dear
I will tell you how I have made millions of dollars in event planning.
In fact, by the time you are reading this, I’ve probably just closed another deal worth millions.
Not only do I make millions, I am one of Africa’s leading event planners and the founder of Zapphaire Events… yes, THE Zapphaire Events!
With over 20 years in the industry, I have planned more than 1,500 high-profile events across Africa and internationally, from intimate private dinners and corporate galas to large-scale concerts, state banquets, and grand royal weddings.
Not only do my events feature in global media, but along the way, I’ve been ranked among Africa’s Top 3 Wedding Planners by Women Connect, featured on CNN Inside Africa, named in the BBC 100 Global Women list, featured in Forbes Woman Africa, and recognized as one of the Top 100 Destination Wedding Planners and Designers globally.
This is not magic, and I am not bragging, it is a proven system that works for me every time.
You think event planning is just about the bright colours, the lights, the décor, the aso-ebi, decorating venues, and hearing “well done” after a beautiful wedding...
So, you work from morning till night, doing all the work and at the end, you end up with no profit, only to find yourself chasing clients for your balance.
Here’s the truth:
If you don’t understand systems and structures, business goals, managing cash flow, handling client expectations, and building strong vendor relationships, things will remain the same or even get worse.
Do you know how to charge right?
Do you have the right systems?
Do you know how to market yourself professionally?
Now, let me ask you:
Do you really want to build a multi-million-dollar event planning business?
The gap between you and me isn’t luck, it’s knowing the right steps to grow from where you are to where you want to be. When I started out 24 years ago, I was just like you today.
I remember the struggle of inconsistent bookings, low budgets, and the uncertainty of where my next client would come from.
And that’s why I created The Business of Event Management Program, my step-by-step blueprint to help you transform from “just an event planner” into a confident, structured, and multi-million dollar event business owner.
You’ll learn the exact systems, strategies, and insights I used to build one of Africa’s most respected event brands. This is NOT one of those boring, recycled online classes.
I’m breaking it down in simple, practical ways, real-life scenarios, my personal experiences, and even stories of my biggest mistakes (so you don’t have to learn the hard way).
