×We’ve had a lot of tax talk on the podcast lately and I know that’s not everyone’s cup of tea. I get it. I promise we’ll keep it to a minimum today, but I do want to let you know about an upcoming webinar that I will be co-presenting with our CPA, Charles! Join us on Thur, February 6 for our Self-Employment Tax Crash Course. You can register for that at musicstudiostartup.com/tax . That’s it! That’s all I’m going to say about taxes. Let’s hear a good ol’, inspiring studio success story. I think a lot of listeners are going to relate to today’s guest. Alison had been teaching for a number of years, had a nice-sized studio, and was beginning to feel the drag of teaching into the evening hours. So she decided to do something about it. She set out to shift her schedule to more daytime hours. She successfully made that shift (with some genius networking strategies!) and the result was… not what she expected! Listen in to hear how Alison made (and continues to make) effective shifts in her studio and what she has learned along the way.

Happy new year! For a lot of studio owners, January represents the beginning of tax season so I’ve got Charles Harris, a CPA, as our guest today to talk about all things self-employment taxes. We’ll cover a bunch of things including the earning thresholds for when you need to earn to start filing taxes and what to do if you did not earn a profit in your business this year (spoiler: it can benefit you to file anyway!). We’ll also talk about what’s different for the 2024 tax year and what we know (and don’t know) about expected changes for the 2025 tax year. Plus, we’ll share an exciting announcement about new services coming to Music Studio Startup this year and a new perk for Hub members!

If you've ever wished you could travel, but have told yourself that you can't take time off or it's too expensive or whatever, this interview will have you rethinking those assumptions. Today, I'm talking to a returning guest about how he has designed his studios, plural, to be able to take extended backpacking trips every year. We talk about budgeting for the trips, how he preps his students and teachers, and how he keeps things on track while he's away. Here's my conversation with Noah.

1 156 - Invitation to Dec. 10 Event + Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) Reporting Requirement 10:23
Today’s episode is more of a public service announcement for studio owners who have businesses that are registered in the US. On January 1, a new reporting requirement from the US Treasury Department went into effect and it might impact you. I’m talking about the Beneficial Ownership Information Reporting rule or BOI Reporting requirement from the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), part of the Corporate Transparency Act. Today I’m going to share what I learned in my research of the ruling. I’m going to go through this in a Q&A format that traces the path I took and the questions that came up for me as I determined whether or not I would be eligible and then what the registration process entailed. Hopefully it’ll help you jumpstart your own research. A full transcript and resources from this episode can be found at MusicStudioStartup.com/episode156 .

Today’s podcast episode is part 2 of a two part conversation with a returning guest. Christopher Maloney was on the podcast last year to talk about founding Practice Warriors, an online practice program aimed at teen and adult students. You can hear that story in Episode 132 . In that conversation, Christopher mentioned that he had formerly owned a multi-teacher music studio, which he sold. That was too big a topic to get into in our last conversation, but I knew I wanted to hear that story, so I’m grateful to Christopher for making the time for another interview. In the first part of the interview we hear the startup story and Christopher’s take on the 5 things he credits for the success of his studio. Teaser: his wife, Christina, has a PR background and you can hear that influence in the out-of-the-box marketing strategies they used to launch the studio. In the second part, which you’ll hear next week, we get into the numbers and money side: we talk about startup costs, how they priced lessons, how they financed the building, and how they eventually sold the studio. You’ll hear us talk a lot about “equity” in this episode, I’ll unpack that a bit in my recap, as well. It’s not something that gets talked about very much in the context of music studios, but I think it’s an important concept for business owners to get familiar with, so we’re going to talk about it.

Today's conversation is one about being a lifelong learner, managing competing priorities and finite time, and aligning a team to work towards a shared vision. Most of us can probably relate to at least some of these things from our roles as teachers and studio owners, but my guest today is neither a music teacher nor a studio owner. Today I’m talking to Bradley Kunda, a musician and Product Owner for the popular music notation app, MuseScore. Being on a software team, Bradley brings a really different perspective to these topics that I think you're going to enjoy and learn a lot from. Here’s my conversation with Bradley: A full transcript and resources from this episode can be found at MusicStudioStartup.com/episode152.

1 150 - Shannah Compton Game on Five Money Tips for Self-Employed Music Teachers [REBROADCAST] 24:31
Today’s episode is a rebroadcast of one of the earliest episodes of Music Studio Startup, but it has stood the test of time. It’s worth noting that at the time of recording, my guest Shannah’s podcast was called “Millennial Money”, but the name has since changed to “Everyone’s Talkin’ Money.” Here’s the episode: If you’re in the first few years of your career, money can be a complicated topic. You may be trying to balance bills and student loan payments while still investing in your business. On top of that, if you’re self-employed, you have to figure it out all on your own! In today’s show, you’ll be introduced to Shannah Compton Game, a Certified Financial Planner and the host of the Millennial Money podcast.

We’re doing a special series on the podcast this summer called Studio Snapshots. Rather than the in-depth, process-oriented interviews you’re used to hearing, these rapid-fire interviews give us a glimpse in a guest’s studio at a moment in time. They’re part reflection, part anticipation of the future, and fully a celebration of where these teachers are today. Today I’m talking to Ivan Kolar.
