The Package

Four parts. One plan built around your targets.

01

In person

Behind the Brands + Supper Club

A Behind the Brands experience plus a Supper Club, with hosted travel for 15–20 of your target accounts.

Behind the Brands takes your prospects behind the scenes of an event your client is producing: a tour during setup or at the live event, plus time with the team who built it. The Supper Club is a small, facilitated dinner with no presentations, conversation first. Club Ichi handles audience acquisition for your ideal customer profile and hosts the travel.

02

Online

Behind the Brands for Buyers Club members

A virtual session where you take Ichi Buyers Club members behind the scenes. This can be opened to the larger community with your approval.

03

A Trend Session

You present your trends for 20 minutes, then 10 minutes of live Q&A. Then you step out, and the buyers continue in a vendor-free roundtable among themselves. Thought leadership, not a pitch.

04

One larger package, built for biz dev

All of the above, planned together around your target accounts, so the in-person and online pieces build on each other.

The Buyers

Not an audience. Buyers.

Buyers Club currently includes event leaders from Workiva, 6sense, Webflow, Life360, Cordis, Dell, Paylocity, Amazon, Garner Health, Zillow.

How It Works

Four steps, start to follow-through.

  1. 1

    We agree on your targets

    We start with the accounts you most want to meet.

  2. 2

    We build the experiences

    We plan the in-person experience and the online sessions together.

  3. 3

    We fill the room

    Club Ichi handles audience acquisition and invites qualified buyers who want to explore what you offer.

  4. 4

    We follow through

    Every roundtable produces a written read-out delivered to every Buyers Club member, whether they attended or not, so your thinking keeps working after the event.

Why It Works

Vetted both ways

Every host is screened, and every guest is a qualified buyer who actually wants to explore what you offer.

No hard pitches

Buyers get information, conversation and inspiration. You're hosting, not selling. That's why they show up, and why they remember you.

Independent host

Buyers are hosted by Club Ichi, an independent organization, so they have no obligation to the sponsor. That makes it easier for them to say yes.

Ready to talk?

This package is built around your targets, so the best next step is a conversation.
