  • Who are you ghosting?
    Oct 30 2024

    Who are you ghosting?

    Have you ever stopped to think about the people you're ghosting in your inbox? Why do we let certain conversations slip while juggling our daily priorities? In this episode, I dive into the notion that we all ghost someone, not out of disinterest, but because other things take precedence. Could there be a parallel in how your potential clients are ghosting you? Let's explore the reasons behind professional ghosting and how to stay top of mind.

    Listen to this new 5-minute episode for fresh insights on managing your follow-ups and understanding the true dynamics behind being ghosted.

    Episode Summary:

    In this episode of the Wedding Business Solutions podcast, I delve into the concept of ghosting, not just from a client perspective but from our own as well. I've come to the realization that all of us are ghosting someone, whether intentionally or unintentionally, due to prioritizing other tasks and life's demands. I discuss how effective follow-ups can help you reposition yourself at the top of someone's inbox, increasing your chances of getting a response. I emphasize that ghosting doesn't necessarily mean disinterest and encourage you to reconsider your own communication habits. This episode aims to provide you with valuable insights to enhance your client interactions and follow-up strategies.

  • That time the wedding company wouldn't get on the phone!
    Oct 23 2024

    That time the wedding company wouldn't get on the phone!

    Are you meeting your customers where they are, or are you frustrating them with rigid communication methods? In this episode, I share a recent personal experience from my son’s wedding planning drama, and we explore the importance of adapting to your clients' preferred communication channels. How can refusing to get on the phone with eager customers impact your business? What steps can you take to ensure you're not missing out on potential sales because you're not accommodating?

    Listen to this new 9-minute episode for key insights on adapting your communication strategies to better meet your customers’ needs and grow your business.

    Episode Summary:

    In this episode of the Wedding Business Solutions podcast, I share a personal story about my son and future daughter-in-law's frustrating experience while planning their wedding. They tried to rent items from a local company but were denied the chance to speak with a representative over the phone. This led me to highlight the importance of meeting customers where they are, whether that means talking over the phone or communicating digitally. I discuss the challenges and missed opportunities businesses face when they fail to adapt to customer preferences. This episode serves as a crucial lesson for wedding professionals on improving customer interactions and sales strategies by accommodating different communication preferences.
