100-ish Word Thought: Where’s the Fire?

Urgency is Not a Strategy

You do not need to burn your business down just to get booked.

Every time a slow season hits or a competitor posts a “fully booked” status, you sprint to rebrand, update your website copy, post a social media video or 12, start an email newsletter list, write a blog post, and refresh your packages. All. At. Once.

Then you crash. Then you burn. Then you ghost. Then you panic. Then the cycle repeats.

Urgency is great for emergencies. But for marketing your business? It’s unreliable. It leads to overwhelm and inconsistent, inefficient results. It’s not how marketing works. And it’s definitely not how the wedding booking cycle works.

Steady. Sustainable. Strategic. That’s what builds momentum.

Successful wedding businesses don’t wait for the impending doom of an empty calendar. They promote while they’re already booked, knowing that what they do now won’t have an impact for months from now. Leads show up over time. Because they’ve been nurtured.

So stop waiting for the fire. When you see the flames of gaps in your schedule, it’s already too late.
