Multi-City Program

Same lunch model in each city. Volume across markets can lower your per-lead cost. The format scales without retrenching the strategy.

Every stage uses the same per-lead model. No platform tiers, no feature gates, no lock-in — the only thing that changes is the room.

Pricing questions

Same brand, same per-lead model, same operator team. A lunch event is a private, in-person session for 15–25 decision-makers in a single city — $500 retainer. A live webinar is a curated online session for 40–150 senior decision-makers across multiple cities — $250 retainer. Most sponsors start with a webinar to validate audience demand in a new vertical, then graduate to a city-by-city lunch program once the per-lead economics are proven.

No. The retainer is credited against your first invoice. For example, on a lunch event, if your total comes to $1,000 in leads, the $500 retainer is subtracted first and you owe the remaining $500. Same model for webinars at $250. It is a deposit, not an extra cost.

For lunch events, most per-lead prices fall between $35 and $100 depending on market, audience seniority, and outreach complexity. For webinars, the typical range is $25–$50. We set the exact price during the fit call — before anything launches — so there are no surprises.

The retainer covers the strategic work that makes the event actually deliver: topic selection and positioning, agenda design, and the call-to-action architecture that turns attendees into warm pipeline. It also covers the operational side — audience research, individual outreach to decision-makers, RSVP management, private venue, and a fully catered lunch. The entire $500 is then credited against your first leads.

The same strategic work — topic, agenda, and CTA architecture — plus audience research, individual outreach, RSVP management, and webinar production (registration page, calendar invites, day-of moderation, follow-up). No venue or catering, which is why the retainer is half. The full $250 is credited against your first leads.

It depends on the market, audience seniority, format, and complexity of outreach. We set the price before anything launches so there are no surprises. You know exactly what each lead will cost before you commit.

For a lunch event: every person who attends. If they are at the table, they are your lead. For a webinar: every live attendee who joins the session — registrants who never show up do not count. You receive full contact data after the event. No complicated attribution or scoring.

No. You start with a single event in whichever format makes sense. If the leads are good, you can turn it into a recurring series or graduate from webinar to lunch. If not, you are not locked into anything.

No. The retainer covers the strategy work plus setup, outreach, and production (venue and lunch for in-person; webinar platform for online). The per-lead price covers the leads. There are no platform fees, service charges, or surprise invoices.

Same model, same structure. Each new city gets its own event with its own retainer and per-lead pricing. Volume across cities can improve your per-lead cost. Some sponsors run a webinar first to test demand across multiple cities, then drop physical lunches into the top performers.
