How Networking Can Harm Your Music Career

In this episode, Mark starts by talking about how he fell into the music business. He started as an intern in the publicity department at World Records and was then hired as National Director of Radio Promotions. Once hired, he wasn’t planning on staying at World Records for more than 5-6 months, but the experience truly changed his life. This position gave him some amazing opportunities, one of which was implementing a campaign for Amy Grant’s multi-platinum album, Unguarded.
