Today’s episode is all about something absolutely essential if you want to see your microschool grow and get those seats filled, but here’s the thing… so many educators overlook it when they’re just starting out. What am I talking about? 

Your Marketing & Enrollment Plan. If you’re a teacher, then you probably got a degree in teaching, not marketing. But stick with me, because by the end of this episode, you're going to feel confident about getting your dream students enrolled and filling your program faster than you thought possible.

Let me ask you something… how would it feel to have a full roster of excited learners ready to start their journey with you on day one? Imagine walking into your beautifully prepared classroom, meeting all your new families, and knowing that you built this—this community, this vision, this dream. Sounds pretty great, right?

Well, here’s the secret: that’s not going to happen without a solid enrollment plan. Now, don't get me wrong—students can come to you without a plan in place, but it’ll be a lot harder, a lot slower, and you’ll miss out on tons of opportunities to connect with the right families.

In today’s episode, I’m going to walk you through why having an enrollment plan is an absolute game changer for your microschool or homeschooling business, and I’m going to break down the key pieces you’ll want to include in your plan to get families excited, onboarded, and fully enrolled—without the stress or guesswork.

Are you ready, let’s get started.
