41. The importance of strong relationships in the wedding industry with Harpist, Harriet Flather

A very warm welcome back to The Wedding Business podcast! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas break and are feeling ready for a prosperous 2022.  Before we get into today's episode I have a very exciting invitation for you because The Wedding Business Bootcamp is back! This is a free 5-day Bootcamp for wedding business owners where you can learn my 4 step strategy that every wedding business should know so that you can stop the panic, stop the overwhelm and stop the sleepless nights. We kick things off on 24th Jan 2022, so if you’re looking for a way to focus, have some fun (remember that?!) and flourish - come and join us and walk away with a plan to make 2022 work for you. You can save your space for The Wedding Business Bootcamp now!  My first guest of the new year is Harpist supremo and a much-valued member of The Wedding Business Club, Harriet Flather.  Having joined The Wedding Business Club in Jan 2020 I’ve been lucky enough to witness some of the friendships Harriet has struck up within the club, and in today’s episode, we discuss the importance of making connections and how key building relationships can be in this industry.  Harriet has some brilliant do’s and don'ts when it comes to connecting with suppliers and couples, how she finds common ground with new people, and how those extra touches can go a long way to building trust with new clients.  We’ll also take a look at how Harriet learnt to play the harp and built a career as a professional musician, how she has launched a second business and what she absolutely loves about working in the wedding industry.  We really could have chatted all day, so I hope you enjoy this one and can take away some top tips for building strong working relationships. You can connect with Harriet on Instagram @harrietflathermusician and find all her services at www.harrietflather.co.uk and @i_do_social/  See you again next week!
