Thinking of selling your music school? Or maybe you'd just like to have that option someday?

In this episode, John Kozicki (Michigan Rock School and RockSchoolProprietor.com) speaks with Jeff Homer, founder of Ensemble Performing Arts. Jeff's built a company that runs over 100 music schools, all through acquisitions from independent owners. In the conversation Jeff explains how to value a studio, find a buyer, and walks us through Ensemble’s acquisition process from letter of intent to integration, all while preserving each school's legacy and community ties.

In this episode:

Jeff's vision for Ensemble and how maintaining community ties within each of the schools under the Ensemble umbrella is key to success.
Understanding where most music schools are already great, and how Ensemble "takes the baton" on back-end task like hiring, accounting, taxes, etc.
Marketing and growth strategies that Ensemble uses that any school can apply today.
What the acquisition process and exit planning look like when Ensemble purchases a music or performing arts school.

Jeff also shares practical tips to make your studio attractive to buyers—clean financials, empowered staff, and smarter paid marketing—and outlines what sellers and staff can expect during and after the transition.
