Most wedding professionals are taught to grow by way of digital marketing, but there’s something with a much higher ROI - relationship marketing. When you compare what you get out of fostering industry relationships with digital marketing, it’s not even close. The former will always win.
One ad can bring in a single wedding. One industry collaboration can bring you hundreds of weddings throughout your lifetime. That’s the kind of ROI marketing dollars will never buy! It doesn’t matter what level you’re at - entry level, high-end or ultra-luxury, investing in relationships will always create the most value.
How do you grow your business and even level up in your clientele without digital marketing? Could introverts actually have an advantage when it comes to networking? How can one industry relationship turn into a lifetime of business?
In this special on-site episode in Venice, Italy, we’re joined by husband and wife duo Cherish and Lindsey Conklin. The co-founders of Le Rêve Films talk about their business, networking and how they grew an ultra-luxury wedding business without paying for a single ad.
