Series 3, Episode 1 - Rebecca Matthews and Brendan Sleeman. Co-Founders of Wed Magazine: print media in the ‘Destination Wedding’ industry.
04/22/22 • 39 min
15 years into their journey, we find out how to achieve longevity in an industry that had been written off; how to stay afloat in times of global crisis; and how to separate work life and family life when you marry your co-founder!
Wed Magazine’s success is a lesson in understanding your market, your revenue streams and the community you serve. As Brendan describes it, you have to “ditch the ego” and truly listen to your stake holders, if you want to stay relevant.
