//I'M SPILLING THE BEANS//
There's something that really bugs me about having a small wedding business, it's this! People just think they are buying what you sell!
If you're a huge co. selling 1000s of items, then the costs of running a business are spread out, but what if you're a really small business?
Taking my little biz into consideration, people think they are buying newspapers. But what they are really buying is that plus:
🧡Technology/hardware to create + run things, like laptops, phones, printers
🧡Software, eg automation tools, an email account + website [+internet and phone bills] and graphic design software
🧡Petrol and hotels for travelling to shoots/fairs/events
🧡Marketing, including magazine advertising, directories, fairs and flyers
🧡Training and upleveling skills
🧡Insurance
This list isn't exhaustive, but these costs have to be paid for. So next time you think a wedding supplier is expensive, think about all the things they have to pay for before saying they're just asking for more because it's a wedding, that's the biggest load of BS there is!
Tell me what you think in the comments!
