    What to do with your cluttered camera roll

    If your phone's camera roll looks anything like mine, it's just thousands of pictures of balloons, mixed in with screenshots of inspiration, mixed in with photos of my family… and no strategy or organizational method to the madness.    So in this episode, I'm talking with Dionne, a professional photo manager. She owns Captured Memories Photo Solutions and we are both 17hats ambassadors.    She shares some really good insights about photo storage, including: backing up versus syncing your photos (and which option to actually choose) strategies for getting rid of all of the photo clutter why taking screenshots of your own photos compounds the problem   By the end of the episode you'll know what to do to put a system in place so that your camera roll can actually help you and your business, while keeping all those photos of your kids and pets cleanly separated.

    Marketing methods: a panel discussion

    What's actually working for balloon business marketing, and what's a waste of money? In this panel episode, I'm joined by Renisha of Chic Balloons and Alex of Blown Away Decor for a candid conversation about finding clients, spending wisely and what they'd tell someone just starting out. You'll hear our discussion about each of these marketing methods: Word mouth and local Facebook groups Chamber of Commerce Paid advertising Vendor events and bridal expos Van wraps Printed goods Websites and social media We also talk about how to get your first clients when you have no portfolio and why making what you want to sell is the fastest way to build that portfolio.

  5. Secrets to longevity in the balloon industry

    Secrets to longevity in the balloon industry

    In this episode I'm joined by Jacqui, who has been in business for 33 years… so I think it's self-explanatory why I wanted to have her on the show. But you'll also hear about the very interesting work she did before balloons! We are talking about how to build and sustain a business that long, how to keep a passion for balloons, the secret to continuing to make money year after year after year and what's so special about our industry.  Something that I also find really interesting about Jacqui is that she launched her business with a business partner who has since retired and now Jacqui is running the business solo with no intention to retire anytime soon. She also tells us how she had hand surgery and didn't have to turn down any work in the process of recovering! There is so much insight from her experiences in this conversation… enjoy! And thank you to this month's presenting sponsor, Grow My Balloon Biz.   In the UGlu Hotline, hear a tip about keeping your helium number balloons in the correct order for delivery, so they never look like a number they shouldn't.   Unlock three free bonus episodes!    RESOURCES MENTIONED: Sales Sets Grow My Balloon Biz  Havin' A Party Wholesale (save 5% on orders $200+ with code PODCAST) buildwiththeguild.com UGlu by Pro Tapes (save 5% on orders $200+ at Havin' A Party with code PODCAST)  DM @thebrightballoon on Instagram to ask a question or leave advice for the UGlu Hotline! 2026 Bright Balloon Planner  - - - - On the Bright Side Apple | Patreon Join the Bright Balloon email list  The Bright Balloon on YouTube
