I got a new client who asked me to teach their year 11 child, 2 hours every week. I said okay, I took him through the enrolment process and they loved it (including a 30 minute free consultation). I sent him an invoice for the whole month. He said he can't pay it all upfront. He will pay it on Monday on a weekly bases. Monday comes, the student is ready but the father has not paid. You messaged and called him but he does not pick up. It is possible the father forgot and will pay on Tuesday. What would you do and why? Vote and leave a comment !!!

Basically, I was cut 3 hours a week from my week by cancelling a 2 different group class. How ? I merged two different groups whilst keeping the price the same. The group classes still fell below the maximum 5 students which is good. The other 2 hours I promoted as free but unfortunately the take up wasn’t as I expected so I decided to stop doing 2 hours and start doing 1. Moved a few students around and that’s it. Try this in your business 👍

So I made a video about the comments Donald Trump made about Somalis. It was a quick video that took no longer than 2 minutes to record and 5 minutes to edit using capcut. What has it got to do with tutoring ?? Absolutely nothing. However it is a relevant topic to me and many people around the global. The topic has been hot for almost a week now. I just stated my opinion in the video. However, 300k people watching my video is always good for business and tutoring. Why, they look at my page and see I am an online math tutor and the link to my website is clearly video on my tiktok home page. This my friends is how you can get clients. If you want your business to do well and well quickly use social media and leveage the algorithm. It's free to start and run a tiktok page. So do it. Let me know if you seen my video and if you have any questions about it !!

Salam everyone Juma Mubarak. The group has been so quiet this week

“Asalamu Alaykum everyone, I’d love some advice from those who have scaled their tutoring business.I’m currently in a position where I’m considering taking 6 months off from full-time work (after my PGCE) to focus fully on building my tutoring income and systems. For those who’ve done something similar:– Is taking a 6-month period to focus solely on scaling realistic?– Did stepping away from full-time work help you grow faster?– Any mistakes or tips you’d share? I want to make a strategic decision, so any insights would be hugely appreciated.
