ADVERTISING
INFORMATION

I really want to thank you all at Bride Online. I was so completely and utterley daunted by the whole process of website design when we started. But your professional advice and calm voice on the other end of the phone, in tandem with Christine's extraordinary design talent have produced a wonderful web site and have left me wondering why I used to think it was all going to be too hard! Many, many thanks."

"I'm blown away by the website you created, and by the amount of enquiries turned into bookings through Bride Online!
I'm towards the bottom of the second page in Melbourne photography and wasn't so sure about the response I'd get - yet I've had seven actual bookings in as little as four days since putting your website up! So I've been able to make back more than what I spend on the website in the first week! I'm LOVING Bride Online!"

"Now that we have been advertising with Bride Online for a couple of months, I just wanted to email you in appreciation and let you know how we are going. Almost instantly from the first day we advertised with you, we had over 6 times the daily number of visits to our website and this has remained constant since them. This has made a very dramatic difference to our business and our sales have increased significantly. Part of your sales pitch to us (when I mentioned winter is quiet for us) was that we should consider advertising straight away so that winter isn't quiet, this was not empty rhetoric as our turn over in July 07 alone was greater than any month in the previous financial year by a long shot. Needless to say we are thrilled & appreciative with what you and Bride Online have done for our business.

The professional manner in which you pitched to us, the return calls you made when you said you would, your persistence without being a pain in the butt has actually taught us more about how we should be approaching our clients and I use you as an example of how we should be selling. We are very happy with the designer profile and when we received Bride Online's welcome/marketing package (the design of which gave us many ideas in itself) we knew we could take the marketing suggestions in it seriously. Given the skills Bride Online has proved to have in marketing and web design I intend to call soon to discuss having our entire website redesigned."

Thanks again,

"The number of leads from Bride Online has been incredible, but it's the quality of these that has made me really happy - and meant that I've been able to make 63 weddings already this year! All of my enquiries are from Bride Online as a result of the advertising on site, but also the fabulous website created. Not only does the website mean my traffic turns into to easy sales - but everyone comments on how much they love it!"

"I am extremely happy with the website that Bride Online created for me and the quality of traffic from advertising it on the Bride Online website. I get huge amounts of traffic and many enquiries every month. I market my business in numerous ways - but Bride Online is by far my largest source of enquiries - delivering over 50% of my overall marketing leads! I just had 6 confirmed bookings for August from Bride Online, and spring looks set to be just as busy! Thanks and regards to the whole team."

"I just wanted to thank Bride Online for bring me such good feedback and business. Most of my clients comes from your website! (I have 2 other internet advertising sites, but the result is nothing compared to Bride Online.) I really want to say how happy I am with Bride Online! You and your team are so professional and kind.

Thanks for everything!"

"I regret to advise I will not be not taking any new bookings for Let's Jam for next year and beyond.

But I would like to inform you that among all the advertising, both online and in printed format, that Bride Online was definitely the most effective and most successful for us. Thank you very much for allowing us to be involved in such a fantastic and well organised bridal directory such as Bride Online. You might also be happy to know that I've been recommending the benefits advertising on your site to other acts who would like to break into the bridal industry.

Thank you again for everything, and I wish you all the success that you have brought to us.”

Thank you for the reminder on renewal of our advertising... however we have just recently sold our business.
But I want you to know how impressed we are with Bride Online, and that we will give your details to the new owner.

You should know that out of all the advertising we have used, Bride Online has been the most beneficial of all.
Roughly 80% of the jobs we booked were through your website and we could not have kept the business running as long as we did without it.

Thank you for creating such a fantastic web site not just for the brides and grooms but for the whole wedding industry.

Within half an hour of our website link going live with BrideOnline, we received our first telephone enquiry. We do get great feedback on our website, but the majority of traffic to it comes via BrideOnline.

Initially, we were uncertain whether we would be able to attract the high end of the market through an online advertiser. However, not only are we receiving a lot of direct online enquiries, we are achieving quality, high paying orders as a result of our listing with BrideOnline.

Life is definitely about working smarter, not harder; BrideOnline has certainly helped us along this ‘desirable path'.

I highly recommend Bride Online as an advertising wedding directory. The Webdesigner designed my website which I have had several positive remarks from Sydney brides. Since my website went up I have had 50 wedding bookings in the first 6 months of my site going live. I had over 15 enquiries per day from week one.

I do not get as much feedback and as many bookings through any other source of marketing, promotion or advertising. I ask every bride where did she find Bridal Beauty she replies "Bride Online" every time, WOW! This goes for most brides in my 10 years of being a Hair & Make-up Stylist. Your team are also professional efficient and most helpful. SO THANK YOU BRIDE ONLINE!

Kind Regards,

"Bride Online has been great. The website you produced has worked terrifically - and we've had heaps more enquiries than we would have expected.
At the moment we're getting 3 or 4 enquiries per day! So it's all going wonderfully...

"Thanks Sarah. This is why we will keep advertising with Bride Online... 90% of our enquiries are from you, and the others show they are referred from our website address which is a direct link from your site anyway... So it appears that potentially 100% of our enquiries are via Bride Online...!!!"

I closed my beauty business in QLD due to a marriage break up & moved to NSW.
Not knowing where to begin I rang around few places to advertise ... and started with Bride Online.
I've only been here 3 months but have already done some weddings and have more booked for this year!
This is an excellent start to the new year & my new life in new city. Thank you Bride Online and Christine for creating such a beautiful website...
I will spread the word on how good Bride Online is to all my friends who have businesses in the wedding industry!"

"Being in a prominent position on Bride Online has driven a great volume of traffic through to my website, and valuable leads to my business. In fact, I made a few bookings this week - a couple from Canada today, and last night another couple - both of whom found me on Bride Online!"

Appearing in the top ten listings in "Photography" has really helped to increase my results. The high ranking keeps a steady stream of enquiries coming my way, with around 20 visits to my website per day - which is over 600 visitors per month! I have never had this sort of success with other forms of advertising - and it's become a highly important part of my strategy.

"Hi Sarah, I just wanted to say a big thankyou.

I am a new advertiser on Bride Online (dressmaker's section) and I have already had four enquiries in two days with two of them following up and making an appointment. And the Search Engine optimization hasn't even kicked in yet. The ad will have paid for itself already in two days!

I also wanted to say thankyou for the professional and helpful way in which you dealt with my request.
Many thanks again for your help. Very much appreciated!"

Kind regards, Carol

Advertising with Bride Online is proving rather successful! In the first month I have had more enquiries via your website than I did for the whole year with one of your major competitors.

And I have had a lot of people comment on how good the website you designed looks - many are disappointed to find I am already booked after they have seen the site itself. So a big thank-you!

"Hi Bride Online,
We are currently over loaded with work and need a break.
You have been fantastic in supplying us with the majority of our clients and promoting our work.
And we highly recommend bride on line to all friends in the business!

But unfortunately with a baby on the way, we have no time for us and need a break to plan expanding the business.
We will be advertising with you again in 2007!

So just for now - please take down our beautiful directory page ... And thank you again for your fabulous service."

"In the short time since Fleetwood Chauffeured Limousines has taken up an Internet site page on your Bride Online we have found it to be exceptionally successful. We have had many enquires to date that we have turned into confirmed bookings.

At the same time the professional and friendly service that you have provided has been refreshingly up front and honest. Also the follow up service and your eye for detail has been second to none.

The concept of Brides and grooms being able to show their wedding photos on the Internet free is a great service.

Speaking to many brides to be and brides that have just been married has been very positive and many are in the process of contacting you to organise their photos for Bride Online.

Looking forward to a long association with Bride Online."
