If you set up a one or two day event, you will receive a private hour long session. I often team up with animal adoption agencies and individuals on special events. For rescue and shelter organizations, I can offer 10% of my earnings to the group following such an event. The group or individual commits to the following:

Promotional consideration in all flyers, advertisements and media.

A private area in which to do the readings.

Three chairs and a small table for promotional materials.

Press releases sent to local media. I provide the releases, sign-up sheets and flyers.

Booking the readings: filling in the pre-printed sign-up sheets and collecting pre-payment.

Travel and accomodation expenses for out of town events — this is negotiable. (A group member often volunteers to pay for a motel room and mileage is calculated at .40 cents per mile.)

If you are interested in a collaborative relationship guaranteed to boost attendance, please call me at (805) 781-0273 to discuss it. Most events are scheduled three to six months in advance to allow plenty of time for promotion.

Hosting a How to Communicate with Animals workshop is easy and fun, and the person who sets it up attends for free.

The one or two-day workshop usually takes place on Saturday and/or Sunday from 12noon-5pm, but if you have a group who prefers other days we can arrange that.

The cost of the workshop is $75 per person for a one day or $125 per person for a two-day with advanced payment required. I usually need ten people to hold a workshop, but the number varies depending on the location. Long distance travel may require more participants.

The person hosting the workshop attends for free, in exchange for the following:

An appropriate location that can accommodate 10 to 20 participants and some animals on the second day. For larger groups the hostess may need to find a meeting hall or classroom, and private homes work fine for smaller groups. Ideally this space would be free of charge, but I will be glad to pay for an inexpensive and comfortable location for larger groups, although I’ll need your help in finding such a location.

Refreshments for the break. A simple non-sugar snack like cheese and crackers, finger sandwiches, or trail-mix, tea and juice.

Promote the workshop locally by talking to people, contacting animal groups and posting flyers. When 4 people are committed to attending, I'll schedule the class, post it on my web site and send the information to my mailing list in the area. In geographical locations where I don't have many clients, the hostess will have to fill the workshop through promotion.

I will provide flyers and will happily present a free lecture the night before. I am also happy to participate in any radio, newspaper or TV interviews that you can arrange.
