Review & Referral Scripts
Review & Referral Request Scripts for Music Teachers
For music teachers, word-of-mouth and online reputation are the lifeblood of a full studio. These scripts help you turn student progress and recital success into a steady stream of new enrollments by making the 'ask' natural and professional.
Post-Recital High Note
Send this via text or email 24 hours after a successful student performance or recital.
I am still so proud of how [Student Name] performed at the recital yesterday! Seeing that hard work pay off on the [Instrument] is why I love teaching. If you have a moment, would you mind sharing a quick review of our lessons on Google? It really helps other local families find a teacher who cares about student growth as much as we do.
Tips for this scenario
- -Include a photo of the student with their instrument from the event to make it personal.
- -Provide a direct link to your Google Business profile to reduce friction.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
!Missing prospective student calls during a 1-on-1 lesson, which often leads them to call the next teacher on the list.
!Asking for a review after a student had a frustrating practice week or a poor lesson.
!Forgetting to provide a direct link, forcing parents to search for your business manually.
!Not mentioning your referral program during high-excitement times like the week after a recital.
!Neglecting to respond to existing reviews, which makes your studio look inactive to new parents.
