Stop Charging me Brandon please!

It’s easy to get students. It’s easy to put in the hours. True freedom is creating passive income. This can be a challenge if you don’t have a plan of action. I’ve been able to offload most of my students to another teacher that i pay to teach guitar. Here is the truth, if you’re running ads, you will come across other people who are passionate about playing and could be a good candidate for teaching your students. While I charge $70/hour for my lessons, I pay my teacher $22/hr. This is where time freedom comes into play. I’ve spent several hours coaching my teacher how to teach my students, and he simply teaches. At this point, all you have to worry about is scheduling, getting paid, and paying your teacher weekly. I say all this because more than helping you learn this type of business model, it’s more important to me to show you there is an option of getting paid to sit back and collect cash every month. This is a true example of passive income. Everything is a process and takes time…but if you are really dedicated, you too can create a side hustle for yourself that makes money while you sleep.

Let's run through the numbers really quick. One student is worth $140 a month...that means 10 students is 5 hours of your time a week. That would add $1400 a month to your income! Nothing to shake a stick at! If you have a full-time job, can you dedicate 5 hours on the weekend to teaching guitar? Maybe that could look like 3 hours on Saturday and 2 hours on Sunday. This is where it all began with me. I had a job...I worked full-time. I was looking for a way out and this is where it started. Dial in your schedule and tell me what availability you have. Is it a couple days during the week or is it only on the weekends? You have an opportunity to give yourself a raise. Start small. 1 or 2 students could mean paying the electric bill, paying your phone bill, or investing that into the stock market. (That's what I've done) Compounding interest is a beautiful thing! Whatever your situation...are you going to let those negative thoughts dictate what you do with your free time? Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Now is the time to change that! Go through the free training. Take action. Comment in the community what you are doing. I never ask for anything. I want to see musicians thrive with the knowledge they have. Good luck!

There are so many guitarist who are sitting on the fence about teaching guitar as a side hustle. What is really stopping you from making that next step?
