If you want to win clients, you need to make a killer first impression, starting with your client proposals. This week, my guest Terrica and I are talking all about ‘em. Terrica is the chief planner and designer at Cocktails and Details, and she’s been creating exquisite weddings and events in the Golden Isles area for the past fifteen years. We agree: you’ve gotta put your best foot forward before you earn even one penny. Terrica is here to tell us how!

In addition to leading a rockstar team at her planning and design firm, she also owns The White Lounge—a contemporary wedding planning studio for couples and wedding professionals.
A wavemaker nominated for 2018’s Honeybook’s 20 on the Rise and a current Knot Pro Educator, she launched her signature wedding industry education system, “Here Comes the Brand” in Winter 2018. Terrica is an ardent educator of those in the wedding industry, also hosting the “She Doesn’t Even Go Here” podcast. An avid lover of cake and champagne, you’ll find her entertaining family and friends at her home with her four “fabutots” or binging on RuPaul’s Drag Race and Game of Thrones.

This Week’s Sponsor: Renee’s Proposal Bundle
Stand out from the crowd with proposals that convert. If you’re using Honeybook or Aisle Planner for your proposals, you look the same as every other wedding planner out there, right? I want to help you create a proposal that will help sell your unique value to your clients with our proposal bundle for Canva.
I love using Aisle Planner for my contracts, and before that, I loved using Honeybook. But for my proposals? I make sure I stand out by using gorgeous Canva templates. They’re easy to customize for your business and for each specific client. I’ve been using them successfully for years, and now I’m sharing them with you.
