  • EP 11: Creating Content That Builds Business with Tayler Cusick Hollman
    Dec 1 2021

    Tayler is the owner of TAYLRD Media + Designs, a Co-Founder of Sourced Co., Contributing Editor at WeddingPro, and the former Marketing Director at Aisle Planner. As an industry marketing consultant and copywriter, she’s spent over six years working with wedding pros to help them develop the skills, strategies, and stuff they need to market their businesses and build their brands. When Tayler’s not talking shop, you can find her talking politics with anyone who will listen, whipping up something from scratch in her kitchen (ask her for her short ribs recipe), or out on her mountain bike (don't worry, she has all the pads).
