Episode 12 - Connecting the Dots Between Client Expectations and Tech with Randi Bushell
Using the right tech tools is critical to meeting client expectations and delivering a seamless experience. Find out how you can use technology to elevate your wedding business.
In this episode of Mind Your Wedding Business, I’m chatting with Randi, the founder and CEO of Merri. With a background in e-commerce, Randi’s journey into the wedding industry was sparked by planning her own wedding and discovering a major gap between visualizing a concept and making it a reality. Now, she’s developed a cutting-edge platform that allows wedding pros and their clients to connect and collaborate on event design like never before.
We dive into how Merri addresses this gap by offering a 3D planning tool that simplifies visual design, reduces misunderstandings, and enhances communication between clients and vendors. Randi also shares her insights into the power of integrating tech into the wedding business—without losing the human touch. We discuss why tech adoption has been slow in the events industry, how to overcome common barriers, and practical ways to streamline your workflows.
