Some people call me an OG of wedding business marketing, but deep down I'm just another person wearing PJ bottoms on Zoom. I swear a lot, I share my struggles, and I don't pretend to be better than anyone else.
Referrals are such a sought after thing in the wedding industry, and rightly so. They make your life easier and they can be a continuous source of great leads. But because referrals are so human and relationship based, it can be hard to figure out what exactly you need to do and how often in order to get more of them. Ah psychology, my favorite part of marketing š
There is a lot of research on referrals but it’s for much larger companies and that only helps us to a certain extent because our industry is much more person to person. And we can build referral strategies based on assumptions, but that often doesn’t work because you don’t have any evidence to go off of. I’m not a big fan of running a business based on assumptions. In fact, that’s a huge part of why I wrote Clone Your Best Clients.
In order to really figure out what’s working and how to build better referral relationships, you need to be able to get inside the mind of other wedding professionals.Ā You can’t exactly go around asking your fellow wedding professionalsĀ “What do I have to do in order for you to send me referrals?”.
But I can!
I’ve put together a referral marketing research survey to get a clearer picture of what’s working and how you can improve your referral marketing and I’m going to use the results to put together resources to help you do just that!
