I know we are still only a few in the group but I wanted to start a Friday thread where you a can tell me what you need help with in your tutoring business. I can create a video or something else for that. Let me know!

Hi everyone! What are you up to today? Thursday is always my school day. I teach English in a school. This is the first year for me so it's kind of new. But I like it. What's your Thursday going to look like?

As a small business owner, branding becomes super easy. Because the branding is you! When you are you, you show up as you and not some super polished version of you, people listen. Because they are not just buying a product. They are buying what you stand for because you have some similarities to them. They buy your way of doing things, they buy THAT package. So do not be afraid to be you. If you're timid, be timid, if you are full of energy, be full of energy. That's what works best!

I have always been an early bird. I love waking up early and get a good start to the day. I do not have the time to do much office work before the school run but I like to get some house work in ;-) What are you? Early bird or night owl?

Happy Monday 🌿 I thought I’d share how I plan my week, in case it helps — especially at the start of a new community. All the standard things are already a given for me:lessons, lesson prep, school runs, shopping, cleaning, childrens’ activities… They’re part of life and the business, so I don’t even put them on my to-do list anymore. What does go on my list is one main business focus for the week. Just one. Because realistically, there’s already a lot going on. When I add too many “important” things, my brain goes straight to “I can’t do all of this” — and that’s not helpful. So I choose one non-routine business task. Last week, my focus was finishing and opening this Skool community. It happened… Sunday morning 😅 right down to the wire. This week, my focus is drafting my 2026/2027 tutoring schedule.I work around the school year, so September is my reset point. Some weeks, the goal isn’t future planning at all. It might be: - sorting and organising all my lesson games - getting my email list up to date - fixing something that’s been annoying me for weeks - Always something outside the weekly routine, but important for the bigger picture. 👉 What is one business goal for you this week that’s not part of your usual routine?
