Business Development for Drumming & Rhythm Facilitators
Are you a rhythm event or drum circle facilitator (DCF) who wants expand your business to serve more people, and get paid more for your work?
- Do you have ideas for higher-level offerings for businesses and organizations, but aren’t sure how to get them out there?
- Do you already work in education, health & wellness, social services, or community settings, and think about offering rhythm programs for team building, meeting groups, and the like?
- Are you looking for where to start to approach the daunting world of “corporate” clients?
And daunting it can be. If you sense that “the rules are different” for drumming in organizational settings, you’re right. That’s because
It’s not about drumming. It’s about business results.
This fact changes lots of things. It’s important to understand and plan for the different dynamics, expectations, and pitfalls present in organizational settings, so you don’t either lose the gig, or have your session “not work” quite as well as you’d hoped.
Let me help you find your direction. “The Business of Drumming” course will help you
- assess your best approach to the business world
- design programs that fill client needs, and
- deliver effective programs that make an impact.
In this business development course, you will learn
- The key factors you must remember to successfully serve organizational clients
- The wide variety in the business ecosystem (kinds of groups, purposes, formats, third parties) — and which feel most natural for you to serve
- From initial client contact to the end of the gig, how to design and deliver a program that meets the client’s business objectives, and gives participants a great time
- How to describe and market your offerings through clear language that your target clients want to hear
