Why Creating A Personal Brand Matters in 2024 w/ Morgan Kennedy

Why Creating A Personal Brand Matters in 2024 w/ Morgan Kennedy of Balance Creative Morgan Kennedy is a Marketing and Sales Strategist and the owner of Balance Creative Agency. Over the past 9 years, Morgan was a destination wedding and engagement photographer based out of Northern California. When Morgan realized her favorite part of owning her small business - creating marketing materials, crafting a personal brand, writing powerful copy, and developing her sales strategy - was what most people struggled with the most, she knew she could create a service to help. Morgan launched Balance Creative Agency, a boutique marketing agency created for wedding small business owners who want to craft standout brands and take their sales to the next level. All of the services provided by Balance are custom to each business owner and their goals. Balance Creative Agency has three main hubs.

The Best Way To Attract More Clients w/ Shauna Cooney

EPISODE 17 The Best Way To Attract More Clients w/ Shauna Cooney Shauna enjoys interior design, architecture, and the thrill of exploring new cities. Immersed in fresh perspectives provided through experiencing new food, art, and culture, she seamlessly weaves these elements into her photography. With a background in education and leadership, including two master's degrees, Shauna brings a distinguished perspective to her craft. Her experience as an assistant principal and educator imbues her work with a depth of understanding and professionalism that sets her apart in the world of wedding photography. Shauna is committed to preserving legacies and upholding the highest standards of excellence, ensuring that each client receives nothing less than the most extraordinary experience. MANIFESTATION THOUGHTS I firmly believe in the energy we project and the power of our minds, and that we must believe in something ourselves before expecting it to happen. If our minds don't see something as possible, we won't take the necessary actions or have the confidence for things to fall into place. I think action needs to be accompanied by mindset and manifestation shifts. But I strongly believe that the most impactful thing one can do right now is to adjust their mindset and start manifesting the life they desire. While action is crucial, there's a certain magic in truly believing that something will happen for us and that the universe will deliver it. It was challenging for me to reach this point, but now that I'm here, I'm amazed by what has come into our lives this year (and we're only three months in). WE CHAT ABOUT Authenticity and how it is so important for a strong brand How she went from being a teacher to photographing her 1st wedding Connecting traits of past clients and how to attract new ‘ideal’ clients How she manifested 10 new weddings in just 3 months Using the ‘as if’ method of manifesting And how she is currently manifesting to be named top wedding photographer in the world - I believe in you!

Rebrand to Level Up w/ Caitlin Fulton Kuchemba of Fulton Events

Caitlin Fulton Kuchemba is the fearless namesake behind Fulton Events. While she also answers to her first name Caitlin, Fulton is her middle name, a beloved family name, and a nickname that inevitably stuck. With over a decade of experience producing hundreds of events, Fulton has developed a nationally recognized and signature sought-after wedding style. Caitlin and her team specialize in weddings that feel effortlessly chic, with a seamless planning process for their couples. Caitlin has been featured in the New York Times, Brides, and more and was named Best of Philly 2022 and a "One To Watch" by The Knot in 2023. She is also an educator and industry leader and is currently the President of the WIPA Philadelphia Chapter. Fulton lives in the Pocono Mountains with her husband, Adam, and their Wire-Haired Pointing Griffon, Susque, named after the Susquehanna River they both grew up along. In the off-season, you can find her skiing (and après skiing) at some of her favorite ski resorts out west. MANIFESTATION THOUGHTS FROM CAITLIN I definitely believe in manifestation and putting energy into what you want to achieve, that also has to come with a lot of hard work, but I do think that when you think positively and you picture and talk about your goals often, you are putting intentions out into the universe. You also have to take action to make change so I am a firm believer in just dipping your toe it and taking it one step at a time. If you sit back and do nothing, then nothing will happen, but you have to be willing to take that first step and take some risks along the way. WE CHAT ABOUT Launching as Clover Events in 2015 to rebranding to Fulton Events in 2023 How rebranding your company is a true investment and what those investments look like Growing her team from part-time to full-time planners How her rebrand came at the right time And, how you can personally work with Caitlin to grow your brand TUNE IN NOW!

Brian has now written hundreds of vows, speeches, ceremonies, and other scripts, and been featured in Bridal Guide, Brides, The Knot, and many more respected wedding publications.
