Long-Term Pricing Strategy

As I build experience, testimonials, and a track record of impact, pricing will scale accordingly while maintaining accessibility.

Phase 1: Building Portfolio (Year 1)

£150-£300 per workshop (below market rate)
Focus: testimonials, case studies, impact data
Target: 20-30 workshops
Goal: demonstrate value and refine approach

Phase 2: Established Provider (Years 2-3)

£400-£700 per workshop (market rate)
Established track record with evidence
Target: 50+ workshops annually
Goal: sustainable income + grant funding

Phase 3: Scaling Impact (Years 3-5)

£500-£900 per workshop
Train-the-trainer programmes
Digital resources and online courses
Goal: reach more schools, broader impact

Funding Model

To keep workshops accessible for underfunded schools, I'm using a mixed funding model:

Revenue Streams

1. Paid Workshops (40-50%)

Schools and organisations that can afford market rates subsidise access for those that can't.

2. Grant Funding (30-40%)

Targeting mental health in schools, neurodiversity, and youth wellbeing grants.

3. Festival & Event Work (10-20%)

Paid appearances at festivals, conferences, and community events.

4. Donations & Sponsorship (5-10%)

Community supporters and corporate sponsors who believe in the mission.

Grant Funding Targets

Postcode Communities Trust: Small grants (£2k-£10k)
Mental Health in Schools: Government and charity programmes
Youth & Neurodiversity: Specialist funders
Big Give Christmas Challenge: Match-funding campaigns
Local Authority: Bristol City Council wellbeing initiatives

CIC Model

As a Community Interest Company, I can access grant funding prioritised for social enterprises while earning income through workshops. The asset lock ensures any profits are reinvested in the mission.

Market Context

Here's what similar organisations charge and how they operate, for transparency:

Changes Bristol (Charity — Registered 2016)

Model: Peer support groups + workplace training (charity-funded)
Income 2024/25: £305,071 (including £49,750 government grants)
Expenditure 2024/25: £400,269 (operating at £95k deficit)
Team: 100 volunteers, 9 unpaid trustees
Financial trend: Growing services but running deficits typical of grant-dependent charities
Income history: £240k (2021) → £219k (2022) → £303k (2023) → £335k (2024) → £305k (2025)

Self Agency (Private Consultancy)

Model: Neurodiversity workshops + coaching (for-profit consultancy)
Clients: UWE, Bristol City Council, Bristol University, Prince's Trust, Triodos, Bristol City FC
Pricing: Likely £1,500-£3,000 per day for corporate training
Financials: Private company — no public accounts required
Positioning: Premium neurodiversity consulting for employers

Where My Approach Fits

The CIC sweet spot: Between grant-dependent charity and premium corporate consultancy.

More sustainable than pure charity: Less grant dependency through earned income
More accessible than corporate: Schools and community organisations can actually afford it
Can scale sustainably: Mix of paid work + selective grants vs. constant fundraising pressure
Mission-aligned pricing: Those who can pay subsidise those who can't

My focus: schools, younger audiences, and creative/emotional toolkit building — not corporate neurodiversity consulting.
