Making it Long Term

One of the reasons we created Wedding State University is because there are so many people who want to be a Wedding Planner/Coordinator and they jump into the business, get clients, start planning, and quit after just a few weddings.  Why did they drop out so soon? Well they simply weren't prepared, they didn't have a mentor or guide, and they got burnt out too quickly.  

It was very sad to me that people didn't stay in a career that could have brought them so much pleasure, because they just didn't have the support and resources they needed to continue on.

Because you are reading this blog, I know that you have a leg up on them.  You have found a resource and support system that can help you stay in this business long term.  This can be your full term career, you can be a professional in the wedding industry.  

It can be frustration when you spend time, money, and hard work trying to create the perfect business and others just print out a business card and say they are a wedding planner. If you are the type that wants to invest long term in this business, I want to bring you  some encouragement, when you see other people jumping into your local industry and under cutting you.  I know They most likely wont be around in a year or so, but if you continue growing and developing your skills, you will. 

Stay encouraged, focused, and ignore the inexperienced, unprofessional newbies. If you continue to learn and grow, you will eventually be at the top of the heap!
