Weekend Intensives

Two full days on a weekend, structured so that working people can attend without taking time off. Saturday and Sunday, 9am to 5pm, at our Makati City venue.

The Weekend Format

The workshop runs across Saturday and Sunday so that participants who are employed full-time can attend without needing to request leave. Sessions begin at 9am and close at 5pm each day, with a lunch break and two shorter breaks built in.

The two-day structure is deliberate. Day One covers account setup and product listing fundamentals. Day Two moves into operations, shipping, and performance management. Spreading the content across two days prevents information overload and gives participants an evening between sessions to process what they learned.
