Overview

Musicologie is a private music lesson franchise that offers engaging, in-person and virtual lessons for all ages and skill levels. Founded in 2014 and franchising since 2024, Musicologie has developed a scalable, membership-based model designed to provide consistent, recurring revenue. With a focus on personalized, one-on-one instruction, Musicologie caters to students from infancy through adulthood, making it a recession-resistant business in the $800 million private music instruction industry.

Franchise owners operate brick-and-mortar studios ranging from 1,200 to 1,900 square feet, featuring multiple lesson rooms, a group activity space, and a welcoming environment for families. The model allows for either an owner-operator or executive-run structure, with a full-time Community Manager overseeing daily operations and teacher recruitment. With robust pre-sale membership strategies, proprietary scheduling software, and minimal staffing requirements, Musicologie offers a turnkey opportunity for franchisees looking to enter the education and child enrichment space.

This franchise is ideal for individuals passionate about community engagement, business development, and education. No musical background is required—successful owners are relationship-driven, customer-focused, and eager to build a thriving local business.
