The most important part about running your own business is keeping your life and work separate.

A strong work/life balance ultamitaely leads to a successful, healthy, and structured life and business.

Today we're going through all of the necessary steps that you need to take as EDM producers to perfect your work/life balance.

What does a healthy work/life balance mean for you? Well, it means more time you get to spend with family, friends, and yourself. Nothing makes running a business more stressful than when all of those things aren't aligned.

When you negate your friends and family, they become frustrated with you. The world gets lonely, and you get depressed.

Today, we're talking CRM's (Customer Relationship Management). CRM's are going to be the key component when it comes to your success.

Imagine having something like "smart" e-mail service. That's exactly what a CRM is. Track when e-mails you send are opened, how many times their clicked, setup tasks/follow-ups, deal pipelines, and everything in between!

As a producer, this can be vital for you to see if record labels are checking your e-mails, what tracks you've sent to e-mails, and keeping track of every conversation you've had with them.

Not just record labels either, collaborations with other producers, promo e-mails to other producers, talking to promoters for booking, setting up tours etc.

CRM's are your introduction into the business world for adults.

When I first learned about ghost production, I was so offended at the fact that people would hire someone else to write their music. However, it wasn't until years later that I realized why a lot of bigger producers have ghost producers.

As a producer trying to make it in the game, this gives you a massive opportunity. If you're able to write high quality tracks within 10 hours you could start selling tracks for upwards of $700/piece. That's $70/hr for 1 single track!

Sell 4 of those a month, and you're making a great living just from production!

In this episode, I sit down Alex Larichev, from https://edm-ghost-production.com. Learn the ins and outs of ghost production and how you can use it as a tool to start making you money!
