While many entrepreneurs see the value of offering Proposal Planning services right away, some don’t think that Proposal Planning is for them. And of course, Proposal Planning is NOT for everyone.
However, if you are not adding Proposal Planning services because you think there is not enough money to be made in the industry, you don’t think you can handle more clients, or you don’t want to look like a jack of all trades, I challenge you to read this blog with an open mind.
Below, I will examine each of these myths in detail and debunk each of them.
Myth #1: There is not enough money to be made by Proposal Planning
This is outright false! I earn a multiple six figure salary each year just by planning marriage proposals. The truth is, the Proposal Planning industry is growing and there is no better time to stake your claim in it.
Think of it this way, for almost every person that plans a wedding, they had a proposal first. And not only can you INCREASE your revenue by adding Proposal Planning, you can increase your wedding leads by earning the trust of the client BEFORE they get engaged. That means you can earn even more revenue once they book you for your wedding planning services!
Myth #2: I will look like a jack of all trades
I have heard this concern before and I get the logic behind it. Wedding Planners worry if they say they are a Proposal Planner too, that their wedding audience may get turned off. But the truth is, if you go into it with a plan and make sure there is an appropriate balance, it will NOT turn off your audience. In fact, I think it makes you stand out.
Imagine for a moment that you are a bride and you have looked at 10 Wedding Planner Instagram accounts. They are all starting to look like a sea of veils and altars. And then “POP” you see a glam proposal and it makes you stop scrolling. I think it can actually be a benefit if done correctly. In my Proposal Planning Formula™ course, I teach you exactly how to do that!
Myth #3: I won’t be able to handle more clients
Is this not the ultimate problem to have? If you don’t put much energy into Proposal Planning, you aren’t going to have so much of a workload you can’t keep up with it. But if you make it a consistent part of your strategy, you will get consistent revenue and you can hire a junior planner or even an intern to help with the proposals. This is not a bad problem to have, you just have to have a strategy in place before it happens.
