I think performing is a wonderful way of getting new students! My studio of students perform for a downtown event called, "Art After Dark." They have it every Month from May-Dec. It has been one of the best advertising tools I've used. I also ask my student's parents if I can post their performance on social media. They love it and share the videos. This often brings even more students in to the studio. I will say that I offer 1 time consults for a fee. I didn't do this at first. However, when I started filling up I felt I could risk losing a student if their parent didn't want to pay to take up 30 mins. of our time. Good luck! Very innovative and resourceful ideas!
