In this episode of How to Run Profitable Retreats, host Leni Cavazos takes you into Pillar 3 of building a Six‑Figure Retreat Business: Sell for Profit.

If you've ever wondered why your retreats aren't bringing in the income, stability, or sustainability you expected — this episode is your wake‑up call. Selling for profit isn't about being pushy or salesy. It's about treating your retreat like a real business… not a passion project, not a hobby, and definitely not a "hope the universe provides" operation.

Leni breaks down: ◾️ Why transformative retreats STILL need profit to survive ◾️ The difference between marketing and sales (and why both matter) ◾️ The story of a retreat leader who accidentally priced away her entire profit margin ◾️ How boundaries, pricing integrity, and sales systems protect your business ◽️ Why 98% of your sales happen in the FOLLOW‑UP — not the sales call ⬛️ How to think like an investor when designing your retreat business ◻️ The crucial question every host must ask: Am I running a business or a hobby?

Leni also shares her behind‑the‑scenes experience running revenue strategies for global brands — including how a single report helped increase outside‑guest restaurant revenue by 36% at the Ritz‑Carlton Dubai — and why these same principles apply to your retreat business today.

If you're ready to stop "winging it" and start building a profitable, scalable sales ecosystem for your retreats, this pillar is essential.
