#1 - The Most Important 15 Minutes of Your Day

Do you have 15 minutes to spare? If you want to spend more time doing something for your music career and less time waiting for opportunities to arrive, then you'll want to subscribe to this podcast. This isn't the usual weekly guest interviews that focus on the backgrounds or set of lucky circumstances of other artists. This is not a collection of long winded, general ideas about the music industry. With Music Business Hacks, I focus on inspiration, information, and application. Every episode breaks down something specific about advancing your career: booking, networking, sponsorship, crowdfunding, improving rehearsals, etc. and it is paired up with 1-3 specific actions that you can take that day for improvement. Think of it as your recipe book for music business success: everyday, you can cook up a new concept by spending 15 minutes of dedicated, focused time. At the end of the week, you'll get a deep dive interview with a guest to explore other concepts and perspectives, then get a weekly recap. This is a daily podcast - if I am asking you to commit 15 minutes a day, I'm going to record/edit/publish everyday too. I hope you'll consider subscribing and leaving us a review. If you want the book, you can order it from Amazon here.
