Marketing Support & Toolkit
Support, guidance, and practical tools to help retreat leaders organize, communicate, & prepare for their retreat with confidence.
Support for Retreat Leaders
Hosting a retreat is an exciting opportunity, but many retreat leaders quickly realize that there are many details to think through and decisions to make throughout the process. From creating a landing page that draws in participants to communicating the retreat experience clearly and responding to participant questions, it can sometimes feel overwhelming to navigate everything on your own. We are here to support you throughout the process, from the early stages of preparing to host your retreat to confidently leading an unforgettable experience.
Retreat leaders may choose to receive personal guidance through Marketing Support and access practical templates and resources through the Retreat Toolkit. For retreat leaders who choose Marketing Support, you have someone in your corner to provide feedback, answer questions, and offer guidance throughout the process. The Retreat Toolkit includes helpful templates and guides designed to walk retreat leaders through the different stages of hosting a retreat.
The Retreat Toolkit is included for retreat leaders who choose Marketing Support and may also be purchased separately for those who simply want access to the resources and templates.

Content Capture
Retreat leaders who host their retreat in Egypt may also choose to add content capture during the retreat. This optional add-on allows retreat leaders to receive curated photo and video content that can later be used for marketing, promotion, and future retreat launches.
Content capture includes:
• 20 edited images highlighting key moments and experiences throughout the retreat
• 3 edited vertical videos designed for social media (such as Instagram Reels)
• Candid photos and video moments captured naturally during the retreat experience
Having content captured during the retreat allows leaders to share authentic moments from the experience and build a visual library that can support future retreat promotion.
This add-on focuses on candid content captured organically during the retreat experience and is not intended to replace professional photography or videography services. Individual photo shoots or staged content sessions are not included, although a small number of group photos and occasional individual shots may be captured naturally during the retreat.
Content capture is limited to moments documented during the retreat experience and delivered as a curated selection of images and videos.
This option is ideal for retreat leaders who would like meaningful moments from the retreat documented without arranging separate photography or videography services.
Content Capture is available as an optional add-on for retreat leaders hosting their retreat in Egypt with Timeless Travel by Giselle.
