Commission Structure Transparent & Fair

How our partnership works and how you benefit from every successful venue booking

Simple, Transparent Partnerships

Our commission structure is designed to be fair for everyone — you, the venues, and us. No hidden fees, no complicated terms, just clear partnerships that benefit all parties.

Win-Win Approach

Every partnership is structured so that venues, retreat leaders, and our service all benefit fairly from successful bookings.

Full Transparency

No hidden costs or surprise fees. All commission rates are agreed upfront and clearly documented before any bookings are made.

Protected Rates

Your commission is secured at the time of venue selection, protecting you from any future rate changes or negotiations.

How It Works

1

You Submit Your Retreat Requirements

Complete our venue inquiry form with your retreat details, group size, dates, and budget. This helps us understand exactly what you need.

2

We Negotiate Venue Partnerships

We approach venues on your behalf and negotiate favorable rates that include a commission structure. This commission comes from the venue's marketing budget, not your costs.

3

You Choose Your Perfect Venue

From our curated selection, you choose the venue that best fits your vision. All commission terms are clearly outlined before you make your decision.

4

Commission is Processed

Once your retreat is confirmed and deposit is paid, the agreed commission is processed directly by the venue to our service, typically within 30 days.

Why Our Commission Model Works

No Cost to You

Our commission comes directly from the venue's marketing budget, not from your retreat costs.

Better Rates

Our established relationships often result in better rates than booking directly.

Ongoing Support

Commission-based partnerships ensure we're invested in your retreat's success from start to finish.

Quality Assurance

We only partner with venues that meet our high standards for luxury and service.

Risk Mitigation

Our involvement helps protect against booking issues, cancellations, and disputes.

Time Savings

No need to research, contact, and negotiate with multiple venues yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I pay any fees for your venue sourcing service?

No, our service is completely free for retreat leaders. We earn our commission directly from the venues we partner with, which comes from their marketing and sales budgets.

Are the rates higher because of your commission?

Actually, no. Our established relationships often allow us to secure better rates than what venues offer for direct bookings. The commission is built into their standard pricing structure.

When is the commission paid?

Commission is typically processed within 30 days of your retreat deposit being confirmed with the venue. This ensures the booking is secure before any payments are made.

What if I need to cancel my retreat?

Cancellation policies follow the venue's standard terms. If a cancellation occurs before commission is paid, no commission is processed. We help mediate any disputes that may arise.

Can I book directly with the venue after you introduce us?

For your initial retreat, we ask that bookings go through our established partnership to honor our agreements. For future retreats, venues may offer direct booking options at their discretion.
