Knowledge + Talent + Tenacity + Team = Success!

It's a daunting task to try to build a solid, profitable and sustainable music career, whether its your own or that of your talented child. You need a solid understanding of how the music business works and how to avoid the sharks who are out to take your money and/or your art. It requires entrepreneurial skills and business planning expertise to ensure that you become and remain financially stable. You need insider knowledge of the workings of the music industry to keep you from making costly mistakes. And you need reputable contacts to expedite your journey. 

If you can't fill all of those shoes, but you're ready to 1) learn and 2) put everything you learn into practice, we want to help. Our consulting programs include: 

1. Extensive one-on-one personal mentoring to plan and execute your long-term career path and all of the interim steps necessary to make it happen. The more you crystallize exactly where you're going and how you're going to get there, the better your chances  of succeeding! You can't achieve that in group coaching.
2. Hands-on work on your behalf. Think of it as having a part-time manager - someone who is doing research and making contacts on your behalf. Someone who is in your corner every step of the way, ensuring that every decision you make is the best one for your situation. We also serve as your accountability partner.
3. Weekly personal coaching and training sessions (phone, Skype etc.) to teach you how to build a solid, profitable and sustainable career. 
4. You get access to all of our online training so you can learn the industry ropes and implement your plan when it best fits your schedule.
