090: Hosting Your Own Workshop or Retreat with Blair Thielemier

090: Hosting Your Own Workshop or Retreat with Blair Thielemier

Speaking at someone else’s event is great, but hosting your own workshop or retreat can be even better.

You get to control the content and you’re center stage as the host and presenter.

But, there’s also a lot that goes into planning a successful workshop or retreat that’s a full day or even two days.

My guest, Blair Green Thielemier, recently hosted her first one-day retreat (combination workshop and mastermind) at a hotel venue in Nashville.

Blair shares with us:

  • Why she decided to have an in-person event when the rest of her (very successful) business has been entirely online
  • How far in advance she started planning
  • The marketing and sales strategies she used
  • Why she selected that particular city and hotel
  • How she planned the content
  • Getting sponsors
  • Lessons learned
  • What she’s planning for her next retreat

About My Guest: Blair Green Thielemier, PharmD is an independent consultant pharmacist living in Arkansas with her husband and two children. Her latest project is hosting and producing pharmacy’s first virtual conference, the Elevate Pharmacy Virtual Summit in partnership with the NCPA Innovation Center.
