JOIN THE MARKETING SPRINT: https://www.theplannersvault.com/shecreatesbusiness Are you hiding from your clients? This is the question we're asking in Episode 186 of the She Creates Business Podcast. As a marketing coach, I often see wedding pros hiding from their clients. I don't mean they're not on IG Stories (though that's a piece of the puzzle). I mean they're not marketing in a meaningful and impactful way that brings in clients and revenue. I've brought my friend Megan Gillikin...

I like to look outside of the wedding industry when it comes to marketing trends, growth strategies, and predictions. Why? I believe looking completely outside of the wedding industry for new marketing, sales, and growth strategies gives us a competitive advantage and can cleanse our palette from all of the industry noise.

I want this episode to inspire you to get on the blogging/long-form content train in your wedding...

*Warning* If you are not in the mood for some straight talk today, skip this episode. No hard feelings at all. Listen, there are a few foundational principles in life and business we should all follow that will help us get ahead. One of those is "treat others the way you want to be treated." I don't disagree with this at all. However, I think many of us take this to the extreme in the wedding industry and make it an excuse so we don't have to make hard decisions, so we don't have to grow...
