Welcome to The Education Business Podcast with Claire Riley21 May 202100:07:20

This podcast will help you start grow and scale your education business.

I'm Claire Riley, a teacher turned entrepreneur with over 8 years experience in the education business space and CEO of education resource company, Classroom Secrets.

Since founding Classroom Secrets in 2013, I've scaled the company to bring in millions in revenue each year and I want to help you to do the same.

I'm on a mission to see my colleagues in education succeed in business, whether that's leaving the classroom to set up a new venture or making an existing business work harder for you.

In this podcast I'll be honest with you about what it really takes to scale a business in the education sector as well as my mindset barriers, that I had when I started and what really goes through my mind 8 years on.

I'll be sharing the juicy bits, the exciting bits and the dreadful bits of my journey so you can be informed when it comes to starting, growing and scaling your own business in education.
