Grand Mixer Retreat Planning: Pricing, Safety, and Experience With Blaney Teal, Sheri Rosenthal, and Lori McDowell | 042

so today we're going to talk about hosting your very first profitable retreat because it really is closer than you think right you need to help create the right experience you gotta have the right numbers right how you gonna have a little or a lot and you have to find the right people you need to attract the right people so you don't need a massive audience you don't need a luxury resort And you don't need years of experience.

So I'd like you to put in the chat a one if you have hosted a retreat before or a zero if you've never hosted a retreat before.

That's just for fun and it will help me see how we're doing with everybody.

So we got a lot of zeros, zeros, zeros, zeros.

All right, you guys are all in the right place.

I just gotta tell you right now with Sherry being here today and Lori and myself, I think you're gonna find that you came here today and you're going to leave with something very important.

So let's talk about hosting a retreat in the general terms, right? So this is actually a group that did a yoga retreat here last year.

And so, you know, she had this dream of having this life-changing retreat in paradise.

And Just like everybody else and probably like you, you've got this like all of a sudden you get butterflies or heart palpitations or you start freaking out because you understand that there's a lot that goes into doing a retreat.

And that's why you're on something like today, right? Because there's overwhelm.

There's, oh my God, am I going to be able to make this happen? Logistics, money, blah, blah, blah.

It goes on and it goes on.

And so today I'm going to help you with one piece of this.

There's a lot of pieces, but I'm going to help you with one piece.

And that is the fact that retreats are not just events, but they can be a revenue stream and they should be.

a revenue stream, right? So we're going to talk about this from the pricing side of a little bit today.

I don't have a lot of time, so it's just going to be a little high level introduction to thinking about how you should be pricing your genius, right? So number one, though, most people, when they host A retreat, it's because they know that we all need deeper connection.

I love Zoom.

Zoom is amazing.

But there's something different with actually giving hugs in person, right? There's absolutely something different with having margaritas at the pool with your new best friend.

So you get this deeper connection from retreats.

And you also can have a bigger impact faster.

So a lot of times coaches have coaching programs and they're six months, 12 months, whatever, ongoing.

But the nice thing is you can have a huge impact in a very short period of time with a retreat.

So think about that for a moment, right? And then of course, there is real profit in retreats.
