Join WIPA (wedding pros), local chambers, and ILEA (international live events), to make some good connections in the industry. Offer your services for free ONLY to the planners/agencies, never to the end client. And do it just to showcase what you are doing - make sure to get photo/video content along the way to use that showcase to further promote your biz on socials. Stay away from big-brand weddingwire, theknot, yelp, etc paid services (but def create a free account). My biggest success is SEO long-term, but if you focus on relationships up front, it will pay off sooner.
Yep, I am like 95% confident (external economic factors aside, such as COVID) that we will hit $500k gross next year. Our revenue has been growing at a steady rate since the start, and we just started offering 'revolutionary' AI services which is positioning us for much higher-ticket events in 2024.
What software do you use for the AI services?
Not a software in particular, we process the image through 3rd party APIs in the cloud and automate the POST process and sharing or printing.
