In this episode, I sit down with my good friend Anne-Marie, who has been running a unique tutoring business for over a decade. She shares the real lessons she has learned, from undercharging mistakes to building systems, hiring the right people, and scaling a tutoring business without burning out.
Topics we cover:
Why tutoring is not just about teaching, it is about running a business.
The importance of systems such as scheduling, invoicing, marketing, and customer service.
Charging what you are worth and avoiding the trap of undervaluing your time.
Specialisation and why being niche helps you grow stronger.
Communicating with parents as clients as well as the students.
Word of mouth marketing compared with paid advertising.
Growing from solo tutor to leading a team.
The value of connecting with other tutoring business owners.
If you are a tutor or thinking about becoming one and want to learn how to make your business profitable, sustainable, and rewarding, this episode is for you.
