Teacher Promotion Checklist

Marketing and promotion are continuous processes. It's why even major companies like Coca-Cola still advertise all the time! As they say, marketing is a numbers game!
Especially considering the short lifespan of online posts nowadays, it's important to be regularly doing outreach so you're on people's radars and have a higher chance of getting students to book lessons with you.

Below is our checklist to increase your chances of succeeding on Lessonface.
You can run through it multiple times, and we recommend going through the social items toward the end of the list on a weekly basis.

☐ Reach out to past students - ones that you haven't contacted in a while, or are in other locations
☐ Contact prospective students - consider messaging them again after 15-30 days if they haven't responded
☐ Offer online lessons to your mailing list
☐ Flyering (editable/downloadable template for flyering coming soon!)
☐ Add the Lessonface widget to your website (left-hand menu>>Promo Tools>>Create Sharing Widgets)
☐ Add your own Lessonface referral link to your Instagram bio link (find your link on Lessonface.com/Outreach)

☐ Post on Facebook artist page
☐ Post on Twitter
