wine fireContinuing the Wedding Planner Mentorship Series is  Fireside Wine With a Wedding Planner, an informal “chat workshop”, which will explore in more detail two of the most popular topics from the Wedding Planner Newcomer PowerLunch #1 on October 25th. You spoke and we listened.  The top two topics requested for more intense detail from our last workshop were:  1) Deciding What You Will Offer (packages, hourly rates, flat fees, the extent of types of coordination/planning/design) and  2)  Marketing & PR for the Independent Contractor & Small Business:  Cost-Effective,  Powerful Methods (including tune-up tips for current endeavors to capture revenue during this prime booking season, which is now through February)

+PLUS+ Bonus Content: delving into the one factor no form, market research, budget projection or potential client filter questionnaire can do for you with regard to sales & booking new business.  We will continue to take a more in-depth look at that #1 Source of Revenue we discussed in our first workshop on October 25th  & the factor many miss when building their wedding planning business.  Bring your most pressing questions, because this informal chat workshop around the cozy fire allows for some personalized consultation!

What makes this workshop especially unique is the intimate nature and the fact we are reserving a whole section for you – the wedding consultant/professional- to bring your most pressing business and marketing questions for professional consulting from an expert – as well as some of your peers.

 

Fireside Wine With a Wedding Planner offers a fresh approach to the term “workshop” in a relaxed, elegant setting with a view around a delicious, cozy fire as we sip wine and Certified Wedding Professional and owner /founder of Santa Barbara Wine Country Weddings & Events & Engaging Inspiration   Kerry Lee (Dickey) Doehr leads the group with key points inviting collaboration and discussion throughout the gathering, sharing many “secrets” she has implemented in her long-standing, successful Santa Barbara wedding planning business for over 15 years.  While this particular workshop is ideal for those who attended the sold-out October 25th workshop, anyone who is in the wedding or hospitality industry is welcome to attend.  In order to keep the nature of this “chat workshop”  intimate and personal, we are limiting it to 15 guests maximum.  If you are interested in attending, please book (info below)  to secure your place.  We are taking advance reservations only, and will not be accepting walk-in’s or “day of” reservations.
