Are you too busy to be successful?

I’ve been working on a new presentation based upon a concern I hear very often. As I travel around the country speaking with, and for, people like you, I often hear the same lament: “I’m busy, but I’m not making enough money”. There are many possible reasons for that: • …

Are you Self-Employed, Unemployed or just Under-Employed?

It’s my Anniversary! No, not my wedding anniversary (although that’s coming up in May). April 1st is one year since I untied The Knot, as some friends of mine so eloquently put it. While it’s been a somewhat seamless process, as I’ve still been out speaking, training and writing, it’s …

And the winner is…

I’m just back from another great Catersource conference, this being my first representing my own company, not a media company. My time was jam packed with presentations, consultations and my trade show booth. I saw some familiar faces and made some new friends. At my booth I had all 3 …

What do brides really think about your websites and Facebook pages? Alan’s Top 10

I had the privilege last week of presenting at the Wedding Biz conference in Atlanta. Donna Jakulski and Linda Surles did a great job arranging and producing not only the day of vendor education, but also a fantastic bridal show the day before. The highlight of Wedding Biz, for me, …

Can your business survive without social media?

I attend a lot of conferences around the country, both local and national and one of the hottest topics is always social media. Too often I see attendees coming out of these sessions with that deer-in-headlights look. They’ve just heard someone pontificate about all of the things they need to …

I’m very proud to announce the launch of my new video site AlanBerg.tv where you can watch free and paid videos. I want to thank everyone who was involved in the filming and post-production of the videos. Why not YouTube? Some of you may be asking “Why not use YouTube …

Why you’re not being as unique as you might think

Every photographer and videographer I meet likes to tell me that they’re unique. It’s their shooting or editing style. It’s their personality. It’s the quality of their work. But what if you had to tell a potential client why you’re different and you can’t say it’s your eye, your personality …

How was your year? Painful or Plentiful?

As we approach the end of 2011, how do you feel? Are you exhilarated over a great year? Or do you feel beat up and can’t wait for the year to end? I meet a lot of wedding pros every year as I travel around the country for presentations and …

What’s more important when choosing a wedding venue, the food or the photo ops?

I had the good fortune to be consulting the other day with a DJ/Photo/Video company. I sat in on a couple of actual sales appointments with two brides and their mom’s. What was very interesting, and coincidental, is that the second bride considered using the venue that the first bride …

What’s the value of an idea?

Take a look around you. Everything you see is the product of an idea that someone had at one time. Your desk, your chair, your computer, your shoes, each of those started as someone’s idea. If you’re like me you have lots of ideas on pieces of notepaper, or on …
