Why Your Next Workshop Will Fail (And How to Fix It) with Jake Wysocki

Learn how to create world-class workshops that your clients love and you love to deliver with Jake Wysocki, a former Fortune 200 design thinking expert turned workshop designer. Jake shares his powerful 10-50-99 framework for building and launching group coaching programs, retreats, and workshops without wasting time on content nobody wants. Discover why you should never build your entire program before selling it, how to use the "hopes and fears" exercise to unlock what your clients really need, and why getting people to DO something beats teaching them every time. Whether you're launching your first group program or refining an existing workshop, Jake's design thinking approach will help you create transformational experiences that scale your coaching business while maintaining that human connection your clients crave.
