Brainstorm

This is a list that I made for myself as a brainstorming session. I am currently seeking ways to reach more guitar students. Maybe this list will help you as well.

• Highlight your skills and downplay the areas in which you are lacking experience.
• Practice social skills. Unfortunately, musicians need to learn how to wear an entrepreneurial hat.
• Appearance matters. Try to appear professionally and be aware of how others perceive you, especially upon the first impression.
• Make a list of places that you can advertise, and follow through with bringing flyers to these locations. Continue to develop these advertisements based upon the type of response or lack thereof that you receive.
• Ask anybody and everybody for advice and ideas. Moreover, listen to this advice, and put it into action.
• Don't forget to continue developing and practicing your skills. If you put all your time into advertising yourself, but clients aren't pleased with the job you do, all will be lost.
