The Vendor Besties Podcast

How the heck do you decide on pricing? 

We're back at The Belle and welcoming Diana as our guest! Diana wears many hats at The Victorian Belle but is primarily in charge of the wedding side of the business.

We discuss how our individual resources and situations make a big difference in how we determine our pricing structures, including where to start and fast you can raise your prices!

Overselling your product or service means underdelivering... and that just means you become the butt of the joke and the leaf of the tea. 

We're dissing on vendor mistakes and how they can go wrong for the rest of us. (And we don't hate all DJ's... promise!)

And bottom line, what is our responsibility to pick up the pieces when we didn't break the vase?

The first of the Victorian Belle Sessions!

Networking matters! Vendor referrals are possibly the greatest potential for future business. Connecting to a Planner is important, but making real connections with like-minded industry pros will take you farther than simply getting on a "Preferred Vendor List."

Don't go it alone, even Batman had an entourage!

The truth? The majority of businesses in the wedding industry are small businesses trying to keep the lights on, and pricing is just math.

What does it cost to wash rentals and cake pans? To pay the power bill? To invest in and replace gear? 

What is our experience worth in dollars?

It's all just math. Just make sure you're not undercharging just to fill your calendar... or overcharging without having a product or service that meets that higher standard!
