Let’s start by saying that those who need this book the most are the most likely not to realize how much they need it. Music Business Tactics provides information that most people spend a lifetime learning. Professional musician and author Chase Sanborn says: “It won’t take you long to read this book, but it took me more than thirty years to write it.”
Music Business Tactics is not so much about the music business, but about the business of being a musician. It outlines the qualities that make a successful musician, provides strategies for managing your time, money and business relationships, and presents an 8-point plan for artistic and financial success. The topics discussed here are every bit as important as your musical ability when it comes to making a living in this business. If you are an aspiring musician (or you know one) this book may just be the best investment you ever make in your career.
