About Carolyn<\/h1>\n

\u200bI’m so glad you’re here!<\/h2>\n

My story is a little wild. Funny enough, my last 9-5 job was in West Africa. When I came back to the US with no clue what to do next, I enrolled in farm school \u201cfor fun,\u201d and I fell in love with flowers. But after farming for only a couple of years, I had a terrible injury that ended my farming career for good. I was back to square one, and broke as hell.  <\/p>\n

Faced with losing thousands in farm investments, I started getting serious about making weddings my bread and butter. The wedding industry is a $57.9 billion dollar<\/strong> industry in the US, and I needed to make money. <\/p>\n

When I started Bloom Poet<\/a>, there were floral design classes, but no one was teaching wedding sales. I wasn\u2019t booking enough weddings. I was getting ghosted all the time, and it felt like I always had a carrot dangling in front of my face. I knew I could do better. It took me years of trial and error, expensive 1:1 mentorship, and developing different systems before I was able to book every wedding I wanted.<\/strong>  <\/p>\n

In two years, I went from 1-2 weddings and no clue what I was doing, to booking out a full calendar of perfect clients, raising my minimum to $12,000, and making a real salary – all during COVID. I developed my Gentle Sales System so that I never get ghosted, and now I have a 100% booking rate in my business. <\/strong>It\u2019s been so successful, I often turn work away. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, I have found joy in my wedding business again, because everything has become so much easier. I\u2019m not spending a ton of wasted time on proposals, only to get ghosted. I\u2019m not spending hours on nerve-wracking sales calls. And yet, my wedding clients are all amazing, wonderful, \u201cideal\u201d clients. <\/p>\n

I also get to help wedding pros like you build your own Gentle Sales System, so you can stop the ghosting and book more weddings. And I love that, because wedding pros are not only the hardest workers, but the most fun people to be around! And I truly believe that when our small businesses succeed, we make the world a better place. <\/p>\n

I\u2019m here to help you succeed, because I know you can do this, too. <\/h3>\n

There is nothing wrong with you if you are getting ghosted, or ending up with a pile of quotes and no firm bookings. But I don\u2019t want you to spend years of frustration figuring it out on your own. You just need a little help with your sales so you can stop the ghosting and book more weddings. <\/p>\n
