What is the number one problem this episode solves?Most wedding pros wait for January to sort their marketing, pricing and visibility, but the truth is that the couples who book in January made their decisions months earlier.

In part two of our copywriting mini-series, Katie and Roxy are pulling back the curtain on the 5-P Copy Framework – the structure that turns dull, practical copy into words that connect. Last week was about the science (remember the bleach brand and the credit card company?). This week is about the framework itself: what it is, why it matters, and how it could transform the way couples respond to your marketing.You’ll learn why couples don’t just want hours and prices, but promises and proof.

You’ll learn why practical details matter but emotions seal the deal, and why connected couples are 52% more valuable than satisfied ones. Plus, they reveal how this ties into The Profit Shift – a new framework they’ll be breaking down at Wedcon this November.
