Why you should build a team

The music industry is a business, and to make it big, you need to treat it as such. Having reliable professionals around enables you to do more with your time, including making the music you love. In this book, we'll show you how the right people can help with everything from booking the right gigs to marketing your music in the best way.

What you can do by yourself and when to start building a team

Being a successful musician takes more than just talent. It also takes hard work, dedication, and the willingness to constantly strive for improvement. We've already said that one of the most important factors in musical success is building a strong team of collaborators. But what if you're just starting out?

Going it alone (at least at the start) is a necessity for most artists. In this book, we'll reiterate what you should focus on prior to building your team, and when you should make the call to expand.

Building a management team

Learn how the individuals responsible for planning and strategizing for the future, and your day-to-day affairs, are essential to your success. These include key figures such as managers, attorneys, bookkeepers, and accountants.

Building a growth team

Your growth team can help you reach a wider audience and expand your opportunities tenfold, using their networks and contacts to help you book shows and secure media coverage. This team includes booking agents, marketing personnel, publicists, and more.

Building a creative team

The creative team is at the helm to help you perfect your craft and all of the supporting mediums that go along with it. These roles can be very diverse and include producers, sound engineers, videographers, designers, and much more.

How to manage relationships

Any music team is only as strong as the relationships among its members. Being able to manage those relationships effectively is key to long-lasting, healthy partnerships. In this book, we cover how to define expectations with your team, the musts of communications, and how to nurture your relationships beyond business.

If you're looking to make sure you can build a team that lasts, look no further.
