But are you actually converting them — or are you leaving money on the table every single week?\nIn this episode of the Venue Masterclass Series, Dana sits down with Daniela Justus and Whitney Hodges, co-founders of LeadLock, a lead management software built specifically for wedding venues and wedding professionals. Together, they pull back the curtain on what's actually happening between the moment a lead comes in and the moment someone books — and why that gap is costing venue owners more than they realize.\nThey dig into why automation doesn't have to feel cold, how to stop writing off leads too early based on budget, what it actually takes to build a system your sales team can run without you, and why every investment you make — even the ones that don't go as planned — is just data pointing you in the right direction.\nIf you're an owner operator wearing all the hats, running high inquiry volume, or just ready to stop managing leads out of a spreadsheet — this one's for you.\nThank you to our amazing sponsors!\n\nAisle Planner\nWedding ProBrite BizLead LockReleventfulEvent Guard\nVenueX AI\n\nInterested in learning more about The Venue Masterclass?\n\nJoin us February 21-24 in Tampa, Florida.
