The MT Biz 101 E-Course will be released this coming Monday, June 2!

After a year and a half of creating the content and working on the tech side of things in the backend, I am so excited that this course is finally ready to share.

You can take a sneak peek into the course’s Basic Package here (which includes the E-Course) and into the Pro Package here (which includes the E-Course, plus add ons like minisodes and personalized business coaching!)

The Basic Package is pre-approved by CBMT for 8 CMTEs, and the Pro Package is pre-approved for 20 CMTEs.

To give you another peek behind the curtain of some of the material you’ll see in the course, today I’m sharing 3 tips to help launch your business forward now.

These are things I wish I had done sooner, and have helped move the needle forward in my business –

1. Create Form Emails – Write once, copy and paste a thousand times.

I don’t know why this took me so long, but I finally  have form emails for the emails I tend to write over and over again. In both English and Spanish, I have pre-written emails:

  • For the 1st time I call a potential client and can’t reach them
  • For the 2nd time I call a potential client and can’t reach them (I add our information packet to this email)
  • Requesting authorization form information from the parents for medicaid
  • With instructions for how to get a new music therapy authorization with medicaid
  • With our information packet and basic info about our services
  • For those being placed on the wait list if we don’t have a therapist with availability

2. Separate Your Personal and Professional Income & Expenses – Do this from the very beginning. You (and your accountant) will thank me at tax time.

Create a business bank account so your personal and professional income and expenses are clearly separated. I use accounting software that is connected to my business bank account. So, all business income is recorded and all business expenses are deducted, which makes it easy to see where the money is coming from and where it is going. I can easily print reports which saves time and money at tax time.

3. Hire the Professionals – Some things are best left to the professionals.

Know where your creative expertise lies versus where you will save time by hiring someone else. When I first started my business, I tried to wear all the hats. ALL. The. Hats. I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off. Now, I let me bookkeeper and accountant handle the financial side of things, and my web developer handle website fixes when they’re needed. This frees me up to do what I love and what I do best – plan and facilitate my music therapy sessions, and set up new contracts.

This is just a snapshot into the course, where I share even MORE tips and information to help you launch and grow a successful music therapy business.

As the owner of a thriving business that operates with 17 therapists in three different states, and as someone who truly loves their business and the way their life is set up, I cannot wait to share this information with you.

Mark your calendar because the course launches Monday, June 2nd!
