About this listen
You know that vague WeddingWire or Knot message that just says, “What does a wedding for 100 guests cost?” It’s one of the most common - and most frustrating - types of inquiries venues get.
In this episode of The Venue Helpline, we’re unpacking how to reply without oversharing, underpricing, or getting ghosted. Learn a simple 3-step framework to turn low-effort directory messages into real conversations that lead to tours and bookings.
What You’ll Learn:
- Why directory leads aren’t low-quality - they’re just low-context.
- How to use the Acknowledge, Anchor, Invite framework to spark replies.
- How to automate your response templates while keeping your voice human.
- What to track to see which versions of your reply actually get responses.
