We dive into the concept of creating a post-wedding campaign to increase the lifetime value of your clients. This strategy is really effective and can help you generate more revenue from clients who already trust you.

The Importance of Post-Wedding Email Campaigns

Typically in the wedding industry, clients are one-time use. Once they do their wedding is over, their lifetime value also over. This is because they normally don’t continue to book you for different services. But, what if you could continue to sell to them even after their wedding? Using post-wedding email campaigns are going to nudge clients into buying more products you offer which will keep them as lifetime clients.

Types of Post-Wedding Email Campaigns

– Review and Referral Campaign: This campaign solicits reviews and testimonials from the couple or their families after the wedding. Those testimonials can then be leveraged in future marketing efforts.

– Upsell Campaign: If the couple enjoyed your services, it would be easier to sell them additional or premium services. For example, this could be offering wedding photographs but upselling to personalized photo books or post-wedding photo shoots.

– Cross-Sell Campaign: Go past the wedding sphere, you can offer complementary services. If you served as their planner, try offering corporate event planning, birthday parties and showers.

– Flash Sale or Seasonal Sale Campaign: To boost sales, you might want to offer discounts or special rates specific to products or services. These could apply to new or existing products or services you offer.

– Anniversary Campaigns: This strategy reminds couples that, even though their wedding took place a year (or more) ago, you can still provide them services. Always stay top of mind.

Common Mistakes in Post-Wedding Email Campaigns

Avoid making these mistakes in your email campaigns:

– Avoid Generic Templates: Customize your communication to each client to make it personal and unique.
