Build a fun and profitable guitar teaching business

GUIDANCE AND RESOURCES TO HELP YOU RUN A FULFILLING, STRESS-FREE TEACHING STUDIO

 

Does this sound familiar?

Your Guitar Students...

🚫 Aren't playing enough between lessons
🚫 Have no idea what they want to play
🚫 Quit lessons before giving it a fair shake

Do you wish...

👉 You had more students for a full teaching schedule
👉 Teaching guitar brought in more income
👉 You could sign up new guitar students whenever you wanted

 

Now, Imagine…

A fulfilling full time teaching and playing career (no need for a crappy part time job)…

Feeling as confident teaching as you do playing guitar…

Your students thriving and learning with you for years!

“I was on the brink of giving up but now I can’t think of anything else I’d rather be doing. In the span of a week, I’ve gone from 12 to 18 students.”

Eric

Find Out Why Teachers LOVE TopMusicGuitar!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is TopMusicGuitar the place for me?

  • If you're a guitar teacher looking to be at the top of your game by teaching engaging lessons and building a solid teaching career then you're probably a perfect fit for TopMusicGuitar.

I can't afford this. I've only got a small studio!

  • It’s important to view your TopMusicGuitar membership as a business investment, rather than a personal expense.
  • If you’d like to grow your student numbers and create a sustainable business, then investing in TopMusicGuitar will help you achieve that goal much faster than working on your own.
  • In addition, because this is a business investment, you should aim to cover your membership from your studio admin fees and deduct it from your business account.
  • For example, let's say you teach 30 students. If you charge an admin fee of just $15 per student for the year, you've easily covered the cost of your membership. This is how many members invest in their business without it coming out of their own ‘back pocket’.
  • Try and consider your subscription as part of a bigger picture growth strategy for you and your studio. Oh and remember, it's likely to be a tax deductible business expense (depending on your jurisdiction).

HOW IS THIS COMMUNITY DIFFERENT TO THE FACEBOOK GROUPS I FOLLOW?

  • We find there are three big problems with Facebook groups: it’s too easy to get distracted, there’s too much complaining and it’s really difficult to search.
  • TopMusicGuitar's exclusive forums are designed around your needs and development. Without the noise of Facebook and its cat videos and whingers, you can get straight to work, asking the questions you need and getting responses from around the world.
  • You can easily search anything on the site (including all discussions) using a dedicated search bar at the top of every page.
  • Only members and TopMusic experts are allowed to use the forums, so you get the best possible answers from the most experienced teachers, without all the distractions and complications. And you can access it all from your very own dedicated app.

IS ALL THE CONTENT AVAILABLE STRAIGHT AWAY?

  • Yes. When you become a member, you get access to everything that's relevant to the tier you signed up for. The only thing that isn't there is the stuff we're still creating :) New content is released regularly.

WHAT IF I'M ALREADY A GREAT TEACHER WITH A FULL STUDIO? IS THERE ANY POINT?

  • Great teachers never stop learning and are always looking for innovative methods.
  • Lots of our members have big studios, contracted teachers and even multiple locations and they choose to continue their membership to pass on their knowledge to other teachers.
  • By sharing your own ideas and helping other teachers, you'll develop and grow as a guitar teacher. Regardless of how experienced we are, there are always new things to learn and try and being inside TopMusicGuitar is the BEST way to keep on top of new developments in our industry.

WILL YOU BE ADDING NEW CONTENT OR IS IT ALL THERE ALREADY?

  • New content is added regularly as we continue to develop new courses, lesson plans and downloads. In addition, all the items uploaded by members and our TopMusicPro Experts are freely available to use in your own teaching. That's why the forums are such a great place for sharing ideas.

HOW DO I GET VALUE FOR MONEY?

  • We’ll email you a weekly update of new releases, features, upgrades, top discussions and courses so you can get an overview of what’s been happening, even if you’ve been busy. We also do a monthly member update sharing some of the bigger feature releases and upcoming dates for your calendar.
  • Members see the best returns by committing a small amount of time each week to pop into the forums, share their thoughts, ask questions and generally get involved.
  • And remember that if you charge around $US40-60 per lesson, then the cost of TopMusicGuitar Membership is less than the income from just one of your lessons each month. Can you afford not to be involved?

DO I RECEIVE ANYTHING IN THE MAIL WHEN I JOIN?

  • TopMusicPro is 100% online. There is no mailed information, however from time to time we do like to surprise our members, so you never know!

WHAT IF I WANT TO CANCEL MY MEMBERSHIP?

  • If you decide that membership isn't right for you, you have 30 days in which to cancel according to the 100% money-back guarantee.
  • If you do decide to cancel, while we'll be very sad to see you go, you'll be able to do this yourself with a few mouse clicks through your "My Account" page.
