In 1997, Tim decided to offer these private workgroups to a select amount of independent artists he met personally around the country at his free workshops. The word of mouth spread like wildfire through the music industry. While some independent artists. musicians, songwriters, managers and even record company executives jumped at the opportunity, others were not able to attend due to the limited size of the sessions or their inability to fly across the country to get there.
Now from the overwhelming requests of artist and musicians throughout the country and internationally, Tim has taken the time to record one of the most comprehensive sessions. This 3 1/2 hour workshop also covers key points like; understanding how to do your own market research to creating a proper artist profile instead of incorrectly sending out press kits to the media and club bookers. How to develop your own strategic marketing plan, putting it into action by capturing commercial radio airplay and distribution into major record stores. Understanding how to get articles in the press instead of just record reviews and even the secrets of how to sell more CDs at your shows then ever before. Plus how to move your group or shows to larger venues and get paid what you want!
