Q: WANT
A BUSINESS THAT PROVIDES REPEATING MONTHLY
INCOME?
A unique market niche that addresses a largely untapped market is a great thing to find! Not only have we found one, but we have built a business around this discovery … creating a franchise opportunity that has great appeal and many advantages.
Now…imagine working from home (having more time with your own children) and being the master of your own destiny while building a steadily increasing stream of repeating monthly income!
Well, you don’t have to imagine anymore. That’s EXACTLY what our franchisees do - and MOST of them do this in the enviable position of being the ONLY game in town!
“Why is that?”
you ask. Well, honestly, we’re not quite sure why, but our exhaustive
searches on the internet reveal there are only a handful of businesses
in the whole United States that do what we do…and NONE of them are franchising.
And what is it exactly that our franchisees do? Our franchisees, (many of whom have no music background) contract & manage teams of teachers that provide piano / keyboard lessons right in the convenience of students’ homes.
Do people like this? … Like does not begin to describe it…they LOVE IT! Our
original company owned unit in Baltimore has served over 1,700 students
since 1997 and our franchisees are busy duplicating this same
phenomenon.
How did we learn
about this market? Shortly after I (founder, Scott McGowan), began
teaching piano in students’ homes (1993), I was swamped with requests
for in-home piano lessons. – By 1996, my wife Harlene joined me, but
the requests for in-home lessons has never stopped!
In 1997, we began
training others to provide the same service - but in a year or two our
office was too swamped to handle requests from all of the Baltimore
Metro area. So ultimately, we began franchising our
unique concept in 2002 which helped eliminate the waiting list in
Maryland, and simultaneously provided a means of spreading our unique
concept to other parts of the country.
But isn’t it hard to find teachers to work for you?
Not at all. We have contracted nearly 200 in Baltimore since 1997 and
our franchisees are having great success as well. We will share our
recruiting secrets with you as a part of your training... .
Consider the following:
Families are busier than ever. Convenience makes us the OBVIOUS choice over studios.
Studies prove that children who study piano / keyboard perform better academically,
which means we provide many of the same benefits as tutoring, but go a
step further by nurturing our students’ musicianship as well.
Our
students often continue their study for years as opposed to remedial
tutoring services, which allows our franchisees to more quickly expand their base of customers to bill each month.
By focusing
exclusively on recruiting instructors with a piano background our
customers receive quicker service than those waiting for tutors with
various educational specialties.
With no other
franchise opportunity addressing this unique market, there are NO
worries about a competing business opening right in your exclusive
territory!
As the founders,
we have a true passion for this service and plenty of direct field
experience. This translates into focused support for the music
education aspects of the business, and a Teacher Manual that is issued
to each and every one of your Playtime Instructors, saving you the time
it takes to train your teachers to do it our way.
Unlike
some other home based franchise concepts, ours
allows franchisees to truly experience
the benefits students receive, when
they get to hear the results at their annual
Playtime Piano recitals. (…And these are so
much more fun than traditional recitals, too)!
