We feel this deep in our souls.

There is often so much pressure with sales calls, and absolutely nobody wants to have high pressure sales tactics used against them ("Buy today or else we will triple the price *and* punch you in the face." Okay, maybe not the last part, but you know that's how it can feel.) At Five Ives, we do things differently.

First, we offer online quotes without a sales call needed for the Staff Sustainability System. It only takes two minutes and we can give you a detailed estimate for implementation.

Second, we never engage in gross sales trickery. If we do jump on a call to iron out details, it will leave you feeling seen and heard and there is never any pressure from us! We want the best for you and your organization, even if it (sadly) isn't us! 

Also, we don't keep pricing off the website to trick you into a sales call. We don't have pricing on the website because our packages are custom built and there are a lot of factors to consider. How long is the program? Is it in person and are there travel costs? How many people are in the program? Is it multi-tiered (e.g. a coaching program for leadership combined with a full-day program for frontline staff)?

We are open that we are looking for organizational leaders ready to invest in organizational wellness and that our average package starts at $24,000 for small organizations with less than 40 staff, and our most commonly purchased package is a six-month coaching program for practitioners. For organizations with more than 500 staff, generally the packages will start around $150,000.

We do offer smaller packages for organizations on a budget. Contact us with your budget restrictions and we can discuss the options.

If you send us the information for what you are looking for, we can create a rough estimate for you!

Absolutely! In the Five Ives stages, this is the "Survive" stage and we understand how difficult it is to think about starting a program when everything is falling apart. We meet organizations where they are and gently help them take steps toward organizational wellness.

Generally, the only one-time one-hour training sessions we do is for conference keynotes or breakout sessions. Most of our packages are coaching programs designed to provide ongoing support and real lasting organizational change. Our most common package is our six month coaching program (one hour sessions once a month for six months) because it balances affordability with the need for ongoing support. 

It can be challenging to implement large-scale change quickly, especially if your organization is in crisis mode. (The Five Ives stages speak to this!) But this does not mean there aren't options.

One effective strategy is to have a voluntary pilot program and collect data from the programming to inform the next stages of the project. When people see how effective it is to regulate the nervous system and establish healthy practices that reduce stress and encourage productivity and peace, they will want to reduce their own feelings of distress created by burnout. Simply put, other people will raise their hands to participate!

Another option is to create a plan for phases of implementation that address organizational needs. For example, in a school district, a leadership program over the summer followed by a roll-out across the school district that spans a few semesters could help create space for the project within the larger organizational needs. 

We currently offer some on-demand resources you can read about here.

We have blog and podcast full of actionable help that's free here.

We can also customize your experience with the Staff Sustainability System™ to reduce up-front costs. We recommend smaller organizations with a limited budget request information about the Relief portion of the system and

If you are looking for a more holistic program that gives support to a greater number of staff at a lower cost per person, we recommend applying for grant funding to help pay for the Staff Sustainability System™ . We can help you as you work through the grant application process with language to describe our services and pricing estimates to give to potential funders.

The short answer is that it depends. We do charge a speaking fee and travel expenses. Submit a request at jessica[at]fiveives..com and we can chat about your needs!
