Hosts Danny Iny and Abe Crystal introduce Blowing Up, a new podcast in the Mirasee FM podcast network. In this bonus episode, hosts Linda Claire Puig and Ari Iny talk with Donna Kozik about how she incorporates courses with weekend “get it done” events.

Donna Kozik is on a mission to get you published. Donna created the original Write a Book in a Weekend virtual event and now leads five additional “in-a-weekend” style programs. 

Hosts Linda Claire Puig and Ari Iny explore with Donna the dynamic business growth possibilities that derive from in-a-weekend events, as well as the practical structure of the weekends. The three of them brainstorm a variety of niches that could employ this strategy. 

In this episode, we discuss:

• How to host events that help attendees achieve a desirable goal in one weekend
• Why guiding people through a project from start to finish actually creates a new, urgent need…and how to position a higher-priced offer to be the no-brainer next step for your attendees
• How to design your weekend program to be “just right”—enough content to fulfill a promise your prospects can’t resist, but not so much that they become overwhelmed
• And much more!

“We’re all creative, right? That’s why we’re here.”
