Glowup

Craft a social media strategy that not only showcases your expertise but also translates into real-world profits.

Neglecting your social media presence isn’t an option.

We get it—the ever-changing algorithm tends to equal low engagement and visibility for your posts. But 2012 has come and gone, and so have the days when you could share a beautiful photograph, end up on the Explore page, and boost your follower count by hundreds—all from one post. And that’s disheartening, to say the least.

‘Cause, like it or not, your potential clients are looking & doing their research.

But what if you could turn your social media from a time-sink to a lead-generating powerhouse?

Growing Your Audience

Getting more followers doesn’t matter if you’re not reaching the RIGHT people. But you know that social media is one of the most powerful tools to market your business. So how do you set yourself up to be found by people who could actually turn into potential clients or lead to referrals?

Producing Quality Content

These days, your potential clients are going to look you up on social media at some point in the buying journey. And it’s essential that your presence on those platforms shows your expertise, keeps them engaged, and pushes them toward actually inquiring with you.

Redefining Publications

Social media changes the game by giving you the power to share your work instantly and effectively market your business. With strategies like social swarming, you can amplify your reach, create buzz, and attract the right clients without relying on external publications.

Your day is already busy enough—replying to emails, serving your clients, and balancing your personal life—so who has time to dedicate hours to creating content for the ever-growing list of social platforms if it’s not bringing results?

You need a social strategy with substance so you can leverage your social media to bring in bookings.

It’s disheartening to see your carefully crafted posts disappear into the digital abyss, unseen and unengaged with, while you wait endlessly for traditional media to spotlight your work. 

‘Cause honestly? No one has time to wait 10+ months for publications to pick up your latest wedding before it ever sees the light of day. It’s time to refine your approach, strategize your content, and make every post count. You need more than just random advice; you need a proven plan that speaks directly to your market.

It’s time to turn double-taps into dollars.

GET READY TO BUILD A SOCIAL STRATEGY WITH SUBSTANCE

Instagram has 2.4 billion active monthly users, and TikTok has 1 billion. Chances are? Your clients are on those platforms. These days, it’s where most people are turning to find and research their wedding vendors. Social media has become a crucial part of the buyer’s journey, and it’s up to you to leverage it to bring in bookings.

Social media requires a strategy—you’ll never see the results you’re after if all you’re doing is throwing something together just so you can check “post on Instagram” off your task list. You need a true game plan, crafted with the guidance of a media expert who specializes in the wedding industry.
