I chose not to participate in this program.

All I can advise is watch out. As someone who has created a successful career in various aspects of the music industry, there is no way in the world that I would ever encourage anyone who teaches music to perhaps become rich through their coaching at the cost of over $10,000. The advertising suggests that a music teacher can reach a 6 or even 7 figure income by teaching music and gain students who participate in group sessions at the students cost of over $4000? I am sure they must have small print disclaimers somewhere in order to avoid hearing from the FTC. As part of their advertising to further lure you in to a Zoom meeting, they might share some first names of participants who have significantly increased their net-worth by enrolling themselves as music educators in this unique program. The marketing strategy is called "Mastermind". You can look it up. It is utilized by several online educational marketing companies similar to this one. Rather than spell it out "School", They spell it "Skool" or something similar.Perhaps there have been a few verifiable successes, but it is difficult to make a fair assessment with the information they provide and what I was able to learn on my own. During the zoom meeting, they only provide first names of people supposedly in the program who they tell you are making a lot of money, no contact phone numbers or emails as they do not divulge such information. (must be very secret I guess). Only first names? Really now. Heck, if their enrolled music teachers are making so much money, have such an amazing reputation though the success of students who spend thousands of dollars to participate in their group sessions, you'd think the instructor's names would be all over the Internet and there would be a line of students looking to accomplish their hopes of greatly improving their musicianship and skill by spending over 4K to join these group sessions. I can not of course tell you what to do with your money. All I can do is provide advice that might save you some. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that on the last Zoom meeting I had with a Paul the Trombonist recruiter which was a disaster, the guy thought that he had disconnected at the end of the call but he didn't and he talked to I guess his recruitment coach who unbeknown to me, was listening in and said some things regarding "folks like him" (meaning me), who (for darn good reasons), share similar skepticism. I had rightfully asked the recruiter if he was on a commission basis and he said that "Paul takes good care of me". The guy was obviously on commission and the woman he continued talking to after he thought we disconnected was providing him advice as to handling recruitment calls and said some negative things about "our types". Really now!. I heard it all! Shame on them. Instead of spending over 10 grand of your hard earned cash with this program, (I would use another descriptive word but won't), invest a whole lot less by investing in yourself through your own internet marketing, advertising and branding. If you are indeed a true educator and sincerely committed to making a difference in the lives of others through the transfer of knowledge and experience, then you are not doing it to become rich. A decent living? Sure. But a millionaire or close to it? There are several entrepreneurs who take advantage of people's desire to learn, succeed and generate great wealth through their magical formula and you can't blame them. Perhaps they themselves are gaining significant wealth by doing so and if it works, and their client base agrees, then more power to them. I am as you should be, very skeptical. Your money in my opinion, is better spent on something else. Take care and go ahead and make some music! Additional info.. Just added. I signed up for another Zoom call by a guy who claimed to have the founder of Senora Guitar enroll in his online coaching class and that's is how Senora Guitar started, from one of these "Mastermind" courses. He stated that Senora Guitars is a 6M/ yr business and touted his own music instructor course as the key to their success. These online coaching courses are crawling out of the woodwork all with the identical game plan and price tag. Like they all graduated the same class on the same day and went out to employ what they learned. What a racket! STAY AWAY You do not need to enroll in any of these "Skools" to become an accomplished musician! Truly!
