Why do I need to network?
Networking is a powerful way to build professional
relationships that can help you build your business. Professional
relationships with colleagues in the wedding industry present many
different opportunities:
- Opportunties to share knowledge and leverage the experiences of
others
- Opportunties to identify new talent that might be interested in growing your business
- Opportunties to build trusted alliances to share bridal leads
What networking opportunities exist for me?
There are national level networking opportunities.
Some of them are specialize in a single domain, such as WPJA
(Wedding Photojournalist Association for Photographers. Others
are grouped around the wedding industry, such as AfWPI (Association for Wedding Professionals International).
Should I share my leads with just anyone?
Much like fishermen don't share their secret
fishing spots with strangers -- neither should you share your leads
with just anyone. Take time to build a trusted network of wedding
professionals with a history of happy satistified clients. A bad referral
can make you look just as bad as the professional who failed to deliver.
