FranchiseInsider Candy Spill #14: MUSIC!


CANDY SPILL   #14

MUSIC!


Just One More Franchise Opportunity
(that you probably didn't know you could own) 



Public schools are cutting enrichment programs throughout the country. Gym, Art, Music, even Recess are all going the way of the dinosaur. It's tragic and wrong, but that's for another blog. You can be part of the solution by owning an enrichment franchise that focuses on music. With sound stage, recording studio, private one-on-one lessons or bands and choirs, you offer it all to the children of your community. No, it's not all classical music, like old fashioned music schools. You offer all genres. Music lessons aren't just for kids either. Adults want to get back into their piano, guitar, and voice lessons, but kids are the bread and butter of this industry. It's enrichment education because music stimulates different parts of the brain than math or history, so the children actually get better grades (it's a proven fact that children who perform music, and learn to read and write music increase their IQs too!)


Fun? you bet it's fun! Can you imagine owning your own recording studio?  As the owner you'll hire teachers and instructors, plan events and book performances, do charity work, plan and book birthday parties and plan summer camps and seminars. This is a feel-good, and be-the-coolest-business-owner-in-town kind of franchise.
This franchise has great opportunity for semi-absentee ownership, too. You don't have to know anything about music, but you do have to be  good leader, create a fun culture and be engaged in your community.



It's not rocket science to own your own business. It's just different from the masses. A great business isn't for everyone, but it might be for you...

Franchise Insider #5 Tutoring all ages


CANDY SPILL   # 5
Another franchise opportunity
(that you probably didn't know you could own): 

K-12 , Adult, Veteran, Tutoring


 

Kids need academic help these days and you might be the perfect one to provide it. 


Teachers! tired of the politics, low pay, union lock step, paper grading, meetings,meetings, meetings and early morning bad coffee, and the haunting wonder if you are making the kind of difference you aspired to when you first chose the profession of shaping young minds? Tutoring  reaches individuals where they need the help. Reading, SATs, math, filling in the learning gaps so a child can truly thrive at school. 

There's a huge demand as well for GED and advanced tutoring for our Veterans who have served our country and now want to pick up on their education where they may have left off. 


As the executive owner your job would be to network, meet with principals, PTA, create marketing events, support your local community, manage and schedule your teachers, create curriculum (or tweak the established curriculum), and grow the clientele. 

Parents are desperate for the right kind of help for their child. Teachers are yearning to work with children and make a real difference without the headache of public school restrictions. You can help parents, their children, part-time teachers, all while making  a better income than you would as a public school teacher. 


 Many tutoring franchise models are home based. You'll schedule tutoring sessions at clients' homes or libraries. Some are brick and mortar. It depends on what you want your business to be. 

After school hours, Saturdays. 3 or more employees.  Very scalable. The more P/T teachers you have, the more students you can take on. 


You don't have to be a teacher at all - you might just care about kids and their education. Great communication skills are required. 


It's not rocket science to own your own business. It's just different from the masses. A great business isn't for everyone, but it might be for you...
