How to Book Schools & Community Organizations for Your Girls Empowerment Workshops

for girls empowerment leaders Mar 19, 2025

One of the best ways to grow your girls empowerment coaching business is by working with schools and community organizations. Schools, after-school programs, nonprofits, and youth groups are always looking for confidence-building workshops, leadership training, and personal development programs for girls—but many don’t have the time or resources to create them.

That’s where you come in.

By positioning yourself as a certified girls empowerment coach, you can offer ready-to-go workshops that provide real value to their students or members. But how do you get booked?

This guide will walk you through exactly how to reach out, pitch your workshop, and secure bookings so you can start getting paid to empower girls.

 

Key Takeaways

  • Schools and community organizations want empowerment programs, but they need clear, easy-to-book solutions.
  • The best way to get booked is to offer workshops that solve a real need, such as confidence-building, leadership, or self-esteem.
  • Reaching out the right way (with a strong pitch and follow-up strategy) makes a huge difference.
  • Pricing your workshops confidently helps schools see the value of what you offer.
  • A certification gives you credibility and makes it easier to get booked by schools and organizations.

 

 

Step 1: Identify the Right Schools & Organizations

Not all schools and organizations will be the right fit for your workshops. Instead of reaching out to everyone, focus on places that already serve teen or tween girls and value empowerment programs.

Best Places to Offer Girls Empowerment Workshops:

βœ” Public & Private Schools – Many schools offer social-emotional learning (SEL) programs and leadership workshops.
βœ” After-School Programs – Youth groups like Girl Scouts, Boys & Girls Clubs, and YMCA often host guest speakers and coaches.
βœ” Nonprofits & Community Centers – Many organizations have mentorship programs for girls and need confidence-building sessions.
βœ” Libraries & Youth Leadership Programs – Many public libraries host workshops on empowerment and life skills.
βœ” Church Groups & Faith-Based Organizations – Some churches offer teen mentorship and leadership programs.

 

Step 2: Create a Workshop Schools & Organizations Will Want to Book

Before reaching out, make sure your workshop is clear, valuable, and easy for decision-makers to say yes to.

How to Make Your Workshop Stand Out:

βœ” Keep it simple. A clear, focused workshop is easier to book than a broad, general program.
βœ” Solve a specific problem. Schools and youth groups are looking for topics like:

  • Confidence & Self-Esteem
  • Leadership & Goal Setting
  • Social Media & Self-Worth
  • Friendship & Communication Skills
  • Stress & Anxiety Management
    βœ” Make it interactive. Schools love workshops that are engaging, discussion-based, and hands-on.
    βœ” Offer different formats. Some schools prefer one-time workshops, while others want a series over several weeks.

 

Step 3: Reach Out to the Right People

Once you’ve created your workshop, it’s time to start reaching out to schools and organizations. But who should you contact?

Key Decision-Makers to Contact:

βœ” School Counselors & Social-Emotional Learning Coordinators – They organize workshops that focus on confidence, mental health, and personal growth.
βœ” Principals & Assistant Principals – They oversee school programming and approve outside speakers.
βœ” Teachers & Advisors – Many teachers, especially those in leadership programs, are looking for guest speakers.
βœ” After-School Program Directors – They book workshops for clubs, mentoring programs, and enrichment activities.
βœ” Nonprofit & Youth Program Directors – They run programs focused on personal development and empowerment.

 

Step 4: Craft the Perfect Pitch

When reaching out, your pitch should be clear, concise, and focused on the benefits of your workshop.

Email Pitch Template for Schools & Organizations

Subject: Confidence-Building Workshop for [School Name] Girls

Hi [Name],

My name is [Your Name], and I’m a Certified Girls Empowerment Coach. I specialize in helping teen and tween girls build confidence, leadership skills, and self-worth through engaging, interactive workshops.

I’d love to bring my [Workshop Name] to [School Name]. This workshop helps girls [key benefits—ex: develop confidence, set goals, overcome self-doubt], and it aligns with [mention school priorities like SEL, leadership programs, or mental health initiatives].

Here’s what’s included:

  • A 60-90 minute interactive session with confidence-building activities and discussions
  • Practical tools for girls to apply in their daily lives
  • A flexible format (one-time workshop or multi-week series)

I’d love to chat about how this could be a great fit for your students. Do you have 15 minutes this week for a quick call?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

Best,
[Your Name]
[Your Website or Contact Info]

 

Step 5: Follow Up (and Keep Following Up!)

Most decision-makers are busy, and you probably won’t get a response on your first email. That’s why following up is key.

Follow-Up Strategy:

  1. Wait 5-7 days, then send a follow-up email.
  2. If no response, call the school or office and ask if they saw your email.
  3. If still no response, try a different contact person at the same school or organization.
  4. Keep track of your outreach in a simple spreadsheet to stay organized.

Many people give up after one or two emails, but persistence is often what gets you booked!

 

Step 6: Price Your Workshop with Confidence

One mistake many new coaches make is pricing too low (or for free) because they assume schools won’t pay.

But here’s the reality: Schools and organizations have budgets for programs like this. You just need to present your pricing with confidence.

Pricing Guidelines for Girls Empowerment Workshops:

πŸ’° One-Time Workshop (60-90 mins): $500–$2,000
πŸ’° Multi-Session Program (4-6 weeks): $1,500–$5,000
πŸ’° School-Wide Assemblies: $1,000–$5,000
πŸ’° After-School or Summer Programs: $2,000+

How to Present Your Pricing:

βœ” Include pricing on your website or in your email pitch so schools know what to expect.
βœ” Offer flexible pricing options for different budgets (ex: a one-time session vs. a full series).
βœ” Consider grant funding—some schools can use grant money for leadership and social-emotional learning programs.

 

Step 7: Deliver a High-Value Workshop (and Get Invited Back!)

Once you book a workshop, your goal is to make it so impactful that they want to book you again.

How to Make Your Workshop a Success:

βœ” Engage the girls from the start with an icebreaker or fun activity.
βœ” Make it interactive—use discussions, activities, and real-life examples.
βœ” Provide take-home resources so girls can continue learning.
βœ” Follow up with the school and ask for feedback (and a testimonial!).

Bonus Tip: Ask for referrals. If a school loves your workshop, ask them to introduce you to another school or organization!
