a special discount only for the She Who Dares podcast listeners!

Today's conversation is about a topic that is very close to my heart: Instagram! And sure, some people may roll their eyes because when we think of Instagram these days we tend to think of influencers, mass followings, and sponsorships. But for those of us in the wedding industry, Instagram is used for a completely different reason.

Bianca Trevino, our guest for today, knows this better than anyone. Bianca is the founder of The Wed Strategy, an Instagram marketing resource for wedding professionals, and Bianca Nicole and Co, a wedding planning firm in Austin. She saw a gap in the Instagram marketing space when she was trying to learn how to grow her wedding planning business because most courses and resources focused solely on growing your account as a personality or influencer. There was no marketing information specifically for wedding professionals who aren't necessarily trying to make it "huge" but rather just trying to become more visible within their market and to book more clients directly from Instagram.

My guest today is Michelle Seiler Tucker, and if you don’t already have the pleasure of knowing her, I am thrilled to introduce you all to her! Michelle is the author of Exit Rich, the founder and CEO of Seiler Tucker The Business Authorities, and certified (ready for it?) Merger & Acquisition Master Intermediary (M&AMI), Senior Business Analyst (CSBA), and M&A Advisor (CBB). With over 20 years of experience in business acquisition, it’s safe to say she knows her stuff!

In our conversation, we talked about having exit strategies. If you’ve been a listener for even just a short amount of time, you know how passionate I am about teaching entrepreneurs they should always know the destination of their company so they can build a business rather than a job. And with that, comes knowing your exit strategy.

You’ll want to grab a notebook before hitting play on this episode because Michelle is taking a deep dive into, first, why it’s crucial to make your business sellable. And second, the points you need to be aware of so you can start building a business that provides you with an opportunity to sell.

Since we’re at 100 episodes, it felt like the perfect moment to talk about a pattern I’ve noticed as I’ve been coaching a lot of wedding professionals lately, and that’s the three stages of business.

In my own businesses, I can see these phases play out, and I believe it’s really important to distinguish which stage you’re at so you can listen to relevant advice and do the things you need to do to move the needle forward in your business, sustainably. Enjoy!

Most of you who clicked on this episode today are already familiar with the intelligent, creative, and brilliant Shannon Underwood! Shannon is the co-creator of the Wedding MBA, one of the largest education conferences in the country!

I love this episode because we take a little trip back in time to visit the days when Shannon was a little girl and her parents created what would soon be known as one of America's largest bridal shows.

We talk a lot about how the show has changed since then, her process of acquiring educational speakers, and the overall goals of the Wedding MBA. Then, Shannon gives a ton of great tips on how to get the most out of your conference experience, whether you're a first-timer or a seasoned attendee.

Friends, oh my!!! I have an exciting episode for you today! I had the honor of having David Tutera on the podcast and let me tell you — this man has no shortage of entertaining stories to tell and invaluable lessons to share.

What I love most about David, and why I wanted to have him on the podcast, is because he's demonstrated so much resilience and courage throughout his career. He's open about his past challenges because he's been able to find the humor in them, turn these challenges into lessons, put them into action, and he went on to conquer the wedding and events world.

No matter if you're just starting out on your entrepreneurial journey or you're a seasoned CEO, I know you'll learn so much from our conversation about resilience and courage.

Amanda Shuman is the founder of Carry Love Designs — a digital marketing agency focused on branding and web design for service-based businesses. 

Back in college, she was sure her path was to work with esteemed Pose Magazine (yes, the same Pose magazine as the one in 13 Going on 30). But after taking a branding class where she had to rebrand a business, she fell in love with the idea of branding and never looked back!

Within her agency, she takes her clients through four major phases of creating a cohesive brand. Lucky for us, Amanda is lifting the curtain behind her process to share how we can implement these same strategies in our own businesses!

Everyone tells us that networking will help our wedding business grow, but do you ever head home after a cocktail hour with a stash of bent business cards you have no idea what to do with? 

Networking tends to get a bad rap—lots of handshakes and lackluster exchanges, but not much impact beyond that.

That's why I'm sharing the behind-the-scenes and untold networking tips no one talks about. The steps you should take to actually build mutually beneficial relationships that help you open doors you couldn't open yourself.

The key??? To focus on how to serve others, always. Listen in to discover tips for networking that actually makes a difference in your business.

Tamara is an integrator queen from sunny Orlando, Florida who is the backbone behind my brands!

Her business operations background, alongside her powerhouse team of VAs, is what literally keeps my business running day-to-day.

Most wedding professionals hear about a VA and say "Yes, please!" but aren't sure what level of support we can get beyond that.

Today, Tamara's walking us through three roles that can support your business based on the level of your operations. These are roles you might not have even known existed, but once you figure out what they can do, will have you outsourcing as quickly as you can!

EPISODE DESCRIPTION

Welcome to Episode 71!

Christine Hughey's started her Downtown Nashville food tour, A Little Local Flavor, with the goal to put at least $1million dollars back into locally owned businesses (with a $0 ad budget and 136 other tour companies in the city).

So she decided that extremely high-quality service would be most important for her to STAND OUT!

Pre-pandemic they were rated 5 out of 152 tour companies in Nashville. And in August of 2020 on TripAdvisor, they ranked in the top 10% of attractions worldwide.

She accomplished this all with word of mouth, five-star reviews, and a five-star experience.

In today's episode, we are talking about the little things in your business.

How they add up, why they matter in your business, and steps you can take to earn those raving reviews.

And specifically, how your street cred can carry you through any difficult season in your business—even a pandemic.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION

Welcome to Episode 70!

Instagram reels are not going anywhere anytime soon.

What I hear from wedding pros avoiding them like COVID—other than not wanting to dance—is they don't have time.

But guess what? With reels, you don't have to create new content. You just have to create the same content you're already making in a new way.

In today's episode, I'll walk you through three ways our brands are using reels in a super simple way to boost our organic website traffic.

If you're stuck with where to start, go over to my Making a Reel Plan. Grab 101 reels prompts to start growing your organic strategy right now.
