Comments on: The Dangerous State Of Being In Wedding Marketing Denial http://weddingmarketing.net/2009/12/08/sad-state-denial/ Wedding and bridal marketing, selling to the bride Thu, 29 Jul 2010 09:07:28 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=1116 By: Courtney Hampton http://weddingmarketing.net/2009/12/08/sad-state-denial/comment-page-1/#comment-811 Courtney Hampton Sun, 13 Dec 2009 18:38:53 +0000 http://weddingmarketing.net/?p=4955#comment-811 As a recent bride myself and friend of many brides, I can tell you that another reason not to play auto music is because most of us are looking at wedding stuff while we are at work! If music starts playing we could get busted by the boss. So ,as soon as the music starts, we are closing the webpage and are annoyed at the company that almost got us busted. Not a good first impression.

Just as it is with playing music at a bridal show. You only have a few seconds to impress a bride, therefore no matter what song is playing there is always a risk that the bride may dislike it and turn away. Larry your right, it is a mistake.

One angle that you haven't touched on is, how is the music selection itself possibly counterproductive? How does the marketer know if the music he chooses might turn away a DJ Shopper because they just don't like it? Folks have varied perceptions, especially when it comes to music. The intention to enhance the visitor's experience of your site by playing something they might not favor could be a mistake. No?

We're just about to close it down and shift everything to a new site powered by Wordpress. Making changes is as easy as writing a blog post. If you are interested, our test site is here: http://62.128.141.49/ We've used the eProduct Wordpress theme and will soon install the Shopp e-commerce suite. Total cost for the new website, including SSL certificate (for e-commerce security) about $190. I think a lot of your readers would like to improve their on-line presence but don't know where to start. Take care, Andy. Hi Andy,

Lo and behold, the contact form I was using is not compatible. So, one of my tasks, over the next few days, is to choose a new one. And then, you and I will both have our wish. Thanks for noticing, Andy Yes, how ironic :)

Where can I see an example of this on your site? Andy. “Ask for marketing feedback on your contact form (i.e. How did you find this site/company?).”
