Kelly and I are sooooooo excited for today…
It’s our Anniversary!!!
One year ago today I (Michelle, here) started writing the Sage Wedding Pros blog. I have always found myself having “business-y” conversations with fellow wedding colleagues. I always loved hearing about the strategy of their business. And, often I found myself asking a gazillion dorky questions: “Who is your customer?” “How do you market yourself?” “What is your ROI on that ad?” In return, I would get asked for advice. So, I wanted to get some of these thoughts on paper computer screen. I wanted to take the business of weddings back to basics. And, so I started Sage Wedding Pros as a resource for all of those things that you might learn if you open up a college textbook in finance, accounting, marketing, or operations.
A few months later Kelly joined me to bring our message to the masses in-person. We wanted to take the blog to a deeper level and give people REAL TOOLS for creating a sustainable business. And, because we feel firmly that without a plan, you’ll have a much harder go at being sustainable, we launched The Simple Plan – our easy-peasy approach to writing a business plan in 2 days. VOILA! People nationwide are writing business plans with us… and making big differences in their businesses.
So, today… in honor of our 1 year on this blogging universe… we have 2 fun announcements…
The Simple Plan’s NEW WEBSITE!
We have a new website to learn all about The Simple Plan’s speakers, locations, cities, etc. You’ll be able to find the site by going to: www.TheSimplePlanSite.biz or by clicking the workshop link in the menu bar above. This far more user-friendly than navigating our blog for information. We hope you enjoy it!
