Finding dream vendors

Listen Later

When I first started my business, I had a relationship with a vendor who I engaged to help set up some back-end systems for my customer experience. I was inspired to speak on this topic of finding your dream vendors because this experience was far from a dream. I felt like I was running out of time when I chose this vendor, and our relationship went south pretty quickly. There was no communication, I felt strung along and ended up taking legal advice after they ghosted me. After this experience, I swore that I never wanted a client of mine to ever feel this way. So I want to share that all with you in this episode to help you avoid the mistakes that I made and find the vendors that you dream of working with, which will ultimately lead to an incredible event for you.

In this episode, we’ll be diving into:

  • My negative experience with a vendor for my own business and how it taught me to approach working with people moving forward.
  • The downfalls of being a people pleaser and tips to help you advocate for yourself when a vendor is not communicating well or isn’t keeping up with what you have contractually agreed upon.
  • The red flags to look out for when you engage with a vendor for your event and knowing when it’s time to break up with them.
  • Practical tips for ending the relationship when your vendor and what mistakes to avoid the next time you engage with vendors.

    • Let’s make your events truly special, one conversation at a time.
