The Cure: When money gets tight for musicians & artist, check this out
Sent Saturday, November 22, 2008View as plaintext
This email is a bit personal and it is going out to my
entire
list, so I am writing it to everyone...Including You
because everyone on my list needs to read this,
yes all 55,983 of you...!
I'm actually calling it the "Cure" for when money gets
tight for people like "Us"... People who are in the
music business in one way or another.
Over the last couple of weeks, I have listened to several
of you tell me how difficult it has been lately for you
to sell your music, get gigs and just make even a little bit
of money and with the economy being the way it is, it
has yet to get better and some of you doubt that it will...
I mean think about it, if it was hard for you to sell your
music and get paid to do what you love BEFORE the
economy went bust, it has to be even more difficult now
right?
Well the answer is both YES and NO
When things get "slow", some people naturally accept
it as a way of life, allowing their lives to be turned upside
down, their relationships to be effected and "Money Problems"
to totally ruin things for them.
But it does not have to be that way, instead when things
get "slow" the smartest thing for YOU to do is turn up the
heat, look for more people who "Love" your
type of music, get yourself in front of them and expand
your horizons. (Just getting yourself in front of more
people will do more for you then almost anything else,
it is that simple, yet underestimated by so many, including
you probably)
Doing this can not only increase the amount of money you
bring in, but it will also dramatically increase the amount
of exposure and head nods that you'll get.... And eventually
open up more doors for you in this business...
(Remember it's all about who you know in the music biz
and the amount of genuine effort that you put in)
So with that said, over the last couple of days I have put
a lot of thought into how I can help you to do just what
I just suggested to you... and that is, get yourself in front
of more people.
I came up with two resources... Now keep in mind and I'm
being totally upfront with you here, there is no such thing
as a "Magic Bullet". There is no product, person or thing
that will instantly make you a super star, that is primarily
up to YOU! And if anyone tells you anything different,
run like hell because they are flat out lying!
But if you take each of the resources that I am going to give
you here and apply a fair amount of "Effort" and follow
the instructions in each one to the "T" you'll be in a much
better position then your competition career wise
and financially.
As most people in the industry will tell you, the bulk
of all income made in the music business comes from
performing, this goes for both new artist like you
and established, well known artist like Brittany Spears,
Jay Z, and others... The money is in performing.
The second way to increase the amount of awareness,
exposure and music sales that you get is to simply...
Go Where Your Audience Is and right now, although
a lot of musicians and artist are underestimating it's
potential that place is still "MySpace".
In fact, MySpace is really one of the best places for
you to have an online presence at right now, because
there are not as many *kids* on it as there used to be.
Because of the declining number of children being on
Myspace now and the "increase" of real music lovers
taking the site back, right now is the best time for you
to focus your efforts on MySpace...
The folks over at MySpace have made major deals with
some of the top record labels and lots of those labels
have regular departments that do nothing but scout
MySpace for new independent artist and labels to work with.
So again, I say MySpace is one of the best places for you
to focus your online efforts. But it has to be done right,
meaning the correct way. Just having a MySpace
page is not going to cut it, but just knowing how to
do a little more with your MySpace page will put you
over the edge and give you more online visibility,
which translates into more sales of your music.
Take a look at volume 2 of my best-selling guide the
"MySpace Magic Manuscript" and you'll see what I mean. http://myspacemagicmanuscript.com/
In it you'll learn:
* Advance MySpace tactics.
* How to separate you page from the other in your genre,
allowing you to get the most "Attention" (and music plays,
friends, music sales and exposure)
* The key elements of a successful myspace page and
so much more....
I stand behind the information contained in both the
"MySpace Magic
Manuscript" and the
"Gigging forDollars" guides so much so that I will
give you
a 1 year guarantee on both.
Get them and use them and if anytime within the
next year you feel that they don't live up to what I say
they do, let me know and you'll get every single
penny back.
I know... A year seems like a lot of time to offer on a
guarantee, but I just want you to be totally satisfied with
everything you get from me.
I can offer a 1 year guarantee and be this confident about
these guides because I have seen how both have helped
others just like you and have revived even the deadest
of music careers.
Remember there are no "Magic Bullets" for success,
but both of these items are true treasures that will help
you out greatly if you make an effort to apply the information
contained in them.
That's it, enjoy your weekend and I'll talk to you soon

P.S. Both of these items are really inexpensive, so either
you can be smart this weekend and put a couple of dollars
into something that you will see a return and benefit from
or you can spend that same money doing something else
like going to the movies, dinner or just goofing off...
Which one seems like the smarter choice?

Do Something DIFFERENT and You Might Get Different
Results :)"
