Episode Summary:
In this episode of the Wedding Business Solutions podcast, I tackle the challenge of selling a new product or service without any reviews – that classic "chicken and egg" problem. I share some strategies to get past this hurdle, such as creating compelling visuals through styled photo shoots and leveraging peer reviews from industry collaborators. I stress focusing on the results you can provide, which are more impactful than just detailing your products or services. It’s essential to share your unique experience and story to stand out. I also suggest using platforms like Google, Facebook, and Yelp to gather early reviews and testimonials — even from guests and peers. Lastly, I emphasize using concise testimonial snippets in your marketing efforts. Whether you're starting fresh or looking to boost your current strategy, I offer practical insights to help you build momentum in your business.
