What is Spring Fling?
This is an event for passionate teacher business owners who are using their business to make an impact.
If you're looking to take a step forward in your business, then you're in the right place!
Spring Fling is an annual free online conference for teacher business owners who are just getting started, or have been running their business for a long time, and everyone in between.
Tune in to connect with some of the best leaders in the teacher business industry and find clarity about how to take your next steps in starting, building, or growing your business.
Let me ask you...
- Have you been itching to learn a new skill for your business (like using ChatGPT for your marketing or creating video previews for your store or trying Facebook ads?)
- Are you wondering how other business owners seem to get it all done - the marketing, the product creation, the list building, the accounting, and more?
- Are you looking to hear from other leaders and business owners who are showing up online and growing and scaling their businesses?
- Do you want to make new connections with other teacher business owners?
- Are you ready to experience a one-of-a-kind event that will inspire you to take action and build your confidence in your own skills?
That's exactly what Spring Fling is about!

There is room for you here.
Spring Fling started as a small idea in December 2019 - we dreamed of creating an online space to bring teacher business owners together to learn from each other.
In the years since then, our small idea has grown into one of the biggest online events of the year. Through all our conferences, we've stuck with the same foundation:
Spring Fling is free for the weekend. We want to make a way for as many people as possible to attend the event and keeping it free for one weekend is an important part of this.
Relationships and value come first. It's really important to us that our attendees leave the event without feeling like the sessions they attended were just sneaky sales pitches. We carefully select presenters who believe in our mission.
There's always more to learn. No matter how long you've been in business, there are always new things to learn. We select sessions on a wide variety of topics so teachers with varying amounts of experience can find sessions that meet their needs and interests.
Upgrade for even more goodness
Spring Fling will be free for all attendees during March 25-27, but you can also upgrade to an All-Access Pass to extend your access to the sessions for one year and to unlock an exclusive bonus library.

There are so many different parts of starting and maintaining your own business or brand. Spring Fling is the place for you to learn from other people who have been and still are in the same situation you're in - trying to figure out how to connect in meaningful ways with teachers online and create impactful products that will make a difference for teachers and students everywhere.
Not sure if this is for you?
If you:
- sell resources for teachers on Teachers Pay Teachers, Etsy, your website, or another online location
- design fonts, clipart, or product templates
- coach or mentor teachers
- offer VA services for teacher business owners
- are a current or former teacher looking to start or grow your online business
And you:
- are passionate about building and a growing a business that helps teachers
- want help mapping out next steps for your business
- are looking to learn new skills and build better systems to help your business work for you
then this is the place for you.
It's time to connect with other teachers running online businesses and walk away with your own plans for the future.
All of the presenters at this Spring Fling conference are teachers and business owners who will be talking about their own experiences with things like using Instagram effectively, getting started on TPT, designing images that captivate your audience, avoiding burnout while still getting things done, selling on your own website, offering new services to your audience, and more.
