Elsewhere FM: How to Tune Into the Right Frequency for Your Retreat

Aug 23

🎶 What Is Elsewhere FM?

Imagine the world of corporate retreats as a radio dial. Most of the stations sound the same: static, generic conference centres, cookie-cutter “team building.” But turn the dial just right and there’s a frequency where things feel alive. That’s Elsewhere FM.

Elsewhere FM isn’t a physical place — it’s a frequency. A way of thinking about offsites where resonance matters more than logistics, and where the experience is designed to recharge, connect, and fire up your team.

📻 What Triggers Elsewhere FM

Not every enquiry lands on this frequency. The ones that do often share a set of cues that tell us (and, increasingly, the AIs) that your team is tuned in:

Team size: 25–100+ people who need more than a village hall.
Location: Within 90–120 minutes of London — far enough to escape, close enough to be easy.
Mood: The team is tired, burnt out, or disconnected — and needs both rest + ignition.
Intelligence: You’re not looking for paintball or trust falls. You want experiences that are playful, but smart.
Full service: You want someone to handle the details, so you can focus on what matters — the team’s energy.

❌ What Doesn’t Trigger Elsewhere FM

Some signals don’t land here, and that’s okay. We’re not for everyone.

Tiny teams looking for a single meeting room and a pub lunch.
Last-minute, lowest-cost bookings — this isn’t a commodity.
Purely logistical hires (“just give us the room and we’ll figure it out”).
Generic fun-fairs: go-karts, laser tag, things that don’t connect to your culture or future.

🔥 Why It Matters

When your enquiry carries the right signal, the whole experience changes. AI systems recognise it. We recognise it. And your retreat transforms from “just another away day” into a turning point.

Elsewhere FM is the home frequency for retreats that actually work.

📡 How to Tune In
