For coaches + course creators running live workshops
3 strategies That Get My Clients & I 50% Show Up Rates On masterclasses
When Industry Standard Is 15% or Less.
with sophie griffiths, leading scaling strategist & creator of the superfans approach™️
as a coach or course creator, getting people to your masterclass live is half your job done.
When you have 50-70% of people who sign up attend live, people signing up for your offer, or sales calls before you’ve even finished becomes totally normal.
Not because you have to hard-sell them, but because they are in the room, in the energy, & ready to take action.
That's what live does that nothing else can replicate.
It's easy to tell yourself people will watch the replay (and some will) but the live energy is what moves people fast… the questions, the spontaneous moments, the feeling of being in something together.
Replays are passive whereas coming live is a conversation and conversations move people to being SuperFans and then into becoming clients.
And here's the thing about the people who don't show up: they wanted to be there.
They signed up because something in your topic caught them at exactly the right moment and they said yes.
They just need help holding onto that intention when life fills up around it - a busy Tuesday, a forgotten calendar, a notification they missed. That's all it takes to lose them.
The coaches getting 50%+ in the room aren't running more compelling workshops but they just doing 3 things you probably aren't doing yet, because nobody showed you…until now!
3 strategies to boost your workshop ‘show up rate’ I use & teach to my clients (which you’re about to steal):
1. Get them there
The Google Calendar hack that automatically adds your event to their calendar the second they sign up plus how to send a personal reminder to everyone who hasn't confirmed yet.
2. Start the conversation
What I add to every sign-up form (takes 10 seconds) and what I do so that people feel like they already know me before the workshop even starts.
3. Continue the conversation
The one thing I save exclusively for people who show up live and how I deliver it in a way that keeps the conversation going long after the workshop ends.
