New business guide: Understanding the Sales Process

You may not think of your job as a guitar teacher as a sales role. But the reality is everybody is a salesperson. Every time you try to convince your student to practice or get them to learn something new, you're selling. Of course whenever you speak to a prospective student, you're selling yourself and your lesson service.

Because sales is a big part of our professional lives, it's important to learn the sales process. We've created a new business guide to explain the basics of the sales process so you can use it to attract more students and keep the students you already have.

After reading the guide you will be able to use marketing much more effectively and know how to control the entire sales process from start to finish. If you're just starting out as a guitar teacher this guide will help you start on the right foot to attract your first students. On the other hand if you've been teaching for years, the guide will give you a way to refine your skills and stay competitive in the future.

Once you finishing reading the guide, it's recommended you do a self-assessment of your current sales process to see where you can make improvements.
