A few clients come in through word of mouth, sessions get booked, money gets paid here and there, and before long the business is running — but the systems aren’t. That’s when the cracks start to show.I share why clear cancellation policies, payment systems, and professional boundaries matter if you want a more stable and sustainable tutoring business. I also talk about why missed sessions, late payments, rearrangements and vague expectations can quietly leak money, time and energy out of your business.This is not about being harsh.
