It is a journey.
You can make it a race and that's ok.
If considered strictly a business it becomes an investment that has to be looked at
for the kind of return you want.
More work, marketing, advertising, money, training...... the more students and return.
Your choice as to what you make of your plan.
Don't get me wrong I am not trying to be negative. I just don't see this as a
quit your day job type of business. BUT, as they say that is my opinion.
I think it could be I just don't see many instructors treating it as such.
That has nothing to do with their professionalism .I respect all instructors until they give me reason otherwise and I don’t mean by disagreeing with me.
Even by DPS statements the average number of students for all instructors in 2009
was under a whopping 10 students per year.
I really think most of us got into this because we like the promotion of concealed carry and enjoy dealing with people. We go about it in different ways and levels but I think
in one form or another is the reason.
This forum allows you to see instructors the way students have seen them and
what students would like to see in the class. You can tweak your class as you go and it will get better and smoother.
You are on the road and your concern now tells me you will be a good instructor.
Lots of help here.
Good Luck.
