Do you dream of becoming a paid music artist? One that is recording, playing concerts, and getting paid to do it? Or have you started within the last few years and you're unsure of how to do the business, marketing, or distribution sides of being a musician?

In this three-part class, I will take you step by step through how to start as a working musician. I will be sharing with you everything I wish someone had told me when I started. You will save tons of time and research by taking this class!

I've been an actively-gigging musician for about 15 years, but within the last few years I have become a serious, working independent musician. Over the past 4 years I have taken numerous workshops from experts on various aspects of developing into a music artist. This three-part class is a clear and concise summary on exactly what you need to know to do what I've done.

Part 1: Business Aspects will cover why you should treat your music like a business, how to do so, how to get started, what to track, how to set up your music budget, and what you need to know about taxes.

Part 2: Branding, Web Presence, Gigs, I will cover how to brand yourself as an artist, making yourself more memorable to those who see you. I will also cover what type of web presence you should have and how to start gigging.

Part 3: Getting your Music Heard, I will share the steps on getting your music heard, from recording to distribution to promotion. I will also share about ways to begin "monetizing" your music so you have more income at your disposal.
