007: Real Talk: Community Over Competition
Hey planners! We've said it before and we'll say it again... Competition is healthy and can benefit your wedding planning business. We're big believers in the notion of community over competition so we decided to dedicate today's real talk episode to this topic. We discuss our views on community over competition and how to find joy in cheerleading other planners. We explore how to cultivate a community, why you need to find your own lane and how being a good human comes first (then profit will follow!)
What's in this episode:
- What community over competition means to us
- How to find joy in cheerleading for other planners
- What you can do to differentiate yourself in a new market
- Why you need to find your own lane and authentic self
- What it looks like to welcome competition
- The mindset of being a leader for your clients on the wedding day
- What you can do to start cultivating a community
