Yes, I think google is the most-used. Thanks for the advice. I had been looking at both of those marketing systems but I really don't have the extra capital to sink into them at the moment. Maybe after a few clients I'll get one of them. Is there one that you prefer over the other? What is the edge that those marketing programs have that can't be found elsewhere?
I must say that I love your website there is so much good info on it! I'm new to this market and my business is new here (I always worked for someone in the US) but I have noticed a few differences. Dresses here are ridiculously expensive for one. If I can recommend one thing to brides its to find your dress, then order it online and just have it altered here. Weddings don't seem to be as big of an ordeal and I don't think rehearsals are common, but I'm sure there is someone out there who will prove me wrong. That being said, there are tons of wedding vendors so the market is there and I suppose it really varies whether you're dealing with a small-town couple or a posh London couple. My business is near Cambridge so there is a mix of small villages and then the city of Cambridge. But, like I said I'm a newbie so we shall see. The national average for wedding budgets here is comparable to the US but I think things are more expensive. Any good marketing tips for newbies? I'm registered for 3 wedding fairs starting this Sunday which I think is a good start. I'm very much open to ideas though :)
Hey Dina! Thanks for the add! I'm not a wedding planner in Canada but a wedding photographer. I've been following your Positively Wed blog ever since you started it up and just randomly happened upon you on here!
Your blog is fantastic! It's a great treasure trove of resources even for someone not involved in the planning side of weddings...although to my brides who don't hire wedding planners, I definitely become their substitute planner. All the best with your new business endeavours this year!!

My idea would be project management! As a professional juggling multiple tasks at one time can prove to be overwhelming and cause even the most ambitious wedding professional to burnout. So the importance of learning to set priorities, time management and how to properly allocate resources is very important. Hope this helps! I make it a PRIORITY to teach any person working with our company {whether full time, part time or intern} the basics of project management! It's what sets me apart from my competition.
Thanks for the friend request and the nice comments! I think you mentioned something about a survey, I'll take a look at it when I get back from vacation. Thanks again!
