    • 3 Music Business Myths Busted

      You deserve to have a small business that can pay the bills AND take you out to dinner at the end of the week.

      We get to take your business dreams seriously.

      This is for you if:

      - You're consistently getting “this is the one” songs, that are written and then go nowhere.

      - If you've been in business for some time now and know you're talented in music but don't have money generated yet.

      - If your sales are inconsistent.

      - If you're ready to have the income you want from your business.

      I have two spots left for Production Music Composer Academy.

      See if you're ready to stop "playing it safe" and start having the career you always dreamed of here:

    • 1 Simple Framework to Write Winning Tracks
      • You don't have to create the best epic song ever.
      • You don't even have to create a song at all.
      • You don't have to create a masterpiece
      • you don't have to create a symphony that's like 15 minutes long.
      • The only thing you have to create is a track that has a certain framework and I give you templates for that in the Production Music Academy.

        Applications for PMCA are open on Feb. 18th.

        9. How to get your music on TV without being famous

          • having your music being featured on TV has nothing to do with how well known you are or if your music is the best music out there.
          • I made tens of thousands of dollars with this process without being famous or having any connections
          • Let me show you the process and walk through it together
            1. Research your Dream Publisher
            2. Produce an album (10-12 tracks) with your Dream Publisher in mind
            3. Get the album signed with your DP

            4. Look at how it works for me:

              I started making music for libraries and production music labels when our daughter (our 3rd child) was just born. That was Summer 2017. I started with 0 label connections, 0 tracks in any catalog, and a very small amount of royalties here and there.

              24 months later, my music was distributed and broadcast on TV all over the world. 

              The royalties it earned exceeded my wildest expectations. Now, as of January 2022, my catalog has 1000+ tracks and I make $45,000+ yearly, with 10-15 hours of effort each week. 

              For me, that’s absolutely fascinating.

              Now let’s take a moment to imagine what would be different in your life if you had your music on TV and made this kind of money in your sleep. 

              What possibilities would open up for you? How would you be different? Imagine yourself doing the research, then producing the right kind of music, and finally getting the album signed. Can you see yourself doing this? Just imagining it, it looks pretty simple, right? 

              Reality is different, right?

              But I want you to succeed. That’s why I am going to help you to become a successful Production Music Composer.

            5. From comfort zone to true potential

              Where do you go when you are stuck?

              A dear friend, a loved one?

              • Someone that agrees with you and tells you what you want to hear.
              • Rising up and being prosperous in your business (and life) has nothing to do with luck.

                Even if most people around will tell you this: Oh, they were just lucky, oh they were just in the right place at the right time.

                Sorry, but that's not how it works!

                for example, Hans Zimmer attributes much of his success to being mentored by Stanley

                Are you feeling stuck?

                Need a vision?

                Or help map out a plan

                Then you need a mentor or coach.

              • The What and How

                WANNA BE FRIENDS: 💌 Sign up to my weekly newsletter - http://go.thecomposerclass.com/signup

                • Why do you need to create daily and deliver monthly
                • Tweak and change to figure out what you should be creating

                  • What?
                  • How?
                  • Why?
                  • Simon Sinek’s book “Start with Why”

                    We mostly start with What.

                    What if we would go from the inside out and start with why?


                    WHAT do you do? 

                    These are products they sell or services. 


                    Do you know HOW you do it? These are the things

                    that make you special or set you apart from your competition.


                    Very few of us know WHY you do what you do. 

                    WHY is not about making money. That's a result. WHY is a purpose, cause, or belief. It's the very reason you as a composer exist.

                    • In my business, there have been times, when I had to take on every job or project.
                    • I wasn’t able to choose what I wanted to work or with whom I wanted to work
                    • Simply because my bank account didn’t allow it. I had to work through the night so many times
                    • I had to be always available. My phone went with me everywhere. (Very bad habit)
                      No vacation ever was a real vacation
                      I was stressed out of my mind.
                      I had to chase after the money I was owed, even if it was never enough
                    • Of course, that’s not entirely true. I could have also chosen another job.
                    • But all I ever wanted to do was create music. So much I knew.
                    • That’s where Production Music completely changed the game for me and it also can for youYou can work on your catalog on the side while doing other projects
                    • Say goodbye to 24/7 weeks and days
                      Envision a real vacation, where you don’t need a phone, no laptop has to come with you
                      Because you are not reliant on your client's schedule anymore
                    • That’s what I call Leverage (many people actually call it that)
