Jody-Ann Rowe, Founder & CEO
I was exactly where you are now, so i get it. When I started out I planned events for friends and family making no money. I was passionate about planning events and organizing parties, but I didn't know how to turn my passion into profit or anything about running a business. I thought it would be too expensive to operate a business, that I lacked the skills to be a business owner and that I might actually not be successful! Then I realised something that you might not know yet: There's never a perfect time to start your event planning business.
So I hustled.
I worked my butt off to climb the corporate ladder from a Receptionist to Event Coordinator. But I didn't stop there, I wanted to achieve a lifestyle that felt right, where I could take luxury vacations and have more control over my income. I became a midnight hustler.
I worked my full-time job in the day, then volunteered in the evenings and on weekends planning events for my local hospital and community organizations. I made a commitment to myself to never stop trying. A year later I was planning events for PAYING clients through my event planning company that I had started on the side, making enough income to support myself AND my family.
I now plan events for major universities, political figures and other corporate clients and teach event planning to new event-preneurs.
In addition to my professional experience and on the job learning over the years, I also possess a degree in Economics, a post-graduate certificate in Event Management and a Masters degree in Education.
I decided to package everything I've learned over the past 10 years on how to get started as an Event Planner into a signature program and Event U: The Ultimate Guide to Successful Event Planning was born. I created it to provide YOU with a shortcut to the steps that will get you the best results.
EVENT U:
