Are you struggling with fewer leads and bookings in your wedding business? Are you getting ghosted? You’re not alone! Many wedding pros are facing this challenge right now. In this episode, we're diving into why you're getting ghosted by potential clients and, more importantly, how you can stop it from happening.One of the biggest frustrations wedding pros share with me is getting ghosted.
