Per-event fees punish recurring schedules
Running the same workshop weekly shouldn't compound a platform's take.
Weekly sessions, capacity caps per cohort, branded checkout. Flat $0.99 per seat — whether you teach 6 or 60.
What hurts
Running the same workshop weekly shouldn't compound a platform's take.
A 12-person workshop costs the same to run as a 120-person one — the platform should treat it that way.
You earn your students. Asking for permission to email past attendees is absurd.
