In this episode, I’m talking about studio analytics and what the numbers in your piano studio are actually telling you.

This is not a business heavy episode and it is not about turning teaching into spreadsheets. It is about gaining clarity. Most independent music teachers were trained to teach music, not to analyze how their studio functions as a business. That gap often leads to guessing, frustration, or the feeling that something is off even when you love teaching.

I walk through the key areas successful small businesses pay attention to and translate them into piano teacher language. We talk about predictable income, operating costs, student retention patterns, and studio alignment, along with a real example from my own studio that completely changed how I think about growth and sustainability.

If you have ever wondered whether your piano studio is actually profitable, why students leave, what numbers matter most, or how to make confident decisions instead of hoping you are doing things right, this episode will help you start seeing your studio more clearly.
