There was a season where I’d get so many inquiries, but if a bride didn’t reply right away, I’d just… let it go. Part of me was scared to “bother” them, part of me just got busy with weddings, and part of me thought—“If they wanted me, they’d have booked already.” But then slow season would hit and I’d realize I had let dozens of inquiries slip away because I didn’t have a plan to follow up. 🙃 And THAT felt worse than sending a “bothering” email. So I made follow-up part of my CEO Monday ritual (and later automated it) One day, one hour where I: - Check who hasn’t replied. - Send my pre-written “nurturing follow up” DM or email. - Track where they’re at (ready, waiting, or ghosted). It feels sooo much lighter to start the week with a clean slate instead of a pile of “what if’s.” The to-do’s: 📓 Journal Prompts:→ Who ghosted me last week, and how can I follow up differently?→ Did I give enough VALUE in my last message or was I just “checking in”?→ What did I do that built momentum this week?→ Celebrate one win from follow-up, big or small.→ One goal for this weeks inquiries. 💻 Business: - Review open inquiries in your inbox - Write/send your follow-up messages - Track which ones book after - Plan your next DM story CTA for inquiries 📲 Personal: - Do laundry or drop off dry cleaning - Pay a bill you’ve been ignoring 👀 - Organize your fridge or pantry - Knock out one random errand you keep saying “later” to Your homework this week → follow up with one inquiry you’ve been avoiding. Heres an email template you can send! Your note to self 👉🏼 Sometimes we’re the only bottleneck by feeling like we’ll *annoy* her for sending another email or DM or text.😅 Full send today bosses!

Just wanted to share my first time doing glam waves! The odds were kind of against us here... bride switched to glam waves after first trial and didn't have time to book a second one, bought clip in extensions that she hadn't used before and wasn't sure if the color would match (her fiance ordered them and somehow picked the PERFECT extensions), and I've never actually done glam waves before this😅 I watched Marissa's glam waves theory and demo (multiple times lol) to prepare and it helped SOOO much! I can absolutely see where I need to improve and pivot with my technique but I'm really proud for this being my first attempt🤭 Would love any additional tips or advice though for how you handle glam waves!

✨ CEO Challenge: Upsell a Service ✨ Your brides already trust you why not give them the option to level up their experience? Upsells like touch-ups, two looks at trials, or rehearsal glam = more income without more brides. That's how we work smarter, not harder, earning more working less weddings. Your future self has a list of upsells that her ideal brides love and she sells them confidently! 💬 What upsell feels most natural for you to add on your brides?
