The Hosting Guild

Every retreat has a fixed number of seats, a fixed date, and somebody who has to fill them. That's the job we talk about here.

The Hosting Guild is a weekly show for retreat hosts, group-trip organizers and venue owners — the people running the room, not the ones sitting in it. Each week the three of us take apart the parts nobody teaches: pricing a retreat so it actually profits, filling seats, and what to do four weeks out when you're half full.

Anna VanAgtmael has hosted retreats around the world since 2018. Stacy Earl is a growth marketer who has run 100+ person events since 2005. Robert Earl has spent twenty-five years getting businesses found online.

One of us gets you discovered. One of us gets you booked. One of us delivers the week.

No income guarantees, no "add $50k to your next retreat." Our mission is simpler and harder: empty seats to waitlists.

New episodes weekly. The community, the library and Anna's course are at thehostingguild.com
