Venues We’ve Helped

"The Venue Help Desk is full of quick solutions and quick wins (and who doesn’t love THAT!). They are committed to helping our venue succeed. We had a vision that did not include all the pieces and parts of running a business – the Venue Help Desk has helped get everything in place."

Kellie Bryson
Owner of Legacy Farms in Lebanon, TN
"Ian's guidance has been a game-changer for me. With his insights, I've learned the art of connecting with couples before, during, and after property tours. The impact has been incredible – not only have bookings increased, but I've also developed profound connections with couples throughout their entire wedding planning journey. Ian's strategies have elevated my approach, making every interaction a meaningful and memorable one."

Ginger Lundell
VP of Marketing at 7F Lodge & Events in College Station, TX
“Words cannot express how amazing it has been to work with Shannon from the Venue Help Desk. We are beyond grateful for her never-ending willingness to help us find solutions to our everyday challenges as venue owners. Shannon's guidance and coaching on venue operations and marketing have helped us rapidly grow our brand within the Central Florida area. The Venue Help Desk is an invaluable asset to Casani Estates."

Carmen Humphrey
Owner of Casani Estates in Groveland, FL
"Working with Ian has been an amazing experience I didn't know I needed and I look forward to working with him every other week. He has truly helped me grow as a business owner in such a short time. I feel like we are old friends and not just mentor/mentee. He has been a godsend at helping me on my venue/restaurant journey and I appreciate him more than words can express."
