Are you frustrated with the constant struggle of chasing low-quality leads from The Knot and WeddingWire? You’re not alone.

In this episode, I’m chatting with Katherine Hunter, a wedding celebrant who found herself in the same position—spending money on The Knot and WeddingWire and getting ghosted by leads who just weren’t a good fit.

But instead of staying stuck in that cycle, Katherine took a bold step. She built her own lead-generating machine that brings in high-quality, perfect-fit clients and completely cut ties with The Knot and WeddingWire saving her $4200 per year and hours each week chasing leads that ghosted her.

In this episode, you’ll hear exactly how she did it—and how you can apply the same strategies to take control of your lead generation, build better relationships with venues, and attract the clients you actually want to work with.

If you’re ready to stop wasting time and start booking more of your ideal clients, this episode is for you.

How do you showcase your personality in your wedding business without feeling unprofessional? In this episode, I’m joined by Andrea Shah, a website copywriter for wedding pros, to tackle that exact question.

We dive into why showing off your personality is key to building trust and connection with potential clients—especially Millennials and Gen Z couples who are all about personal connections with their vendors.

Andrea shares practical strategies that help you highlight your unique self in a way that feels authentic and resonates with your ideal clients. We’ll talk about balancing personal stories without oversharing, using humor and storytelling, and making your “About” page work harder to attract the right couples.

We also break down some common misconceptions around professionalism and why being yourself doesn’t mean you have to be stiff or formal.

You’ll learn how to use your voice, your quirks, and even pop culture references to stand out in a crowded market. If you want to attract the right clients by simply being yourself, this episode is for you!

So many frustrated wedding professionals come to me with the same question time and time again: “Why am I not booking more weddings? I’m getting myself out there, but it’s just not working.”

I cannot tell you how many times I’ve heard this exact same question in the past 12 years of doing this work. So there’s something I want you to know about marketing because I feel like marketing is this kind of weird mystery to a lot of people.

There’s only one thing that your marketing needs to do for you to book more weddings.

It needs to position you as the best choice for your potential client. And that’s actually what creating the right marketing plan for your business does while saving you a ton of time and overwhelm.

Are you struggling with fewer leads and bookings in your wedding business?

Are you getting ghosted? You’re not alone!

Many wedding pros are facing this challenge right now. In this episode, we're diving into why you're getting ghosted by potential clients and, more importantly, how you can stop it from happening.

One of the biggest frustrations wedding pros share with me is getting ghosted. It’s so disappointing to get excited about an inquiry only for that person to disappear, often leading you to think it’s because of your pricing.

But here’s the thing – ghosting is rarely about your prices. Most people underprice themselves, and the real reason you’re getting ghosted has nothing to do with being too expensive. The real issue is that you’re not standing out from others who offer the same services.

You might think you're standing out but you're probably not. If you’re ready to stand out so you can book more weddings and get ghosted less often, this episode is for you.

When you need more leads and booking for your wedding business you may wonder if advertising makes sense for you. But where should you advertise?

Most wedding pros immediately think of WeddingWire and The Knot but those aren't your only options (and they may not be the best ones for your business. When you advertise on Google, Instagram, Facebook, or TikTok, you can meet your ideal clients where they are and generate leads with more specific targeting than you can on WeddingWire & The Knot.

Just like marketing, the world of advertising is always changing and I've invited an advertising expert to share what's working with advertising now. We also discuss why some wedding pros are seeing amazing results while others are struggling so you can make sure your advertising works well for you and you get a solid return on your investment.

So many wedding pros have told me this year that they're not getting enough leads or they're not getting enough good leads.

Maybe it's a weird dip from dating coming to a screeching halt during the pandemic, maybe it's the economy, maybe it's something else happening in the world.

But we can't do anything about those. What we can address, is the root cause of not getting enough good leads in any economic climate.

And it's the same root cause as SO many problems wedding pros face like...

• Ghosting
• Price shopping
• Losing perfect clients to your competitors
• Hearing things like "we went in another direction" all the time
• Feeling like you can't raise your prices
• The frustration you feel because you're doing all the things you're supposed to but not getting the leads & bookings you need
• And sooooo many other problems that plague wedding pros!

What is the root cause? Listen to this episode to find out!

Reaching your goals is not complicated, it just feels complicated when you don’t know what steps to take.

It’s great to set goals but if you’re like most people, setting them is kind of where it ends.

How many times have you set a goal for yourself and felt like you were just spinning your wheels trying to reach it?

We’re led to believe that we should set goals, work hard, and somehow we’ll magically reach them.

The truth is…it’s not enough to just have a goal, work hard, and hope for the best. And in this episode, I’m unveiling a new way to reach your wedding business goals.

A lot of wedding professionals I talk to are stressed. They have a lot on their plate and feel pulled in a million different directions.

It’s the default operating system for wedding pros. But that doesn’t mean you have to continue to operate that way.

Everything I’ve done in the last 12 years of working with wedding pros has been about creating more ease, more freedom, and more flexibility.

I’ve made it my job to find the easy way to grow a thriving wedding business so you don’t have to feel stressed out all the time.

As part of that process, I developed my 90 Day Planning Method to make it easier for wedding pros like you to reach their goals.

Today I’m going to share exactly why this alleviates stress and isn’t just another task to do. It’s more like more like a healing potion in a video game. It makes everything else work better.

Most wedding professionals think they’re not booking more weddings because they’re not marketing enough. They think they just need to “get themselves out there” and the bookings will come.

But the real reason why you’re not booking more reasons has nothing to do with that.

In fact, most wedding pros are spending too much time on random marketing without seeing results.

The real reason you’re not booking more weddings has nothing to do with how talented you are, how experienced you are, or how many hours you spend creating amazing Instagram posts.

It’s far simpler than that and that’s why most wedding pros miss it. And when you address it, you can cut your marketing time down by 80% on average and book more weddings.

Want to know the real reason why you’re not booking more weddings? Listen to this short podcast episode to find out!
