We’ll take a values led approach, grounded in clarity, care, and community. You’ll learn how small, simple actions – rooted in your teaching intentions – can significantly improve how people discover and understand what you offer.
If marketing hasn’t always felt comfortable, this workshop is especially for you.
Over the course of this session, we’ll explore three connected themes:
- Why Discoverability Matters
We’ll begin by reframing marketing as a form of accessibility and service. You’ll learn how reducing barriers, offering clear information, and sharing your teaching openly can help people recognise when your courses are right for them. - Clear, Human Communication
We’ll explore how to describe your courses in warm, grounded language that feels true to your teaching. You’ll see examples of simple, inclusive messages that answer the questions people really have, without jargon or pressure. - Making Your Teaching Easier to Find
You’ll be introduced to practical tools and approaches you can use straight away, including where people commonly look for mindfulness courses and how to make your teaching easier to discover online. We’ll focus on small, sustainable steps that fit alongside your existing teaching life.
This event is included, at no extra cost, as part of the Oxford Mindfulness Members’ Programme.
