It's time for some in-depth

I'm just now getting to listen to the Venue Business Boot Camp! It is very personable and helpful! I feel like I could pick up the phone and talk to you or Meredith if I had specific questions. So that's an amazing quality for Here Comes The Guide that I don't get from other providers. I feel like you all really care about us as a venue—and that means a lot to me!

I have been working my way through your modules, and I want to say thanks so much! I started booking weddings at our venue about a year or so after Here Comes the Guide started, so I was skeptical I could learn something new. Boy, was I wrong! I am in the process of re-doing our website, so your modules were so well timed. Hoping I will be a good example of all your expertise.

I have devoured the Wedding Venue Boot Camp episodes. I have all the sheets printed out and I have started changing verbiage on everything. This is my biggest thank you area. I spend a lot of time listening to podcasts, listening to audible books, or watching sales videos. However, in just 5 episodes I have gotten more actionable items than I have in the last year of all of those things COMBINED. I cannot describe how blown away I am to have this information and have even found that it has lit the wedding fire inside me again.

Let us help whip your venue into the best shape of its life.

Several tools to help you execute on the ideas we discuss, including downloadable PDFs, worksheets, custom spreadsheets, swipe files, video tutorials, and more.

An in-depth podcast episode for each module, hosted by the CEO of Here Comes The Guide, Meredith Monday Schwartz

A TWO-PART COURSE CONTAINING A TOTAL OF 15 VENUE-SPECIFIC BUSINESS EDUCATION MODULES

Our Venue Business Boot Camp includes:

I’m Meredith Monday Schwartz, CEO of Here Comes The Guide—a website that lists thousands of wedding venues across the U.S. 

I started at Here Comes The Guide in 1997 (we didn't even have a website back then—there may also have been dinosaurs running around!) and was a venue specialist for 10 years before taking over as CEO. 

The Venue Business Boot Camp was created in 2020 to help our wedding venue clients face the pandemic head on. We provided 10 practical and actionable modules that dove deep into the issues facing venues and the event industry at large.

The VBBC was so well received that we re-launched in 2023 with another 5 modules. 

Our team is eager to help you make sure your venue is in the best shape of its life—and ready to tackle whatever the future holds.
