Ep 366: The Marketing Mistakes I Made, the Organizational Systems That Saved Me, and How to Avoid Burnout Before You Even Begin

Are you a teacher or parent building a microschool or homeschool hybrid? Overwhelmed by all the tasks, struggling to stay organized, and unsure how to market your school effectively? You're not alone — and this episode is for you. 🎯

In this powerful episode of the Summer of Clarity series, I’m opening up about the real marketing mistakes I made in my first three years as a microschool founder — and how poor time management, lack of systems, and organizational overwhelm nearly burned me out.

I’ll walk you through:

• The biggest mistakes new microschool leaders make in marketing and daily operations

• How I fixed my scattered strategy and created repeatable systems

• The exact tools, timelines, and templates I used to grow from 6 to 50+ students

• What not to do when launching your microschool

• How to build your enrollment without sacrificing your sanity

Whether you're still teaching full-time, just launching your school, or trying to scale with confidence, this episode will help you organize your time, clean up your marketing, and step into your role as a confident, capable educational entrepreneur.
