Why chase fame when you can build a 7-figure empire from your garage? Zach even shreds live on his custom Ernie Ball, proving talent meets strategy. From flipping $100 ad spend into full-time freedom to expanding during Covid to 250 students, Zach exposes the blueprint: reinvest ruthlessly, pay teachers well, and dominate underserved suburban markets. Action takeaways: leverage convenience over competition, charge premium to avoid burnout, and scale multiple locations. Music isn't just notes—it's a scalable empire. Whether you're a musician, entrepreneur, or just hate leaving money on the table—this conversation is your wake-up call to build real wealth in an overlooked industry. |
