Are you a wedding planner who is just starting out or has been in the industry for a few years?  Do you feel like you’re on an island (not on vacation, LOL), trying to navigate the challenges of building and growing your business alone? If so, you’re not alone. Many business owners, including wedding planners, experience feelings of loneliness and isolation as they embark on their entrepreneurial journeys. I totally understand the feeling and have gone through these feelings at different times in my business journey. In this blog, we will discuss how to find your community and the importance of having a support system as a wedding planner.  

Community helps combat loneliness and isolation

1. Starting a business can be a lonely journey. But when you have a community of like-minded individuals who are also building and growing their businesses, you can find solace in knowing that you’re not alone. You can share your struggles, your successes, and your ideas with others who can relate to your experiences.

Coaching and mentoring provide personalized guidance and support

Education helps fill knowledge gaps

3. As a wedding planner, you may have a lot of experience in event planning, but there may be knowledge gaps in areas such as marketing, finances, or business operations. Education, such as courses or workshops, can help you to fill those gaps and ensure that you’re equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to run a successful business.

When I started my business 10 years ago I had the passion and knowledge to plan weddings and events what I found out quickly was that I need a community, a coach/mentor, and to further my education.  In 2012 after months of research, I found “Weddings for a Living” a blog talk radio program hosted by Debbie Quain. Via this radio program and I learned how to manage my company and made online connections with other new wedding planners who were starting their businesses. It was great connecting and chatting with other women who were on the same journey as I was.

Members in the program, will have access to a wide range of resources, and support to grow their business, increase visibility, and become better CEOs and planners. Our program includes monthly group coaching sessions with live Q&A and educational lessons, a Slack community channel for networking and support, templates and resources to streamline your business operations, monthly Voxer coaching days for personalized guidance, and quarterly review and planning sessions.
