Do you know what a wedding content creator is? Honestly I didn't even know what they did until a couple months ago. In the next couple of years, I think most couples will want to hire one. I met Vivian from a mutual photographer friend and we have become besties. She came to one of my weddings and directed better than me. I was truly impressed. She make amazing video content at weddings with her phone, and edits multiple videos by the end of the night. She also helps small business win in the IG game.

Hot Topic

Wedding Content Creators: Myths & Truths

• Wedding content creators are not professional photographers or videographers: provide candid/bts footage/short form in nature/"missed" moments

• Longevity in the industry: here to stay

• Not just for influencers: for the memories (allows family and friends to enjoy event); for business owners (can use content as marketing materials)

Vivian is a wedding & event content creator based in Los Angeles, CA. She started her business after her group of best friends and herself all got married within the same year and she became the resident "content taker". She realized she uncovered an opportunity to blend her passion for social media and celebrating love stories together through her content creation business. She's so excited to speak with Carissa Woo on her podcast and speak all things weddings and small businesses!

Hot Topic: how to create compelling video that lands you more clients, better clients, and saves you time down the line.

Check out the videos Larry made for me.

https://www.carissawoophotography.com/

https://heckyesmedia.co/about

Larry is a video content strategist. This is different from a videographer who shows up and hands clients a recap/highlight film. Larry listens to your business goals and accesses where video could save you money, time, or increase relationships. No one else in the video segment is serving wedding professionals directly with 1 on 1 service. This is a specialty of his.

What is your best HECK YES technique.

By listening first. Not everyone wants more sales. Some want their time back from onboarding new clients, or from current clients. Video can solve a lot of problems but I have to first hear what a business owner is telling me...and often they dont even know what their problem is but something is slowing them down. My clients will make their money back within 2 sales and their videos will continue to serve them for years.

Hot Topic: You're Marketing by Accident!

- Most wedding pros wake up everyday without knowing how they are going to market their business (the solution to this is to have a marketing plan)

- A big mistake wedding pros make is making too many assumptions about who their ideal clients are (the solution is going deep on customer personas and focusing on their problems/motivations)

- The key to better marketing is not necessarily MORE marketing, it's usually just consistency (the solution here is building marketing habits)

I met Tayler and her hubby at WMBA and I was blown away by them. I was drawn to their booth immediately.

A marketing consultant and small-business builder, Tayler is the Founder of Enji—though you might recognize her from one of her other companies: TAYLRD Media and Designs and Sourced Co.

In her newest endeavor, Tayler is taking everything she has learned over nearly a decade of helping small businesses with marketing to design and build a suite of online marketing tools that fit your lifestyle and make sense for you. Because, while you didn’t sign up to be Chief Marketing Officer of your business, at Enji, we believe becoming one doesn’t have to be so daunting—and our goal is to empower you with the tools and solutions you need to make more informed decisions, use your resources more effectively, get creative with how you connect with customers, and ultimately grow.
