Should you treat every lead the same way? What does someone already know about you before they reach out from a wedding expo, website, or a platform like Hitched? In this episode, I ask: does your follow-up need to change depending on where the lead came from—and if so, how? Find out why a “one size fits all” approach may not get you the best results, and discover smart ways to tailor your follow-up messages to increase your responses and bookings.

Listen to this new 8-minute episode for practical strategies to improve your follow-up and convert more leads by understanding where they come from and what they know about you.

What do people really say about your business when you’re not in the room? Is your brand just your logo, your colors, and the fonts on your website? Or is it the promise and story you deliver every time you work an event? In this episode, I explore why your real brand lives in the words and expectations of your customers, and why what they say about you matters much more than any graphic design could.

Listen to this new 6-minute episode for ideas on how to express your brand’s promise, why reviews truly shape your reputation, and how to make sure what people expect matches what you deliver.
