Action-Oriented Mastermind for Growth Minded Music School Owners

The Founder’s Forum is a 7 month mastermind that provides you with focused monthly themes, live in-person events, accountability, expert guidance, and a supportive community to help you scale your music school toward 7 figures, increase profitability, and master true CEO leadership — without overwhelm.

"The Forum didn’t just give us ideas—it gave us the push and the steps we needed to actually make things happen."
- Annie & John, Potomac Music

Who it's for

The Founder’s Forum is designed for music school owners who have an established multi-teacher school and are serious about growing to 7 figures and beyond. This mastermind is for you if you’re facing challenges such as:

  • Overcoming operational overwhelm: Struggling to streamline your day-to-day operations and build a team you can trust.
  • Achieving financial fluency: Struggling to confidently interpret profit and loss statements, allocate budgets, and make data-driven financial decisions for long-term success.
  • Transitioning to CEO-level leadership: Developing your core leadership team, inspiring them, and entrusting THEM with the mission of reaching or surpassing your long-term goals.
  • Mastering delegation and accountability: Finding it difficult to delegate key responsibilities and hold your team accountable without micromanaging.
  • Developing a cohesive student journey: Lacking a clear “roadmap” for your programs that takes students from beginner to advanced and ensures retention for 7 - 10 years.
  • Maintaining marketing consistency: Marketing and selling programs like summer camps, rock bands, and group lessons is an ongoing struggle, leaving you frustrated. Empowering your team to understand your marketing and sales goals and take responsibility for consistently putting high-quality marketing out into the world.
  • Finding like-minded peers: Feeling like the most experienced person in the room, without access to peers who truly understand the unique challenges of owning a school of your size.

“Having my team member in the Forum felt like gaining a true partner. The operations content and real-life examples helped us simplify, focus, and finally get our systems in order. Every session delivered practical takeaways we could use right away—no fluff, just real results.”

“The variety of formats—workshops, Q&As, and group sessions—meant I always got exactly what I needed, whether it was inspiration, information, or practical next steps. Founder's Forum gave me the accountability and structure I needed to actually follow through on my goals. I finally feel like I’m moving forward, not just spinning my wheels.”

The deep dive into the financials was huge, and the systems and processes were huge for me. I think that is definitely a strength of the Forum, for sure.

How it works

The Founder’s Forum gives you everything you need to transform your music school in a focused 7 month container.

Monthly Call Rhythm

(Repeats each month except during live retreat months)

  • Week 1 – System Walkthrough. Live facilitation of that month’s core system with examples, templates, and time to implement on the call.
  • Week 2 – Builder’s Room. Optional coworking + pod time for working through your specific projects with peer support.
  • Week 3 – Strategic Debug. Targeted coaching focused on metrics, wins, and stuck points.
  • Week 4 – Signal Call. Dashboard review + public share-outs + set up for the next month.

Month-by-Month Curriculum

Each month focuses on one major pillar of growth, including:

  • Month 1: Time Mastery, Systems, and Delegation — freeing up 2–6 hours a week so you can work on your school instead of in it.
  • Month 2: Strategic Vision & Forecasting — creating your annual plan, budget, and dashboard.
  • Month 3: Financial Fluency & Profit Margin — tracking cost of labor, profitability, and cash flow.
  • Month 4: Marketing & Enrollment Growth — building a 90-day marketing flywheel and sales story.
  • Month 5: Team Infrastructure & Delegation — org chart, pay tiers, hiring funnel.
  • Month 6: Operations, HR, and Retention Systems — SOPs, payroll, and creating a culture that sticks.

Key Features

  • Live In-Person Retreat. A single, high-impact event in Brooklyn designed to solidify your annual plan and build deep relationships with your peers.
  • Custom Onboarding. We match you to a 90-day focus track (Marketing, Hiring, Systems) so you get traction quickly.
  • Monthly Dashboard Review. Tracking your most important metrics: take-home pay, profit margin, hours worked, team drama score, and more.
  • Small-Group Pods. Intimate peer groups for accountability and problem-solving.
  • Wildcard Coaching Calls. Extra support when you need it most.
  • Curated Resource Library. Access to templates, SOPs, and tools that match each month’s focus — no overwhelming library to sift through.
