It’s time to create a team! This is such a great milestone as your business grows, but it’s also one of the most nerve-racking leaps you’ll take.

Emily McMahon has been there, and on this week’s episode of Wedding Industry Insider, she’s sharing the lessons she learned and how she found success as the owner of a team-based wedding planning company.

Emily owns Soirée, a wedding planning company that serves Iowa City and beyond. Today, Soirée is a thriving business with a team of talented planners and assistants. But there were some growing pains getting there.

In this great interview, Emily talks about her early days rejecting events she couldn’t do herself and how she eventually learned how to hire, train, and maintain wonderful employees.
