How You Can Save Time and Grow Your Business with WeddingPro

By

Running a wedding business isn’t all glitz and glamour (contrary to what everyone outside of the wedding industry thinks). Sure, you get to plan some pretty extravagant affairs, cater amazing meals for hundreds of guests, and (heck) you may own a venue that can host it all. But, any wedding pro will tell you, for any one flawless wedding there is a ton of imperfect work behind it. That’s because there are more moving parts to a wedding business than people realize and keeping them working in sync (and towards your goals) can be exhausting.

Even the most experienced pro can feel like there isn’t enough time or that their business isn’t growing at the pace they want it to—that’s one of the symptoms of being spread thin. But, in those moments when you find yourself wishing for more time and more clients, the solution isn’t always to add a bunch more moving parts to your business machine—sometimes one is all you need.

When you want to focus on giving each of your couples a high level of service, having the bandwidth to source the best ingredients for your menus, and making the upgrades to your property you’ve had on the list for far too long, WeddingPro can help. From advertising tools that help you save time to marketing tools that help you grow, it is possible to give each of your couples and your business the attention they deserve—without wishing the days were longer. Keep reading to learn more about how advertising with WeddingPro can be just what you need to grow your business and save time while you’re at it.

 

It’s about more than advertising

When you advertise with WeddingPro, you’re investing so much more than a listing in a marketplace—you’re putting the power of the largest wedding network behind your business. That means you get access to all of the research and resources everyone at The Knot and WeddingWire works on. From regular reports of the most up-to-date consumer data to online education and in-person learning opportunities, you can be confident that the answers to your questions (and what you need to grow your business) are always going to land in your inbox or be easy to get. Plus, you never have to feel like you’re going at it alone because you have an entire community to support you!

Pro-tip: Is it time for you to start advertising your wedding business? You’ve probably asked yourself, so we’re sharing our advice to help you make the decision.

 

How WeddingPro can help you save time 

Getting access to tools that help you save time is pretty much one of the best things as a business owner. (Go ahead. You can cross some of those late-night email sessions off of your calendar.) And, when it comes to how WeddingPro can help you go from time-poor to “yeah, I’ve got this,” advertising with us unlocks more than a few powerful tools: 

  • Our FAQs allow you to provide details about your business and give couples a better understanding about your offerings before deciding whether to contact you. That means you can spend less time responding to couples who are still gathering information and more on quality leads that are ready to book!
  • Most couples look for testimonials from previous clients when researching their vendors. The reviews sections on our Storefronts are the perfect one-stop-shop to point couples to and help them solidify their booking decision
  • 82% of couples told us that it’s important for them to see pricing before inquiring. You can save yourself from needing to reply to leads who don’t fall within your price range by adding pricing information to your Storefronts to set expectations 
  • Advertising with The Knot and WeddingWire (a.k.a WeddingPro) gives you access to messaging tools that let you quickly respond to clients and easily manage your leads—helping you stay organized and on top of client details
  • There’s an app for that! Downloading our apps makes it easy to manage your Storefronts and respond to leads while on-the-go

Pro-tip: Don’t forget that advertising is a low-touch marketing channel which means it’s working even when you’re not! Here are two other important reasons you should be advertising.
