Relationship building for your meditation business

The ACMM Wild Peace Retreat in the Blue Mountains, (Gundungurra and Dharug land) NSW was the setting for our most recent Business Lounge session. After 2 ½ days of meditation and movement, nurturing and nature, we dove headlong into the business of meditation. The session covered transitioning and building relationships for your meditation business. It was a true collaboration from our ACMM community at retreat, sharing ideas and creating a space of support and growth for everyone.

Many incredible ideas have been birthed, including:

• The opportunity for Business Lounge members to facilitate specific business skills sessions for the Business Lounge community eg. Website Development, Canva, Facebook, Insta, Sound Recording,Strategic Planning, Business Regulations – a true sharing and collaboration for the benefit of all members. Stay tuned – we have plans to roll this out in our November live sessions.
• Knowledge sharing about the government New Enterprise Incentive Scheme (NEIS Scheme), now called New Business Assistance with NEIS, which is available and supports you to develop your business whilst providing you a payment. https://www.dewr.gov.au/new-business-assistance-neis
• Encouraging Business Lounge members to support one another’s business by providing reviews of their experience learning from each other. We’ll also roll this one out very soon!
• Information on free national business coaching programs and networks was shared. This is being worked through, to come out in an email to all Business Lounge members in the coming weeks.
• The value of collaboration, a how to start developing peer and client relationships was discussed with many ideas shared.

The workshop was a wonderful reflection of the depth of skill and wisdom within the group and the value in reaching out, in participation and in developing relationships to nourish you and build your business.

Thank you to ACMM Coaches Lauren Howe and Jen Hill for facilitating this high energy, inspiring session with me and thank you to the ACMM retreat community for your generosity, wisdom and warmth. So much gold will flow from this session to benefit not only our community as meditation teachers but hundred’s if not thousands of people out in the community.

I look forward to sharing the session audio recording in the Business Lounge Video Library soon.

All the best,

Tim James, Business Lounge Facilitator
