WORKSHOPS PLUS
PARTNERSHIP 

We offer two options at different levels of investment, so you can choose what best meets your needs:

• Standard: 4 workshop sessions/year plus all the included benefits for $15K/year, paid upfront (or $1500/month if paid monthly).

• Expanded: 8 workshop sessions/year plus 20 hours of consulting, along with all the other benefits included with Standard, for $25K/year, paid upfront (or $2500/month if paid monthly).

Feel free to schedule a call if you have any questions, or if it would help to discuss your options live.

Great question! It is indeed quite a “steal” at this price, but there’s no catch. We're able to make this such a cost-effective investment because of the unique way we combine workshops with an ongoing partnership. Getting to know you and your company more deeply over time lets us quickly and easily align our content with your culture and business needs without tons of time on analysis and prep.

We offer an Initial 90-Day Satisfaction Guarantee: If you're not seeing the impact you expect in the first 90 days, we'll refund your payment (less the standard price of any workshops that have already been delivered).

We do not offer refunds after the first 90 days, and we cannot refund the price of workshops that have already been delivered.

It means you can set up a Zoom chat with me (Nick) whenever you want to ask questions or discuss anything related to L&D. I'll be under an NDA as part of our partnership agreement, so you can share internal/confidential details as appropriate.

And yes, there are a few reasonable limits that we put in place to keep things manageable:

• Advisory calls are limited to 30 minutes, once per day.

• Calls must be scheduled at least 24 hours in advance (we can sometimes meet on shorter notice in urgent situations, depending on availability).

• Calls are subject to my calendar availability (including vacations and sick leave), though I will do my best to accommodate your timing needs.

• We ask that calls be limited to an average of once every 1-2 weeks, though this may be higher during busy periods and lower in slow times.

• Excessive use of advisory calls (ie., on track for more than 35-40 per year) may result in more stringent limits to ensure we can provide support to all of our client partners.

If you have questions or concerns about any of these limits, let's discuss! We're always working to improve the value and flexibility of our offerings.

Many vendors say they need to do a lot of legwork in advance to understand our company well enough to create a customized program – interviewing your execs, analyzing your data, and preparing a comprehensive report, all before getting started with the program. That costs both time and money.

It’s fine for some projects, especially larger transformative ones or ones with sensitive content. But for most leader and manager training, you don’t need all that. I’ll ask you for an initial braindump of info about your company and culture, and I’ll learn more about you as our partnership deepens throughout the year.

I’ll use those insights to tailor the content to you without needing a big time-consuming research process up front before we get started.

We’ll work with you to create a schedule and cadence that works for both of us. Typically we ask that workshops be scheduled at least 2 months in advance to ensure we have sufficient time for prep and tailoring. With your agreement, we can make tradeoffs to schedule workshops sooner than 2 months.

We will do our best to accommodate your preferred timing. However, there may be certain days or weeks we are not available to facilitate (including vacations and sick leave). We will work closely with you to ensure your needs are met.

That would be great! It depends on the specifics, but I can often travel to deliver workshops onsite. This will require payment of additional travel costs that are not included in the price of the Workshops PLUS Partnership.

We do not offer refunds for any unused workshops or consulting hours, except as part of our Initial 90-Day Satisfaction Guarantee.

We are only able to offer the Workshops PLUS Partnership at such a cost-effective rate because of the financial predictability it provides. Refunding unused workshops or consulting hours would make this untenable.

But don’t worry – we will do our very best to partner closely with you to ensure you get the full value of your partnership before the annual agreement ends.

We can bill you at the beginning of each quarter (or each month). However, the price will be higher. Receiving payment in advance provides financial predictability that is a key factor in our ability to offer such a cost-effective program.

Quarterly or monthly payments do not offer the same assurance, so our price is higher: $1500/month ($4500/quarter) for the Standard partnership, or $2500/month ($7500/quarter) for the Expanded partnership.

If you or your Finance department has concerns about our payment terms, we'll be happy to discuss the situation and work toward a mutually agreeable solution.
