Wedding planners—are you cutting event management from your services? BIG mistake. If you've hit that “fully booked” stage and think the only way to scale is by eliminating event management, I need you to STOP. Cutting it means losing cash flow, vendor referrals, and a built-in training ground for your team. But here's the good news: you don't have to do it yourself. In this episode, I'll walk you through how to keep event management as a strategic part of your business—so you can scale faster, build a stronger reputation, and create predictable income WITHOUT adding more to your plate.Let's make your business a money-printing machine.

ASK ANDREA:  I have a Tik Tok, Facebook and Instagram. I've decided that I want to focus on Floral and Event Design but I'm not sure what to post on these platforms. I am two years in for my business. I took the first year to learn everything about the industry and this year I am tackling how to position my business. Can you help me on what to post on these various platforms because I am stuck!Starting a business in the event industry is like stepping into a vast, beautifully chaotic world where creativity meets logistics. You've spent the first year learning the ins and outs, and now, two years in, you're ready to establish your brand. You're focusing on floral and event design, which is a fantastic niche with endless possibilities for storytelling and visual expression. But with so many platforms, it can be overwhelming to decide what to post where. Let's break it down.Understanding Each PlatformFirst, it's important to recognize that each platform serves a different purpose and attracts a different audience. You can't approach TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram in the same way. Let's dive into what makes each unique and how you can tailor your content accordingly.1. TikTok: This platform is all about quick, engaging, and authentic content. It's where you show the behind-the-scenes, the real-life moments, and the creative process that goes into your designs. Think of TikTok as your playground—this is where you get to experiment and let your personality shine.What to Post:Time-lapse Videos: Show the transformation of a space from start to finish.Quick Tips & Hacks: Share bite-sized floral arranging tips or event setup hacks.Trend Participation: Use trending sounds or challenges, but put your own spin on them related to event design.Behind-the-Scenes (BTS): Let people see the work, creativity, and sometimes chaos that goes into bringing your designs to life.2. Instagram: Instagram is your digital portfolio. This is where you showcase your best work in the most polished way possible. It's also a place for storytelling—where you can dive deeper into the narrative behind your designs.What to Post:High-Quality Photos: Share professional images of your floral arrangements and event setups. Curate your grid to reflect your brand's aesthetic.Stories & Reels: Use Instagram Stories to share quick updates or more casual content that doesn't fit on the main grid. Reels can be a cross between Instagram and TikTok content—showcase fun, short clips of your work.Client Testimonials: Post quotes or short videos from happy clients talking about your work.Design Process: Share carousels or videos that take your audience through the steps of creating a particular floral arrangement or event design.3. Facebook: Facebook is the platform where you can build a community. It's a place to share longer content, engage in discussions, and reach an audience that values connection and detailed information.What to Post:Long-Form Content: Share blog posts, detailed project overviews, or case studies that highlight your work's impact.Client Spotlights: Feature your clients' events, focusing on their experience working with you. Tag them and encourage them to share it with their network.Event Recaps: Post albums or videos that tell the story of an event from start to finish. Include all the details that show how you transformed the space.Engagement Posts: Ask questions, create polls, or share inspirational quotes to spark conversations with your audience.Creating a Consistent Brand VoiceYour brand voice should be consistent across all platforms, even if the content varies. For floral and event design, think about the emotions and experiences you want to evoke. Your content should reflect the luxury, beauty, and meticulous attention to detail that define your work.Speak directly to your audience with confidence, yet remain approachable. You want to come across as an expert in your field, someone who they can trust to deliver extraordinary experiences.Batching and Scheduling ContentTo keep up with the demands of posting on multiple platforms, consider batching your content. Dedicate a day each week or month to create and schedule your posts. This not only saves time but also ensures that your content remains consistent and aligned with your brand's message.Tools like Later, Planoly, or Hootsuite can help you schedule posts across multiple platforms, so you don't have to worry about it daily.Remember, social media is not just about posting; it's about engaging. Respond to comments, interact with other accounts, and stay active within your online community. This will help you build stronger relationships with potential clients and position your brand as a leader in floral and event design.I hope this gives you a clear path forward. Keep experimenting, keep refining your strategy, and most importantly, keep sharing your passion for design with the world. Your audience is waiting to see the magic you create!Thanks for tuning in today! If you found this episode helpful, don't forget to share it with a friend or fellow designer. Until next time, keep celebrating life, luxury, and love.

This podcast episode delves into a rarely discussed but crucial aspect of the wedding industry: handling potential leads that suddenly ghost professionals after initial inquiries or consultations.  As a wedding planner, I dedicate a tremendous amount of time to my clients and potential clients.  From our initial discovery call to the development of budgets, tasks, term sheets and contracts, I can spend anywhere from 10 - 30 hours on a potential client before they sign and remit their first payment.  And yet, I have gotten ghosted repeatedly.  Why accounts for this poor behavior?  And is anyone willing to discuss it?       MY SERVICESLuxury Wedding Planning: https://www.andreaeppolito.comWedding Business Consulting: https://www.andreaeppolito.com/consultingSpeaking & Appearances: https://www.andreaeppolito.com/speakingOnline Education: https://courses.andreaeppolito.com/ Are you a Wedding Professional?

New Year, New PartnersHappy New Year 2024 and Welcome to Season 7 of the Podcast! In this episode, we are talking about the new year and why it is so important to review your partners and make changes as needed.GOAL SETTING:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOuf5UoFyJEBUY THE GOAL SETTING BOARD:https://shop.andreaeppolito.com/trello_board WHY WOULD YOU CHANGE YOUR PARTNERS:Keeping Up with Trends: The wedding industry is dynamic, with new trends emerging regularly. An established planner might shift their vendor mix to stay current with these trends and offer clients the most up-to-date options in terms of themes, decorations, catering, and technology.Improving Quality and Services: If a planner finds that certain vendors are no longer meeting the high standards expected by clients or themselves, they might seek out new vendors to ensure consistent quality and exceptional service. This shift can also be driven by a desire to provide more unique or specialized services that current vendors don't offer.Cost-Efficiency: Financial considerations can lead to changes in the vendor mix. If a planner finds vendors offering competitive rates for the same or better quality services, they might switch to reduce costs for their clients or improve their own profit margins.Client Demands and Diversity: Different clients have varied preferences and needs. To cater to a diverse clientele, a planner might expand or change their vendor mix to include those who can provide specific cultural, dietary, or stylistic requirements.Vendor Performance Issues: Issues such as reliability, quality of service, professionalism, or even changes in management within a vendor's company could prompt a planner to seek better alternatives.Expanding Network and Collaborations: Building relationships with new vendors can open up opportunities for collaborations that were not possible before. This can lead to exploring new markets, styles, or even geographical areas.Personal and Business Growth: Sometimes, the change is driven by the planner's own growth and evolution in their business philosophy, style, and goals. They might seek vendors who align more closely with their current brand image and future direction.Ethical and Sustainable Choices: There's a growing trend towards sustainability and ethical practices in the wedding industry. Planners may change their vendor mix to partner with those who offer eco-friendly options or adhere to certain ethical standards.BENEFITS OF BRINGING ON NEW COLLABORATORSDiverse Options for Clients: New partners and vendors can provide a wider range of styles, services, and price points. This diversity enables you to cater to a broader spectrum of client preferences and budgets, ensuring that each wedding is unique and personalized.Innovative Ideas and Trends: New partners often bring fresh ideas and stay updated with the latest trends in the wedding industry. By collaborating with them, you can offer your clients the most contemporary and fashionable choices, from decor to catering styles.Competitive Edge: Having a network of varied and reliable vendors and partners can give you a competitive advantage. It demonstrates your capability to handle different types of weddings and challenges, which can attract more clients seeking comprehensive and versatile wedding planning services.Risk Management: Building relationships with multiple vendors and partners can serve as a safety net. If one vendor faces a problem or is unavailable, you have alternative options to ensure that the wedding plans proceed smoothly without significant disruptions.Business Growth and Networking: Establishing connections with new vendors and partners can lead to referrals and joint ventures. These relationships can help grow your business, as vendors often recommend planners they trust to their clients, and vice versa. Additionally, networking within the industry can open doors to more significant opportunities and collaborations.  NOTE: This description contains affiliate links that allow you to find the items mentioned in this video and support the channel at no cost to you.
