12 Ways to Earn More Tutoring with Sean McCormick:

• Raise your rates: When you start to feel your schedule getting full with clients, start increasing your rates for the next incoming client. People don’t always want the cheapest service because it shows that your service has value. Look around at your competitors, see what they’re charging, and determine what works for you!
• Mind your business: Be thoughtful about who you hire. Find people who are credentialed and/or contract with others. Also, make sure your employees feel valued by checking in with them and ensure they have what they need to do their job efficiently.
• Automate with Intimacy: Have systems in place to make sure your business works effectively. Tutorbird and Loom are examples of an online system that makes running a tutoring business flow easier and saves loads of time. Additionally, delegate tasks that you do not have time for to other employees so that you can focus on growing your business.
• Play long-term games with long-term people: Relationships in business are extremely important. By building relationships with school administrators or attorneys, you gain opportunities for your business that you wouldn’t get otherwise. Go to a conference and connect with new people.
• Focus on what feels right for you: You can get creative with how you run your business such as creating a course or changing your business model to a remote business! Set boundaries, practice gratitude, and focus on abundance.
• Do less better: Be a minimalist with your work by niching down. Figure out what you’re really good at and focus your business on that niche. Most people don’t want to work with people who claim that their business is good at everything.
• Be an expert, command authority: Speak about your topic! For example, create your own course, start a podcast, write blog posts, make YouTube videos, and create models for your ideas. Go on Facebook, join groups that you are interested in, and answer people’s questions! Don’t try to sell something right away, focus on simply being helpful.
• Ask for feedback: After meetings with clients, ask them if the session was helpful. You can also create a google link for others to leave a review on your business. This generates a community and is a simple, effective way to gain feedback.
• Focus on community: Talk to your audience! You can create a Facebook group for your audience, build up your email list, or go live on Instagram or Facebook.
• Learn with Intention: Find learning materials like books or podcasts that will help you reach your specific goals.
• Think big: Have big goals! Create a vision board of what you want your life to look like. Write down your goals, look at them before you go to bed and when you wake up, and create an action plan with little steps throughout the week that will get you closer to your goal.
• Diversify your income: An example of how you can diversify your income are owning property, making strategic improvements to it, and refinancing it. Another way is to learn about index funds.
