Have you noticed just how many more products are available to music schools now?

The number of software products, coaches, and programs to license have exploded in number over the past few years.

That’s because many studio owners are waking up to the fact that they might have ideas, curriculum, or expertise that could be helpful to other school owners.

The sticking point for most school owners is that they aren’t sure how to go about sharing that idea with the world!

Join us in today’s podcast as we talk to Dave Simon…

He developed a curriculum for his own school… and then began licensing it to other schools.

In today’s episode, he gives:

Practical wisdom for getting your own product off the ground
Loads of advice for marketing your music school
Many ideas for running great programs inside your school
