What will your Workshop look like?
What's the typical schedule?
Before the Workshop:
MEETING
We will meet with you to talk about your workshop, answer any questions you have.
RECORDING
We will send you your microphone and phone stand.
You will then record your workshop, and upload your video clips to us to edit for you.
PROMOTING
Once the workshop has been filmed and edited, and you are happy with it, we will begin promoting your workshop up to one month before.
We will promote it to our Email List, Web Traffic, and Social Media Accounts.
We will also run paid advertising to make sure that we fill up the seats.
Our aim is to get as many people signed up as possible - up to 1,000.
TESTING
We will meet up 1 week before your workshop to do a run-through and test your video and audio - just to make sure it's alright on the night.
We will send you a link to join - it's really easy, there is no software to install.
During the workshop:
Obviously, this will be different for each individual workshop, but here is the general schedule.
WORKSHOP INTRODUCTION
For the first 30 minutes we have open tables (like mini zoom rooms) where attendees can talk with each other and get to know each other. This is a great time to also introduce yourself and answer any questions they have.
WORKSHOP
We will then show your workshop to the attendees.
During your workshop, the attendees can ask you questions via the text chat.
You can either answer these during your workshop in the chatbox, or we will save up the best questions to ask at the end of your workshop.
Q&A SESSION
At the end of your workshop, we will have a live Q&A session.
People can ask you questions in the chat, or if you want, we can allow the guests to get on camera and ask you questions face-to-face. Whichever you prefer.
WRAP UP
After your workshop, we can:
- Send you a copy of the replay. (You can do what you like with it)
- Send the attendees a digital replay of the Session.
Pricing your Workshop
We can handle payments and charge anything for your online workshop.
- We can host free Workshops.
- We can host paid workshops.
- We can host Donation based workshops. (Free to enter, plus optional donation)
We can charge your normal rate for a workshop.
But because we can have up to 1,000 people join your workshop live we usually sell workshops for between $39 - $59 USD.
Charging less means...
- it's more accessible for people
- which means that more people will join,
- so you could earn more per workshop,
- and get more email contacts for you to send marketing to later on.
