In this episode of Classroom to Business, Kirsty offers invaluable insights into the strategic decision-making process for tutors pondering whether to specialise or diversify their tutoring services.
As she delves into the question, "Should I just specialise or niche down in one subject area for my tutoring business?", listeners are treated to a thorough analysis of the benefits and challenges associated with each approach. Her expertise sheds light on the impact of these decisions on the growth and direction of a tutoring business.
Kirsty outlines the advantages of specialisation (niching down), including gaining expert status, streamlined marketing efforts and resource optimisation; all of these benefits contribute to a more clearly defined business model that can lead to higher efficiency and potentially greater success.
On the flip side, she acknowledges the perceived challenges such as a limited client base and the trade-offs in market reach. In drawing from her experiences and those of her clients, Kirsty strongly advocates for identifying and leveraging one's superpower – an area of expertise or a particular teaching approach that sets them apart.
Specialisation vs diversification is not just a straightforward choice, but requires consideration of factors like market demand, personal passions and long-term objectives. By interweaving potential solutions, such as affiliate agreements and hiring specialised staff, Kirsty provides actionable strategies for overcoming any obstacles to achieving a profitable and satisfying tutoring business.
