VIP Retreat Planning Day

Plan, price and prepare your retreat in one focused day.

You already run a successful business.

You have an audience, a brand and the ability to sell.

What you don’t have is the time to figure out retreats.

This is where we move it forward.

A focused day to build your retreat.

This is a private, high-level working day where we sit side by side and plan your retreat in real time.

We make the key decisions.
We refine the details.
We structure it properly.

You leave with clarity, direction and real progress.

Your retreat moves from idea into something clear, structured and ready to act on.

This is where your retreat moves from idea into something clear, structured and ready to act on.

What you walk away with.

For many clients, this means being ready to move into launch shortly after.

✓ A clear retreat concept and structure

✓ Pricing that supports profitability

✓ A realistic timeline and next steps

✓ Key decisions made, not just discussed

✓ Confidence to move forward


WHO IS THIS FOR

Established business owners, studios and venues ready to add retreats.

This is designed for established business owners, studios, organisations and venues who want to add retreats into their business

You:

  • already have an audience or community
  • understand marketing and sales
  • move quickly when something is clear
  • value expert input and efficient execution

You’re not starting from scratch.

You want your retreat planned properly and ready to move.

This is the work we do every day with retreat hosts, studios and venues.

How the day works.

A focused, productive working day. We sit down and work through your retreat from concept through to a clear, actionable plan. Bring a co-host, team member or assistant if you like.

What we focus on.

✓ Concept & positioning

✓ Pricing & profitability
✓ Inclusions & structure
✓ Venue & logistics decisions
✓ Marketing approach
✓ Your next 90 days

Why this matters

Retreats can become a strong revenue stream.

They can also take time, cost money and create unnecessary complexity if not structured well.

This day is designed to:

✓ save you time
✓ avoid costly mistakes
✓ fast-track your decisions
✓ create a retreat that is both impactful and commercially sound

Instead of spending months figuring this out, we make meaningful progress in a day.

Working with Emma was exactly what I needed to bring my retreat to life

We refined my pricing, clarified my structure and worked through the key decisions together, so I could move forward with confidence. I knew I had the right support in the room and didn’t have to figure anything out alone.

Since then, I’ve delivered multiple retreats and have more already in the pipeline.

Emma’s support has been extraordinary. 

She helped bring structure and a professional foundation to my retreats, from pricing and planning through to the finer details behind the scenes.

The strategic refinements we made together gave me real clarity and confidence, not just in delivering the experience, but in building something sustainable and profitable as part of my business.

Yes. This is often where experienced hosts refine their pricing, improve structure and strengthen profitability.

We also work with hosts who have run retreats before and found the experience more demanding than expected. Together, we refine how you plan and deliver your retreats so they feel structured, supported and sustainable, while still creating a deeply valuable experience for your clients.

This is not a training.

We work on your retreat in real time, making decisions, refining details and creating a clear path forward based on your business.

If you don’t, Emma’s team can support with light implementation on the day where appropriate, helping you keep momentum and move things forward.
