Couples inquire with several vendors at once and often book whoever replies first. See what slow replies cost you in a year.
Couples send the same inquiry to several photographers, venues or planners in one evening. The vendors who reply first, with a clear answer about the date and price, get the call. Weekends are the hardest: you are working a wedding while new couples are waiting.

Missed or late inquiries a month × 12 × the share that are a good fit × the share who would have booked × your average booking. An estimate from your numbers.
