While I speak and consult to wedding and event businesses, I don't talk about weddings or events, I talk about business. So many people told me that the tips and ideas in that book apply to any business, so I finally took the hint and made this version for you. I hope that you find these ideas useful for your business as well. Any of my other books will also help you, regardless of what you sell or what your business does. You may just have to read between the lines on some of the examples. Thanks for considering this book and please check out the Wedding Business Solutions podcast. I talk about business and life (not weddings or events).

The Physio Practice Profit System
Physiotherapy in Australia has changed - forever.Once upon a time, physiotherapy was a profession rewarding those who worked hard enough and were committed enough to carefully tread the narrow path to becoming a physio.This meant working hard in high school to get an offer from a university that provided physiotherapy as an option. After that, there was a truckload of study in university to graduate.Next came working as someone's underpaid offsider as you helped pad the pockets of the physio principals you worked for.Once you had done your time in the trenches, it was a matter of taking out a lease, getting a loan from your friendly medical banking rep and then setting up your own shop.While there were some challenges as part of this process (recruiting competent staff, finding a suitable location, getting your practice set up), basically it was a licence to print money.Unless you were doing something pretty bad (according to AHPRA1 there were only 12 physios de-registered in the past 12 years - one a year), it was pretty much a case of put out your welcome mat and wait for the customers to roll in.Waiting times of three to four weeks for clients to see the local physio were not uncommon.But then the party ended.

Sports stars influence consumer choices
The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to explore how consumers in a social media group in North Texas describe the influence of their favourite sports celebrities on their interest in, evaluation of, and purchase of products the athlete has endorsed. Prior empirical research contributed to the topic of this study and is the anchor of the research. The defined problem space aligns with research conducted on the subject and the suggestions of their authors for future research. Celebrity endorsements are a commonly used strategy for marketing communication efforts. Through celebrity endorsements, a firm hopes to connect its product or service with consumers based on the credibility of the celebrity. A person is defined as a celebrity if they have a significant profile in the entertainment or sports industries and recognition by the general public based on their accomplishments (Friedman & Friedman, 1979; Nanda & Khandelwal, 2017)

Social media influencer marketing emerged in Web 2.0 as a new form of celebrity endorsement in which the Internet-famous create word-of-mouth marketing for brands and organizations on their personal social media pages, blurring the line between organic and sponsored content for their followers. This book explores social media influencer marketing through the lens of philosophy of communication with a praxis-centered approach. Kati E. Sudnick utilizes a multitude of theoretical touchstones--including Christopher Lasch's narcissistic culture, Marshall McLuhan's global village, Daniel Boorstin's human pseudo-event, Jacques Ellul's propaganda, and the interplay between charismatic leadership and parasocial relationships--in order to consider consequences surrounding Hannah Arendt's social condition, which appears in hyper-form within social media influencer marketing as a major integrated marketing communication tool. Sudnick applies these concepts to three major case studies surrounding Audible, BetterHelp, and Fyre Festival, drawing implications and conclusions for this integrated marketing communication tactic in an era entrenched within the banality of the social. Ultimately, the author argues for a more aware and conscientious public when it comes to engaging with influencers online. Scholars of communication, philosophy, and media studies will find this book of particular interest.
