“Brian Lawrence shared his insights with an Association of Bridal Consultants webinar: “12 Steps to Marketing Success”. It was excellent. After listening to him I contacted him to see if he could make some improvements to my website that would attract more customers. Brian gave me big global tips as well as simple tips to make things more believable and thus raise my profile to potential clients. It was great. Well worth my time and money. The best part is that Brian knows the wedding industry so he can help busy wedding professionals.”
