Revenue Streams

Professionals in Fee-Generating Positions

Your organization sets seminar facilitation fees for clients between $3,600 and $4,500 per seminar and keeps 100% of facilitation fees. Facilitating a half-day Code of Conduct session is typically billed at $3,200 and resolving conflict between pairs generates roughly $2,800 and $3000 additional income. Your organization keeps 100% of facilitation fees. Your only obligation to Thera Rising is to purchase materials for seminar attendees–a cost that is passed on to your clients.

Example: A client is struggling with a dysfunctional team or department. You recommend a one-day seminar to dismantle factions, a half-day Code of Conduct session to repair group norms, and facilitation to resolve conflict between two key stakeholders. The trainer's total time investment is approximately 3 days and net revenue is more than $10,000.

Facilitators that work exclusively within their organization and do not charge facilitation fees meet their royalty requirements by purchasing materials from Thera Rising–a cost that can often be met with your client’s resources.
