No. Not only do I provide a website checklist for ad success that you can give to your brand designer, but I also have several ad strategies that use Instagram alone so you don't miss out on potential revenue.
Unless you're already beyond six figures with ads that aren't discounts/giveaways, you need everything here. 99% of your ad success is rooted in branding and a brand built for referrals is VERY different from a brand build for ads. Almost every single time a client has trouble with ads it's rooted in their branding, pricing, or sales process.
I used to just teach ads, and had a 40% client success rate. Now that I teach everything it's 100%.
Absolutely, I have members booking at $10k, $20k, and even $30k weddings. Advertising at it's core is the process of making something known. Which means if your clients have a social media account and a planner who isn't booking everything for them, they can book you.
There have been members who say their couples saw their ads, asked their planner about them, and the planner either reached out directly or recommended the couple go with them. I also have many members who say planners see their ads and they are recommended more because of it.
This is why I also teach how to form great vendor connections.
No, and there's MANY reasons why:
1. Not every ad strategy works for every brand, client type, or business owner. One-size-fits-all ad strategies are the reason why ad agencies shut down constantly. It just doesn't work.
2. Ad agencies are designed to stay on your payroll, and they do that by promising you inquiries, not bookings (because why would you keep paying them if you're fully booked?) This usually means running giveaways and discounts. I actually want you to be fully booked so I promise you bookings, not inquiries.
3. Ads are automated. For my personal wedding business I've had the same ad running for 9 months and I log into my ads manager for an hour once per month. Agencies will charge you $2k/mo to do the same amount of work.
First, determine if it's really out of your budget, or if your brain is just trying to keep you safe. You might feel like this could potentially not work for you. This is a normal feeling, and many members who've felt this way joined and went to $10k-$20k months in just a few weeks. Talk to us about it on our call!
Second, determine where your budget is coming from. Do you have money to run ads at all? If not, this isn't for you and we should wait until you do. If you do have a budget for ads but can't do a full pay, you can join for as low as $200/m with Affirm, or we can talk about other options on our call. It is a ZERO pressure sales call.
Third, consider the alternatives. How much money are you losing right now trying things on your own? Do you want to buy a cheap course with no help or ones with "coaching calls" that have 200 people on them? Or spend $2k/mo for an agency that won't get you results?
