In this episode, Jonathan shares key insights from his experience at Wedding MBA 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Reflecting as both an attendee and exhibitor, he highlights three essential takeaways:
Tailoring Advice to Your Business
Industry advice isn’t one-size-fits-all. Jonathan stresses the importance of applying strategies in a way that aligns with your venue’s unique goals, market, and clientele.
Networking with Purpose
Active engagement at events is invaluable. By setting clear goals, participating fully, and following up with new contacts, you can turn networking into lasting relationships and business opportunities.
Adapting to Industry Evolution
With the wedding industry constantly changing, staying informed is critical. Jonathan emphasizes the value of joining organizations like the Wedding and Event Venue Association (WEVA), which provide tailored support, education, and resources for venue owners and operators.
