Who are you ghosting?

Have you ever stopped to think about the people you're ghosting in your inbox? Why do we let certain conversations slip while juggling our daily priorities? In this episode, I dive into the notion that we all ghost someone, not out of disinterest, but because other things take precedence. Could there be a parallel in how your potential clients are ghosting you? Let's explore the reasons behind professional ghosting and how to stay top of mind.

Listen to this new 5-minute episode for fresh insights on managing your follow-ups and understanding the true dynamics behind being ghosted.

Episode Summary:

In this episode of the Wedding Business Solutions podcast, I delve into the concept of ghosting, not just from a client perspective but from our own as well. I've come to the realization that all of us are ghosting someone, whether intentionally or unintentionally, due to prioritizing other tasks and life's demands. I discuss how effective follow-ups can help you reposition yourself at the top of someone's inbox, increasing your chances of getting a response. I emphasize that ghosting doesn't necessarily mean disinterest and encourage you to reconsider your own communication habits. This episode aims to provide you with valuable insights to enhance your client interactions and follow-up strategies.
