Most unsigned and independent musicians know that they need help to achieve their goals, but often they don’t know where to start. Every independent musician has there own goals and challenges, but here are some examples of what we can do for you:
SONGWRITERS
I’ll listen to your songs and work with you to ensure they’re the best they can be
I’ll tell you what music publishers are looking for and who the best ones are to approach: then I’ll give you their contact details
I’ll explain the different ways you can place your songs in the highly lucrative Film & TV market, and how best to protect your copyright and income
BANDS
Should you focus on labels, publishers, management, Film & TV ? I’ll explain what’s best for you, then give you their contact details
Are your songs suitable for re-recording by other signed artists ? I’ll give you my advice and explain how it can benefit your bands career
COMPOSERS
I’ll listen to your best tracks and tell you what’s good and what’s bad. Then I’ll help you fix what’s bad !
I’ll explain the differences between Production Music Libraries, Music Publishers, Sync agencies, etc.
I’ll tell you who the best people are for you and your career, and how you contact them
ENTREPRENEURS
I also have almost 10 years experience of running a Music Publishing and Record Company so can advise on every aspect, from planning to launch and then day-to-day activities. For example, physical & digital distribution, overseas sub-publishers, overseas licensing, PRO’s (BMI, ASCAP, etc.) and many other issues.
I work in one of two ways: either an ongoing monthly coaching fee of $199 per month, minimum 3 months, or a one-off project fee. The latter requires us to outline exactly what your ideal outcome is and where you need help, and then only deal with that, whereas the former allows us to cover anything and everything that comes up.
Coaching is usually a combination of topics that I feel you need to address (such as What are your Goals, Who do you want to work with, How are you going to market yourself) and then topics that you want my help and advice on (such as Finding a Manager or Publisher, Needing Contact details for specific companies, etc.). Consultations are by email and phone.
I don’t take a percentage or share in your copyright. By simply charging for my time I can give the best advice possible, leaving us both to concentrate on achieving your goals.
