TEACHER HUSTLE UNIVERSITY

A powerful creation to launch framework for designing resources teachers need, DIY marketing with purpose, and building your brand, while maintaining balance.

JOIN TEACHER HUSTLE U.

Find Your Why. Honor Your Story. Design Your Future.

Want to create beautiful resources, share your teaching ideas, AND develop a marketing strategy without wasting tons of time and energy? (After all, you have other important things to do like schoolwork, family time, and shopping at Target!)

Follow my simple framework to optimize your Teachers Pay Teachers store by staying hyper-focused on 3 major areas of marketing: Blogging, Pinterest, and Instagram.

Solidify your marketing strategy and put it on autopilot so you can enjoy life while your TpT app cha-chings in the background. (That's the little notification you get one someone buys a product...and it is one of life's most satisfying sounds.)

This framework is for you if:

You know you want to join the thousands of teachers selling teaching resources online to generate a steady monthly income, but you're not sure where to start.
You've started selling your resources, but you're feeling overwhelmed and stuck.
You've heard you should be blogging, podcasting, YouTubing, gaining thousands of followers on Instagram, starting a Facebook page, e-mail marketing...the list goes on and on, but you have no idea where to start.
You can't gain traction with your side hustle because as soon as you put one foot forward, you're not sure where to go next.

This is not for you if:

You're not ready to commit to selling your resources online.
You're not willing to put work into your creation and marketing strategy.
You don't think of selling your resources as a business.

Build Your Brand

Find your "why" and get to know your customer avatar. Set up a plan and schedule that allows for a balance between work, hustle, and life.

Get Technical

I'll walk you step-by-step through design and creation tips and tricks. You'll get all the insider secrets to creating beautiful resources teachers need.

DIY Marketing

Learn about the importance of The Big Three: Blogging, Pinterest, and Instagram. You'll build a powerful social media strategy that fits your personality and schedule.

You need The 3 V's in your business!

We'll go over a lot of formulas and blueprints in The Framework. Here's the first one...The 3 V's!

What are your roadblocks?

If you've thought about creating and selling your teaching resources, you've probably hit a few roadblocks.

Do I have enough time?
Am I "techie" enough?
How will teachers find my resources?
How will I find my place in the massive world of social media?
Will this bring me joy?

This framework isn't just about the technical information. I'll also walk you through the answers to these larger questions by guiding you through a reflection process.

Special pricing and early access to the framework because it's still new.

Meet the Teacher

I'm Alissa, a fifth-grade teacher, longtime TpT creator, small business owner, and social media marketing fan girl. (I like to refer to myself as "multi-passionate".)

I was at the point in my teaching career when I was feeling overwhelmed and uninspired. I had lost the spark for teaching that had once burned bright.

The solution to my problem? It was sitting in my schoolbag the whole time.

Our smartphones have the amazing power to connect us to an entire world of teachers. We can share ideas, resources, support one another, and develop friendships.

I had a moment (sitting in my kitchen in my polka-dot pajamas) where I realized I had a mission. My goal is to unite teachers through the sharing of ideas and resources.

Every teacher has something to offer, and I want to help sort through the tech confusion and help teachers find their place in the online world.

But, Alissa, do you even know what you're talking about when it comes to this?

I'm totally nerdy over SEO, analytics, and marketing in general. I'm the social media manager for our family's local business. Because of that work, several other local businesses have asked me to help with marketing over the years.

I had a realization that all this marketing info wasn't just valuable for small businesses- it's something teachers need too!

So here we are. I can't wait to meet you and guide you on your journey to success, balance, and joy!

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the framework give me?

You'll recieve the powerful Teacher Hustle framework to a successful teacherpreneur business. The framework is essentially FOUR COURSES in one. The stacks are on branding, blogging, Pinterest, and Instagram. Each stack includes purpose, tutorials, content creation tips, and automation ideas.

The framework will be dripped to you every 2 weeks over the next 8 weeks. This means you'll work through the units 2 weeks at a time.

The "Start Right" unit is meant to be completed in one intense session over a weekend or 1-2 weeks. The point is to get your store up and running so you can tackle the marketing and get started!

The icing on the cake is being part of the Teacher Hustle U. Crew. You'll receive tons of support from our community in the Teacher Hustle University Facebook group! Here we'll share our progress, ask questions, and have FUN! Here you'll find like-minded teacherpreneurs... and they'll become YOUR PEOPLE! I can't wait to start building our community.

What does "dripped" content mean?

The framework will be dripped to you every 2 weeks over the next 6 weeks. This means you'll work through the units 2 weeks at a time.

You can work at your own pace, but the course is purposefully spread out to give you time to master each piece of the framework before you move on to the next.

Inside our Facebook community, you'll find others to pace yourself with. You'll have the opportunity to connect with an accountability partner and earn badges for your work. We'll get through the course material together.

How long will it take me to complete the framework?

I am all about learning while you create your strategy. We're going to be effective and productive. Each lesson comes with "homework", and if you complete the assignments, you'll have a functioning store, a blog (up and running!), an automated Pinterest account, and a community of fans on Instagram in 6-8 weeks. BUT, if you want to take your time to master each stack before moving on to the next, you'll have lifetime access to The Framework.

"Alissa's framework is amazing. This isn't the first course I have taken for teacher resources, and the amount of in-depth info she gives is AWESOME. And I'm only on lesson 0.3! I stumbled upon gold when I found Alissa!"

Amelia from @coupleofreeves

"I found out Alissa had a passion for marketing, and as a former merchandising major myself, I knew she was the perfect person to have as a mentor during this process. I'm only a few lessons in, but already the support from the crew and the clear and concise direction of Alissa's framework has been a breath of fresh air as I'm trying to weed through all the noise and information overload."

Brittany

"This is genius! I tried out the TpT Listing Lab strategies and was able to rank #1 in the TpT search over someone with 570 ratings. Thank you, Alissa! So glad I joined the crew."

Laura from @theotbutterfly
Teacher Seller

"Thank you for being so open-minded and helpful with starting up my TpT store! After late nights of designing my units, I was clueless about where to go next. The step-by-step information about how to upload, market, and sell my products has brought in a nice additional income each month. I truly don't feel guilty walking into Target anymore knowing I have some spending money that my "side hustle" brought in! Thank you again for all of your help."
