Behind The Veil - Technology ... Curse or A Blessing? Nora Shiels - Owner of RockPaperCoin.com Jan 25, 2022

Show notes

During Covid - it felt like technology wa a lifesaver when everything else was going to the trash pile! Technology helped us communicate with clients in ways that never seemed possible.
This week's guest is Nora Shiels - the creator and owner of Rock Paper Coin - a must have for event pros when scheduling payments, contracts, and communication with other vendors on a collaborative event. Nora had zero experience when it came to technology but knew there was a need and had a solution! But is technology always a good thing? Does it ever get in the way of the one one one relationship, which is the foundation of the trust built between client and event pro?
Nora Sheils is a co-founder of Rock Paper Coin, a software platform that brings together wedding planners, couples, and vendors into one system for managing and paying contracts and invoices. Nora is also the founder of Bridal Bliss, a planning firm based in the Pacific Northwest. It was in the weeds of the planning business that she—along with her sister-in-law Elizabeth—recognized a gap in the market for a comprehensive and collaborative platform that brought together a planner, their client, and the rest of the event team. In 2018, they launched Rock Paper Coin as the solution they were always seeking. Although neither carried a background in tech, they pulled together the necessary resources because they knew their digital solution would make a difference in the industry as Gen Z emerges and we work with increasingly tech-dependent clients.

You have your marriage license, but now what? This week, we welcome back Alan Berg, husband, father, son, friend, speaker, author, salesman, marketer, musician, handyman, consultant, and all-around nice guy.

There is a marriage, a ceremony, and a celebration, but are they the same? Here we examine what it means to focus on you and your significant other, preparing for your life together and the formality of the ceremony.

The celebration focuses on your family and guests with the help of a wedding planner, location, and your vendors, to put on this magical show to celebrate and commemorate the special occasion. It gives you a glimpse of the details behind the scenes, why it costs more for a wedding, and why hiring friends isn’t always the bargain.

Behind The Veil - Interview w/ Julie Novack - CEO and CoFounder of PartySlate.com Dec 21, 2021

Show notes

This Tuesday on Behind The Veil, we will have a conversational approach to scaling an event publication before and during pandemic times. We welcome Julie Novack CEO and Co-Founder of PartySlate to learn more about how she got started, how the wedding and event editorial landscape has changed over the years, and through the current state of COVID, website best practices, and strategies for your brand.
Julie is the CEO and Co-Founder of PARTYSLATE, a photo-rich website where leading event professionals share their work and build their brand. With over 20 years of digital marketing experience with some of the biggest brands in the world, Julie is excited to bring this expertise to the events industry. After she planned 40+ large-scale galas and corporate events. Julie became increasingly frustrated while planning a high-profile cancer research gala, spending hours online looking for ideas and venues, only to find wedding blogs, sterile vendor listing sites, and Pinterest dead-ends. Julie was inspired to set out to create a Houzz-like website to address the $143 billion events industry. Since its founding in 2015, over 15,000 of the country’s top event professionals and venues have uploaded over 1 million event photos to their beautiful profile pages.

Behind The Veil - Dirty Little Secret - Sanitation and Events Nov 09, 2021

Show notes

No one really wants to talk about the dirty side of throwing an event, but if you don't, it could quickly take a wrong turn!
Many times, it's the first question that planners get from the mother of the bride - "What do the restrooms look like?" ...And for most, thinking about sanitation is not on the top of our list - but it should be!
How we handle trash and restroom needs, can make or break an event.
Since 2020, most of us have had to deal with how to make sure we take care of person to person transmission, but there is so much more to ensuring that your guests feel clean and that doing their "business" doesn't include feeling like the guest needs to hold it until they get home.
This weeks guest, Dr. Nancy Powers, is a holistic physician turned public health safety advisor! Providing portable sanitation for any situation, as project coordinator for Komfort Zone Services, Dr. Nancy advises event directors and project managers on how to safely and strategically host gatherings in these (semi-post Covid) “unprecedented times”
Because you can’t have a successful celebration without successful sanitation! Dr. Nancy Powers has been helping people feel better naturally since 1992.
