A PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITY
The Most Unforgettable Event You'll Ever Give Your Members... and You Won't Lift a Finger to Run It
A fully produced, three-day immersive experience at Disney's Grand Floridian. Curriculum built on a decade of insider Disney operations. Every detail handled. All you do is show up and collect the loyalty.
THE REAL PROBLEM
Your members are loyal right now. But it's not guaranteed. There's a countdown clock.
Look at your roster. Someone stopped engaging three weeks ago and someone else renewed last year without blinking and just asked for a payment plan. They're not gone yet, but they're already leaving. And more content won't stop it.
The moment your program stops feeling like an event in someone's life and starts feeling like a subscription, you're done. Subscriptions get cancelled and you know exactly the shift I'm talking about — from "I can't wait to tell people about this" to "yeah, I'm still in that." That silence is the most expensive thing in your business.
Your competitors are running the same hot seats, the same Q&As and the same virtual events. If your program feels like everything else, your members will treat it like everything else. That's not a content problem. That's an experience problem. And there's exactly one cure.
Kris Murray, Childcare Success Academy
We not only sold out the event from stage in just a few minutes, we oversold it to the point where we had to add another trip.
That's Kris Murray, founder of Childcare Success Academy, describing what happened when she partnered on Making the Magic. It was not a slow-burn enrollment or a hope-they-sign-up email sequence. Sold out from stage in minutes. That's what a category-defining experience does for your community and your business.

THE OPPORTUNITY
Give your clients the experience that cements your authority forever.
Making the Magic is a three-day immersive bootcamp at Disney's most prestigious resort, the
Grand Floridian. It's built on curriculum that doesn't exist anywhere else on the planet —
because it comes from someone who actually ran Disney operations, not someone who read
about it. And when you bring your members here, that insider access reflects directly on you.
01
Retention That Sticks
Members who share a transformational live experience don't just renew. They advocate. They recruit. They feel connected to your community in a way that no Zoom call can replicate.
02
Ascension Revenue
A sold-out event at Walt Disney World isn't cheap. That's the point. It naturally surfaces your top-tier members and creates an ascension vehicle that lives above your core program.
03
Borrowed Authority
You're not bringing in a generic speaker. You're giving your people access to someone who spent a decade inside Disney's operational machine. That reflects on your curation and your standards.
04
Stories That Sell For Years
The lore your members take home from this event becomes content, testimonials, and referrals. You'll be hearing "remember when we were at Disney" in your community for the next decade.
THE PARTNERSHIP MODEL
Your entire job is to sell the seats. Everything else is handled.
Most coaches who've run live events have a battle scar or two from venue nightmares, A/V disasters, catering debacles, and speaker cancellations. This isn't that. This is a white-glove partnership where you bring your audience and every single moving piece is handled.
Three nights at A PREMIER Disney Resort — Grand Floridian, The Contemporary (or equivelant) — fully negotiated and managed.
All meals planned, curated and executed. Your members eat well. That's not an accident.
Full three-day curriculum facilitation — classroom sessions, live park experiences in Magic Kingdom and EPCOT, guided operational tours.
VIP reception and exclusive night-time show viewing at EPCOT — the kind of moment your members will describe to people who weren't there.
All park tickets, access, and logistics from door to door.
All workbooks, blueprints, resources and implementation guides.
90-day follow-up coaching for attendees so the implementation actually happens.
Your members can extend their stay at preferred rates — turns a business event into a family vacation write-off
Vance Morris is our go-to resource for improving the service of our own private practices and the practices of our coaching clients throughout the world.
Vance was a big hit with our attendees! After our breakout sessions, many people shared with me how much they got out of Vance’s presentation on bringing Disney-level service to their practices. It’s a message that more business owners need to hear, and Vance is already on our shortlist of exciting and reliable presenters. And if you want the data, Vance scored as one of our highest-rated breakout speakers in our post-event survey!
Get him on stage to come speak for you, but even more importantly, go ahead and set it up so your members, your people, can go to Disney with him and see it like I did because what I saw was a whole new level inside of Disney. This is Mike Crow. You need to get to know Vance, your Disney expert.
WHAT YOUR MEMBERS ACTUALLY LEARN
This isn't a just Disney field trip but a systematic transformation in how they build their business.
The experience is the vehicle. The content is the transformation. Your members leave with a personalized service and retention blueprint built specifically for their business — and the operational knowledge to execute it the moment they land.
THE ARCHITECTURE OF LOYALTY
Disney doesn't measure customer satisfaction. They measure loyalty. There's a Harvard Business Review study showing a customer who rates you a four out of five is six times more likely to leave than one who rates you a five. Your members will learn exactly how Disney engineers that fifth star — and how to replicate the system in their own business, regardless of industry.
PREMIUM PRICING WITHOUT RESISTANCE
Disney charges more than almost any comparable entertainment option on earth. And people queue for hours to give them money. Your members will understand the exact psychology behind that — the experience design, the perceived value architecture, the storytelling that makes price objections disappear. The goal is 2x to 10x their closest competitor's pricing. This is the framework that makes it possible.
THE SYSTEMS BEHIND THE MAGIC
World-class experiences don't happen through inspiration. They happen through obsessive systems. Your members will see backstage — the operations, the training frameworks, the consistency mechanisms that allow Disney to deliver magic across thousands of employees and millions of guests. They'll learn how to build that same operational backbone in their own business.
SYSTEMATIC MAGIC — THEIR PERSONAL BLUEPRINT
Using the Systematic Magic framework, your members build their own personalized Disney-style service system during the event. They leave with a plan, not just inspiration. Three follow-up coaching calls ensure it actually gets implemented.
Crystal Vilkaitis, Rooted In Retail
Thank-you for the Disney experience!! The group has been sharing takeaways and feeling really inspired to jump into action.
I personally loved the special touches like the opening night dinner and service were amazing, the fireworks and dessert party were magical, and the hats and prizes were such a fun surprise. It was such a memorable and “pinch me” kind of experience, and I’m so grateful to have been part of it.
THE BUSINESS CASE
Run the math on what one retention event is worth to your program.
Before you ask what this costs to produce, ask what one member renewal cycle is worth to you. Then ask what happens when those members tell two colleagues about the experience.

This is a conservative model. It doesn't account for ascension revenue from members who want to upgrade after the event. It doesn't account for the authority amplification in your market. And it doesn't account for what it does to your own positioning when you're known as the coach who takes their people to Disney World every year.
IS THIS THE RIGHT FIT?
Not every coach or consultant is the right fit for this. The experience is boutique, capped at 30 primary attendees, and the host partnership needs to be the right match for both sides.
THIS IS BUILT FOR YOU IF...
You're already running a mastermind, membership, or high-ticket group coaching program
You have an audience that values transformation over information.
You want a live event that reflects your premium positioning without doing the production work.
You're looking for a powerful retention and ascension vehicle for your best members.
You want your community talking about your program for the next three years.
You serve professional services, home services, financial advisors, healthcare, or any client-facing business.
THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT FIT IF...
You're just starting out and building your audience from scratch
Your members are primarily focused on cost-cutting or commodity positioning.
You want a high-volume, conference-style event for hundreds of people.
You're not willing to actively promote the event to your audience.
You're looking to commoditize it by running it every 90 days
NEXT STEP
Let's find out if this is the right partnership
This starts with a conversation, not a registration form. Tell us about your program, your audience, and what you're trying to build. If it's the right fit, we'll map out exactly how to make it work for your community.

How many people do I need in my audience to make this work?
You don't need a massive list, but you do need a committed one. The minimum is 20 attendees per event — that's it. Coaches with tight, loyal communities of a few hundred people have sold this out faster than people with email lists in the thousands. This isn't a volume play. If your members trust you and value transformation, 20 seats is very achievable.
What does "done for you" actually mean? What do I have to do?
Three things.
1. Decide how you want to sell it from stage at one of your events, on a webinar, by email, or all three (that's what we recommend and the emails are written for you).
2. Host a landing page (we design it).
3. Process registrations (we handle the tech).
That's your list.
Everything else: the venue, the curriculum, the facilitation, the park experiences, the meals, the VIP moments, the follow-up coaching is handled. You show up, you take the credit, your members have the time of their lives.
Does this go out under your brand or mine?
Yours, with me as your co-host. The event is branded specifically for your community — "Making the Magic for [Your Name]" or "[Your Program Name] presents Making the Magic." Your members see it as something you curated and delivered for them. My name adds credibility as the Disney operations insider running the content. Nobody gets overshadowed. Both brands win.
Has this worked outside the coaching industry?
It's worked across more industries than most people expect. Past host partners have brought orthodontists, financial advisors, childcare center owners, physical therapists, attorneys, gym owners, realtors, dentists, carpet cleaners, resort operators, family entertainment centers and business coaches. If your members run businesses where customer experience and retention drive revenue, and whose don't, this content lands hard regardless of the niche.
What dates are available?
One partnership slot remains in Fall 2026. Two slots are open in Winter 2027 and three in Fall 2027. Each event is capped at 30 primary attendees so only one host partner runs per date. When a date is gone it's gone, we don't add slots or run concurrent events. If you're serious about a specific season, the conversation needs to happen now.
