Podcasts about bookings

In this solo episode of Shifting Focus, I'm breaking down the exact steps I took to go from charging half my worth to securing $20,000 wedding bookings in just one year. This is the real behind-the-scenes story of how I rebuilt my business, redefined my brand, and committed to the kind of consistency that actually moves the needle.   I'm sharing the moment things shifted for me, starting with a $7,500 wedding that changed everything. Instead of seeing it as a setback, it became the catalyst that reignited my passion and reminded me what was possible when I treated every project as an opportunity.   We'll dig into how brand perception shapes your pricing, why consistency on social media matters more than ever, and how intentional networking opened the doors to planners and vendors who trusted me with bigger and better work. If you've ever felt stuck, undervalued, or unsure how to elevate your business, this episode is your roadmap.   What you'll learn: • How shifting your brand perception changes what you can charge • Why consistency on Instagram led to over a million monthly story views • How networking and in-person connections accelerated my bookings • The mindset shifts that helped me grow into a luxury creator • Why every project, even discounted ones, can build long-term momentum   Whether you're a filmmaker, photographer, planner, or any type of creative business owner, these lessons apply. This past year has proven that when you get intentional about your brand and how you show up, your business can transform faster than you think.

Grieving the loss of your professional experiences isn't a weakness—it's your nervous system trying to finish a story it hasn't been allowed to tell. This is why losing a creative job, a client, a team, a title, or even the daily rhythm of creative work doesn't just sting us emotionally—it rewires our brain's chemistry. In this episode, we discuss what happens when the routines, recognition, and relationships that fuel your brain's reward system suddenly vanish, and how unprocessed grief can trap you in rumination mode, searching for closure your brain never got.You'll also hear 3 key strategies you can use to process difficult professional experiences, PLUS a very important announcement from Jamie Roberts.

If you've been in the messy middle of your elopement photography business, you know how defeating it can feel. You're showing up, posting blogs, and running ads, but you're still not getting the bookings you've been hoping for. My returning guest, California-based elopement photographer Kristin Smith, has been there too.

Frustrated, they're wondering if the problem is market saturation, high guest fees, or simply the fact that the neighbor's house has a pool.If you've ever launched a property and heard crickets, you're not alone. Sarah and Annette walk through the mindset shift and tactical steps every host needs when bookings aren't rolling in:Stop blaming what you can't control. Saturation, guest fees, and neighbor amenities aren't the full story. Hosts need to focus on the levers they can control.Audit your listing presentation. Are your photos professional, clear, and guest-focused? Is your description highlighting unique value? Is your calendar even open and bookable?Identify true comps. The house with a pool isn't a fair comparison if you don't have one. Focus on properties with similar size, amenities, and guest profiles.Read your analytics. Airbnb's insights show where guests drop off, whether you're showing up in search, and what your conversion rate looks like. Data removes guesswork.Adopt an owner's mindset. Hosting isn't passive income — it's active business ownership. Treat your listing like a product that needs to be tested, tweaked, and improved.At the heart of this episode is a challenge to hosts: take extreme ownership. If your listing isn't getting booked, don't wait for Airbnb's algorithm to save you. The hosts who succeed are the ones who audit their listing, study their competition, and make data-driven changes until they get results.Resources mentioned: YouTube Video: The Secret Airbnb Setting That Improves Listings by 300% – Deep dive into Airbnb settings that can boost visibility and conversions.Mentioned in this episode:Lodgify | Use code TFV20

I'm diving deep into how to market less and still have consistent bookings in your private practice.
