We have been listening to your requests and working hard at adding the most popular ones. We’re excited to release these new features that we know you’ll love. All of these are now live and you can use them in your studio. Take a look!
- Feature: 10 New Studio Website Themes! We’ve had a lot of requests for new themes featuring other instruments, and we have added ten more for you to choose from. We hope you enjoy them! To see the new themes, or change yours, visit Home -> My Studio Website -> Website Layout / Theme.
- Feature: You can now sort photos on your photos page, and change the caption without deleting and re-uploading the photo!
- Feature: Recurring Expenses! You can now create expenses that will automatically create themselves according to the time frame you set. For example, if you have a bill each month, you can set it to be created automatically, saving you on data entry time. (Note: On March 5, if you tried to update an existing event, it may not have updated properly – please check any events updated on this date to make sure they updated.) To use this feature, go to Billing -> My Expenses and Other Income.
- Feature: Larger reconcile notes box! When reconciling events, many teachers said the box was too small. So we have now made it possible for you to expand the size of the box by dragging the bottom edge.
- BugFix: When turning a single event into a repeating event, it would create a duplicate copy of the single event. This has been fixed.
- BugFix: When saving an e-mail template, it will now warn you if you have an improper variable in your list. Improper variables were preventing some e-mails from being sent.
- BugFix: When editing a group event to send reminders or lesson notes, the e-mails weren’t going to everyone in the group. Now they are.
About the Author
Brandon Pearce is a piano teacher, choral director, computer programmer, and entrepreneur from Murray, Utah, and is also the creator of Music Teacher's Helper.
As his teaching studio grew, he found it increasingly difficult to keep track of how much each student owed. Having recently received a B.S. in Computer Science from Weber State University, he decided to write a web-based computer program to manage billing and scheduling in his studio. Realizing that he wasn't alone in his studio management frustrations, he soon made the service available to other teachers. And they loved it! Since 2003, several additional programmers, and thousands of teachers from around the world have participated in creating the world-class studio management software you know today as Music Teacher's Helper.
Brandon currently spends his time managing and improving Music Teacher's Helper, traveling with his family, and writing hymn arrangements for piano. He is also the assistant director of the Oratorio Society of Utah, a 90+ year old choral organization that performs Handle's Messiah each year, as well as other choral masterworks.
