Music Business Coaching and Consulting
Get Music Business Coaching
I can be hired on an hourly basis to help grow your business. My clients have ranged from enormous Venture Capital companies looking to build out music related businesses to young musicians fresh out of college who want to grow their fan base. I combine digital marketing techniques learned by marketing this and other websites with my record company background and advise people on how to develop their following.
How it Works:
After a session is purchased I send out a detailed questionnaire so I can get as much background on you as possible. After I have reviewed your responses and thoroughly researched your online presence we connect by phone and go over your needs. I can provide you with tangible plans of action to accomplish your music related goals.
What does a Coaching Session usually Cover?
It covers a wide range of topics that vary based on your individual needs. Coaching is usually related to helping you solve the problems that arise when growing your business. I can advise you on how to achieve growth with the resources you currently have at your disposal and how best to approach the many gatekeepers you will encounter along the way.

I read your “how to make it in the music industry” article and it inspired me so much!! I’ve never been so motivated and moved by any advice that one gave me until I seemed help online for a little advice to start me off to my career. I just want to say that I appreciate the little advice you gave when I know that there is so much more you have to offer its just, I’m not financially stable to hire you just yet in what I want to pursue which is my music career. But when I am, I will make sure to give you a call and chat a little more on what you have to offer. Thank you so much!!!
