GREAT GREAT post! It’s refreshing to see this in the wedding industry. As a person that spent 10+ years in Corporate America, having a value proposition was part of everyday life. Having a 1-page slick showing what we did for our clients was a great tool to have when having those difficult conversations about “why should I use you” or “how are you different”? This can easily be translated into any business culture and I encourage everybody to think about it can help your business.

I am in the process of developing mine (as a newly established planner) and can’t wait to see what Sage Wedding Pros comes up with!

Thanks again,

Heather

Hi Michelle! I couldn’t agree more with this post. Putting your value proposition in writing for your clients (be it on your identity pkg, proposals or web site) will only reinforce their reason(s) for hiring you. And it doesn’t hurt to remind the business owners themselves of their promises/commitment to their clients. I can’t thank you enough for all of the valuable information you continue to supply every week. Cheers! Raquel

Great post, Michelle. I have such a unique niche, bridal coaching, that I spend a lot of time talking about how I’m different from a planner (they plan the details and I help manage emotions) and how my services can make planning a much happier experience. It may take a while but I know Brideability will catch on.

Such a great post. I find that most professional wedding vendors dedicate more time to their logos, twitter updates and industry events than they do on actually trying to confirm in the mind of their potential customers that their professional services are the right choice for their needs. Distinguishing yourself from other vendors in your bridal niche (whether it be wedding planning, catering, music or etc.) is not only a wise business move, it should be an ongoing process in qualifying yourself as the best choice when it comes to that specific service offered. Listing your value propositions is a great (and simple) way to let people know how your services are different, better and more valuable than others they might run across in your niche. Great post.
