10 Essential Items for Your Next Participant's Retreat or Group Coaching Kit

Looking for some quick tips on what to include in your next retreat or in-person group coaching kit for participants?

Here' s a quick list of 10 items I always include for each of my in-person programs:

1. Welcome Letter
2. Learning Guide/Manual to accompany the program (with ample space to write on/in)
3. Book (or e-book link to sustain the learning once back at home/the office
4. Notice of group follow up call or individual coaching session
5. Invitation/announcements of future programs
6. Resource List/Bibliography for further follow up
7. Business Card
8. Postcard (which participants can also use at the end of the program as a "letter to themselves about their greatest learning which you collect and mail out at a later date to remind them)
9. Personalized pen from your company
10. Gift Certificate for discount to future programs or services

Running a virtual program (one by phone)? Consider how these items can be modified and distributed to participants by email or snail mail prior to the programs. Remember, 60% of participants are visual learners, and in a virtual or phone based environment, it is still important for participants to have some immediate visual cues.

Warm wishes,
