Once you qualify, do you want a successful business or a hobby ❓
If you’ve answered hobby then you don’t need to worry about reading the rest of this.
However, if you’re considering becoming a teacher and leaving your current job or perhaps your children are now in school and you have some time to start doing something for yourself then a BUSINESS is what you’re after.
The two are very different.
Once I started treating my business like a business, my clients also started treating me like a business.
The mindset is very different to when you’re running classes for the fun of it and you’re not relying on the income. Neither are right or wrong – it’s just the intention behind it is very different.
Think of all your untiliies and house hold bills or perhaps a gym membership. THEY ALL CHARGE monthly.
So why not you?
When you offer pay as you go that is not what serious business owners do.
Yes maybe your local leisure centre offers drop in rates, however they’re a big organisation with disposable income behind them.
You on the other hand are a small business and you’re providing the capital so if your business doesn’t make the income, you’ll be running at a loss and it will be YOUR loss.
Here are the advantages of offering monthly packages:
👉 You get paid every month
👉 you can PAY YOURSELF every month
👉 You can see what is coming in every month and project your income so now you know how long it will take to reach your financial goals
👉 You know how much to invest back into the business to reach those goals
👉 you will attract COMMITTED clients who want to come regularly, and therefore THEY will get better results
👉 less admin time running after clients trying to get paid
👉 you will know how mny people are coming (I’ve turned up for classes inteh past and no one came so I still had to pay for the hall and that means it was coming out of my pocket)
👉 You won’t lose out when someone doesn’t show up or cancels late – you’ll still get paid
I’m sure if I can think of many more but I think you get the point.
Making this change to my business was one of the best decisions and it make the biggest impact in terms of a regular income.
Becoming a teacher is such an amazing “job” and it’s even better when you make a good living from doing something you absolutely love!
What more could you ask for ❣️
Lots of love,
Tanja
