When Your Business Model Stops Working (And What to Do)
The event industry is shifting! If your business looks exactly the same as it did two years ago, that might not be stability. It might be a warning sign.
In this solo episode, Jese breaks down what she's seeing across the event industry right now: changing client behavior, unpredictable booking cycles, tighter budgets, and a market that's rewarding different things than it used to. She walks through three strategic ways to pivot your business when you see the signs of change — without blowing everything up or starting from scratch.
In this episode, you'll hear:
The specific shifts happening in how event clients buy, book, and spend
Why pivoting your audience might be the most powerful (and most overlooked) move you can make
How changing your positioning — not your service — can transform your inquiry rate overnight
When it might be time to ask the hard question: is this even the right business model for where I'm going?
The difference between a panic move and a strategic pivot
This one is for every event pro who's been feeling the shift but hasn't known what to do about it.
