From June 12 to 15, 2025, eighty of the world’s most forward-thinking educators will gather in Denver for a transformative experience that’s unlike any other in the education sector. Hosted by The Teacher Project, this four-day event isn’t just another conference; it’s a curated experience for teachers who are ready to turn their skills into thriving, scalable businesses.
Led by bestselling author and founder Elliot Phillips, this invitation-only intensive is designed for educators who see the shifting future of learning and want to lead it, not just survive it. At its core, this summit is about empowering teachers to build systems, attract students, and create businesses that scale without sacrificing purpose.
Small Room. Big Impact.
The Sales Launchpad isn’t just another professional development event; it’s a deliberate rethinking of how educators grow. Hosted by The Teacher Project, this four-day intensive is limited to just 80 participants, creating an environment where every conversation and session is tailored for profound impact.
Fewer people mean more depth. It means real-time mentorship, personalized feedback, and a level of intimacy that makes breakthroughs more likely. “This exclusive event represents a rare opportunity for select teachers to transform their approach to student acquisition and enrollment,” says Elliot Phillips, founder of The Teacher Project. For him, The Sales Launchpad is more than a title; it’s a mission to help educators build scalable systems, attract students consistently, and master the sales skills that drive long-term success.
Day one is all about educators who are already in the growth phase; those ready to scale up by hiring other teachers and delegating tasks that drain their energy. On day two, the spotlight shifts to lead generation and booking more discovery calls with prospective students. Day three dives deep into sales conversion systems and long-term scale. The fourth and final day is dedicated to high-impact networking and community building, because breakthroughs don’t end when the training does.
The structure reflects a simple truth: educators today don’t just need inspiration. They need systems. They need tools. They need a good strategy, and most importantly, they need each other.
From Teacher to CEO
Since 2020, The Teacher Project has trained more than 3,000 educators to turn their knowledge into profitable online businesses. Some started as solo tutors with a few students. Months later, they were enrolling thousands. The transformation didn’t happen by accident; it was the result of applying proven business strategies to a field that had long ignored them.
Participants in the Denver summit won’t just walk away with theory; they’ll leave with personalized action plans, refined offers, and repeatable frameworks they can implement immediately. The learning is active, collaborative, and grounded in real-world application.
It’s this practical approach that has earned The Teacher Project global recognition. From a feature on the Nasdaq billboard in Times Square to its bestselling book, Teaching On Your Own Terms, the brand has become a beacon for teachers who want more: more freedom, more income, and more impact.
That demand is rising fast. According to recent research, the global online education market is expected to reach $375 billion by 2026. This growth opens massive opportunities for teacher-led platforms and boutique educational brands. However, the educators who will thrive are those who understand how to position themselves, not just as tutors, but as business leaders.
Phillips and his team of former educators know this firsthand. They’ve built a system that teaches teachers how to become entrepreneurs without losing the heart of what they do. The Denver event is the latest and most refined expression of that vision.
The Future of Professional Development
For many teachers, professional development has long been limited to school-run workshops, compliance training, and academic conferences. The Denver Intensive flips that model on its head. Instead of focusing on what schools want, it centers on what educators need: autonomy, clarity, and forward momentum.
This isn’t a passive experience where attendees take notes and return to business as usual. It’s immersive. It’s intentional. It’s designed to shake up old assumptions and create real momentum in just four days.
The ripple effects from past events have been powerful. Previous attendees have launched group programs, hired teams, tripled their incomes, and built global student communities. Many credit the experience with changing not just their business, but their identity.
What makes this summit even more powerful is the emphasis on collaboration. Attendees won’t just meet mentors; they’ll meet peers walking the same path. That peer support often becomes a long-term community, with partnerships, accountability groups, and even joint ventures emerging after the event.
It’s no surprise, then, that seats are filling fast. The Teacher Project has opened applications to qualified educators who are serious about growth and ready to act. Those accepted will gain access to resources, coaching, and a community that supports their evolution from teacher to entrepreneur.
