I talk about this all the time, a retreat is not a vacation someone could plan on their own.
There are specific things that make a retreat a retreat and one of those things is making sure people feel so cared for that they can relax enough to have a transformation.
What’s one of the most important things you can do to ensure that?
🙌🏼MAKE THE RETREAT ALL-INCLUSIVE🙌🏼 This eliminates SO much stress.
I suggest not making people have to figure out how to get from the airport to the venue and back again. If you’re in a place where your clients don’t speak the language (or need to rent a car and aren’t familiar with driving on that side of the road), this can be a turnoff. Including your transportation (for the airport AND included excursions) in the cost will definitely enhance the appeal of your retreat.
I also highly suggest including the food to eliminate people having to figure out where to eat, wait in line, waiting for food, paying for each meal individually, figuring out if they have to tip or not, etc
🤷♀️ So what does all-inclusive mean? Lodging, meals, shuttles, included excursions (tips if you want to) are all in once price. Once you make the price all-inclusive, people know exactly what to budget for AND it eliminates them deciphering how much you’re profiting.
A retreat is meant to be a sanctuary for people to relax, reflect and transform and making it all-inclusive will go a long way in making that happen.
So how can you do this while pricing your retreat in a way that’s appealing to buyers?
