Applying Practitioners

Advertising Policy

The Center is responsible solely for the advertising of The Center at Westwoods and will not be seen as a primary vehicle of advertisement for any one practitioner or facilitator. However, The Center reserves the right to highlight particular events if they feel it would encourage balanced growth to the Westwoods community.

Website

Every event will be listed on the calendar page, with a link to a separate event page detailing the workshop or class. These events are listed in chronological order.

For permanent or ongoing series and practitioners:
There will be a section under “Healing at Westwoods” that will pertain to your specific modality. Workshops and classes appear on the calendar as well; weekly, consistent offerings will be addressed on the one-week calendar on our calendar page.
Within this section you will also have a link to your bio and information about the classes or services you offer at Westwoods and links to your information should you have a website.

Email Campaigns
For upcoming workshops and new comers: Bimonthly a mailing is sent out to our email list that contains the workshops for the following two weeks. The workshops included in this mailing are chosen and placed in the mailing at the discretion of the administration. This is to ensure that The Center has the ability to create a diverse community as well as build our own revenue in the long term.

Spotlight Campaign
Once a month, The Center will send out an additional mailing that spotlights a particular practitioner, modality, workshop or program at The Center. This mailing continues in the spirit of education and to peak interest in someone who may not otherwise be exposed to a certain area of healing or spirituality. Again, these topics are chosen at the discretion of the administration.

Personal Advertising
Practitioners and Facilitators are welcome to leave flyers, cards, brochures, etc. to be put out by Center staff. You may only leave information if you are scheduled to facilitate a workshop or are a regular practitioner. If information is not reviewed by the administration first, it will be removed.

If you receive additional resources or help from the Center in advertising, some sort of payment will be arranged for these extra services. This will be negotiated for with the Executive Director.

Applying Practitioners

All practitioners must fill out a facilitator proposal for each and every event, session, or session series you would like to offer at the Center.

Proposals must be handed in no later than two months before the requested presentation date. It is recommended to hand in a proposal as early as possible.

All promotional materials must be handed to advertising no less than five weeks before the set workshop date. It is highly recommended to send materials with the proposal. If you have no marketing materials, all write-ups for the web, flyers, etc., created by The Center’s advertising, will be the property of The Center and may not be reproduced by the facilitator and used to advertise the workshop at a different venue. If you choose to create your marketing materials through The Center we will negotiate a price based on time and complexity.

Once your proposal has been seen and reviewed you will be contacted by The Center at Westwoods to discuss the next steps. While we make every effort to follow up in a timely fashion, please do not contact The Center once the proposal has been received.
