I started my own business called StudySmart Academy, I teach students how to study as their individual brains prefer according to the Assessment they would have taken. It is for any age starting from 10 years up.My main market is 14-18 years of age. Schools are seeming impossible to get into as there are so many people constantly approaching them with something. How else do I reach these ages if schools wont let me in? Most methods of marketing&advertising isn’t targeting my market. In my town people dont want to help as they wan all the students to themselves even though I am the only person doing what I do-so no affiliations yet. Ive tried newspaper, flyers, banners, competitions. Thing is that when I reach parents they purchase the program & the students grades improve, so my problem is definitely reaching my Target Market when schools arnt letting me in. I feel I have done all possible but need some opinions.

Jay’s Answer: Word of Mouth is the key. If your program works, then you want to have parents recommend your services to other parents.

Sponsor a child’s sports team, getting your logo on their jerseys.

Finally, you’re key benefit isn’t making learning fun — it’s getting students better scores. That’s why parents would enroll in your program.
