Planning Your Perfect and Profitable Retreat: Upcoming Program Sneak Peak
In this podcast episode, I am excited about an upcoming retreat and decide to share valuable insights on how to plan and execute a successful retreat that not only elevates your tribe and brand but also generates income. I draw from their extensive experience of hosting, co-hosting, and facilitating numerous retreats across different locations.
I cover various essential topics, including retreat themes and styles, making a retreat meaningful and enjoyable, selecting the right location and dates, budget planning, creating a well-structured schedule, addressing dietary and accommodation preferences, dealing with unexpected issues, effective marketing strategies, post-retreat engagement, insurance and contract considerations, and bonus content on retreat horror stories, partnering decisions, self-care, tech tips, souvenirs and swag, and bringing in workshops or guest speakers.
