ABOUT HEATHER HOESCH OLSEN
You’re probably wondering—who is this?
Hi! I’m Heather, expert wedding planner, wedding industry educator, mentor, business coach, a podcast host and someone obsessed with helping wedding planners succeed.
When I was 19 years old, I started wedding coordinating at a catering company. Each weekend I had the opportunity to execute their plans and help bring their vision to life. I was immediately hooked!
I coach planners all the time who struggle to make coordination services fun, efficient and profitable. But with the right plan, you can and I can’t wait to show you how.
Management services are a key part of many businesses cash flow, growth and reputation building. I still offer these services because I love to help couples, it’s easy and fun. Whether you are wanting to improve the services you offer, send a team member to grow your business or really refine this process to increase your value and your prices- this workshop is for you.
“Heather uses her position as a wedding industry expert to lift up new and aspiring wedding planners, bring them into this amazing community she has created, and make them feel truly welcome. You'll leave with knowledge to run your business and your weddings with confidence, and with the Planner Life Community applauding your every step.”
