About this template

A seminar is four weeks of preparation for one hour that either fills your calendar or does not. This project plans it backwards from the date, with the invitation push and the follow-up given as much weight as the slides.

Tips from the template

  • Set the session date first (the "Session" task) and the rest falls into place.
  • Invite three times; most people register on the third.
  • Book appointments in the 48 hours after; that is when they say yes.
