The pandemic has had an affect on all of us in one way or another. But for todays guest it literally put a halt on one business, and changed the immediate direction of the other.

In this episode I'm chatting to Laura Hopkins, founder of Elegant Designs Ltd. & The Wedding Emporium. Laura is a client and a great friend, and when I shared screenshot of her analytics after we worked on her Instagram strategy in January, I just HAD to get her on the podcast. The amount of DMs I received was crazy! You all wanted to know HOW she did it.

Now, don't be fooled, Laura did a lot of work, which is just one of the tings we discuss during this episode.

We also chat about:

✨ How Laura has started not one, but two wedding businesses

✨ How the global pandemic has affected her business and how she's dealt with that

✨ What it took to grow her Instagram account from 1500 to 15k followers in 3 months - and WHY that was important to her

✨ What she's working on for the wedding industry to support supplier and soonlyweds

✨ What other challenges she's faced along the way

If you find this episode useful, please do share and tag myself and Laura and we'll be sure to share them!
