A one day workshop for up to twelve people starts at $7,500. What moves that number, what the fee covers, and what you are not being charged for.
For up to twelve people, on site, built around what your team actually negotiates. That figure covers the design work, the day and what you keep afterwards. The four things below are what move it.
A day is built for a group rather than sold per seat, so the price moves in steps rather than per head. Up to twelve is the standard shape. Beyond about sixteen the room stops working the way it should and we would rather run two days than crowd one.
Simulations are written around what your team actually negotiates, which takes time before the day. A team working one familiar category needs less build than a group spanning four business units with nothing in common.
Most engagements are the day itself. Some add a session a few weeks later against live deals, once people have tried it for real and discovered what they could not make work.
Chicago and the surrounding Midwest carry no travel cost. Further out, travel is billed at cost and shown as a separate line rather than folded into the fee.
Scoping conversations, the scenarios, the materials and the brief for your side. There is no discovery phase billed separately before the work starts.
A full day on site with the person who designed it. Nobody else is sent.
You keep the scenarios, the materials and the method, written in your language rather than ours, so the team can run a version of it again without us.
A call a few weeks later to hear what held and what did not. It is part of the engagement rather than the start of a retainer.
Training is often priced in ways that keep costing money after the room empties. None of the following applies here.
Nothing is priced per head and nothing expires. Adding two people to the room on the morning does not change the invoice.
They are part of the design work. There is no separate line for printing.
We do not certify anyone in a method, and there is nothing to renew next year.
There is no ongoing arrangement sold on the way out. If the team can run it again without us, the engagement worked.
Tell us what is happening. We’ll tell you whether we can help, and say so plainly if we cannot.
Most of what we do starts with one sentence about something that is not working. You do not need a brief.
