STRUGGLING TO MAKE ANY SORT OF MONEY FROM YOUR MUSIC? CAN'T GET
PEOPLE TO LISTEN TO YOUR SONGS, EVEN WHEN YOU GIVE THEM OUT FOR FREE?
WANT A FAST TRACK METHOD TO NAVIGATE THIS BRUTAL MUSIC INDUSTRY?

No matter what genre of music you make, we've all been there before.


The truth is, many of us get into this industry for the love of
music. We make it because we enjoy it, and we want other people to
enjoy our songs as well.

For many however, it eventually comes to the point when you want to
start making money from your music. You still love it as much as ever,
but why not aim higher and get paid for your art?

The only problem with this, is many musicians don't know how to go
about doing this. Yes we've been told we need to get our music into
shops, but how do you actually go about doing that? And once it's in
there, how do we get people to buy it? These and many other questions
plague musicians worldwide, and stop them from getting their music out
there as much as it should be.

In order to be successful in the music industry, there are certain
things you need to do. Most of these things aren't particularly
difficult, but without knowing that they need to be done or how to do
them correctly, most of the time they are simply overlooked. This is
costing many people a lot of time and money, neither of which you'd
want to be giving away I'm sure.

THE PROBLEM

The music industry has changed. You can no longer simply have a
musical talent, send a demo into a record label, and expect them to
propel you to fame and fortune. Record labels now want PROOF that you
can sell units and draw in crowds, and they expect you to do those
things by yourself.

If you've been doing music for any amount of time, you'll already
know that this is easier said then done. With the internet connecting
people to each other and your music (For free may I add), it's getting
harder and harder for people to make sales of their songs. In fact,
with so much competition online, many even find it hard to get people
to listen to their free music samples!

As for drawing in crowds, it's not as easy as telling your friends on
Facebook about a gig you're doing and them turning up. Yes they may
click 'attending' as it's quick and easy to do, but the majority of
those people probably won't turn up.

What a uphill struggle right?

While talented, many musicians aren't sure how to go about selling
units or drawing in crowds. You can't simply put a 'buy now' button on
your website and expect to become rich over night, there's a lot more
conditions that need to be met before people are ready to connect with
you and part with their money.

Added to the fact that there are a lot of 'gurus' giving out bad
information in terms of progressing your music career (“Add people
on Facebook / Twitter all day and you will gain fans!”, “Give away
tons of music for free and you will create a name for yourself” etc)
it really isn't easy to know how you can go about getting yourself on
the right track.

THE SOLUTION

This is where THE IMA MUSIC BUSINESS ACADEMY comes in. Unlike many of
the people offering advice to musicians, we actually understand what
it takes to succeed as an independent musician. We've been through it
all, and have used that knowledge to both sell units and help others
do the same.

Learning the music business is often a trial and error process, and
can take years to achieve without the right guidance. Fortunately for
you however, we are willing to be that guidance. Why go through years
of blindly learning when you can have all the information you need at
your finger tips?

We've mapped out everything you need to know in the IMA Music
Business Academy. Literally years of experience has gone into this
course, allowing your to fast track your music career and get things
right the first time around!

TESTIMONIAL

“Nowhere else breaks down what you need to do in the music business
like this, a must have for any musician sick of travelling in
circles!”

LUCY COLE, LONDON.

TESTIMONIAL

“I was lucky enough to be one of the initial lesson testers. Since
joining the academy I have started to build on my online presence.
I've got my first few genuine fans, and have even sold a few copies of
my first single. These are real people I've never met before rather

looking forward to the rest of the lessons and building on what I have
already learnt.”

WHO THIS MUSIC BUSINESS COURSE IS FOR

* ANYONE WHO WANTS TO FURTHER THEIR MUSIC CAREER WITHOUT THE HELP OF
A RECORD LABEL.

* ANYONE WHO WANTS TO EVENTUALLY SIGN A RECORD DEAL.
Even if your main aim is to sign a record deal, this course can help
you. Record labels are no longer really signing 'unproven' musicians,
they want to know you can sell units and draw in fans. This course
will show you how to do both of these things and more.
* ANYONE WANTING TO LEARN THE MUSIC BUSINESS.
Want to know what makes people buy music? Or maybe even how to use
the 80/20 rule to make the most of your time? Then this course is for
you.
* ANYONE WHO WANTS TO SAVE TIME AND MONEY.
We give you years of experience, meaning you can learn the best ways
to do things right the first time around. If you want to skip the
trial error stage and want to do things effectively straight away,
this course is for you!
* ANYONE WHO WANTS MAPPED OUT STEPS OF WHAT TO DO.
In the IMA Music Business Academy, we map out a strategy you can
follow to get your music out there. Following this strategy is
optional and you will pick up good business practices either way, but
can be very useful if done right.

WHO THIS ONLINE COURSE IS NOT FOR

While The IMA Music Business Academy is a very complete course that
can help a lot of people wanting to progress their music career, it's
not for everyone. If you fit into any of the below categories, then it
may not be for you:

* MUSICIANS WHO ARE LOOKING TO IMPROVE THEIR VOCAL ABILITY OR
INSTRUMENT PLAYING SKILLS.
This is a course designed to teach the business side of the music
industry, not how to become a better musician.
* MUSICIANS WITH A LACK OF TALENT.
While there is a lot of useful knowledge inside this program, it's
not a magic formula. We will help you get in front of more people and
put yourself in the best position to progress your music career, but
if you don't make music that people like, it will all be for nothing.
Make sure you have a good level of talent before taking this course,
or at least be aware that it won't have as much effect until you
produce better music.
* PEOPLE WHO DON'T LIKE READING.
Much of the material in this course is written, and goes into a good
amount of detail. An audio version of this course may be possible in
future, but for now it's all text and pictures.

THE IMA MUSIC BUSINESS ACADEMY PRICE

So how much does it cost to gain years of music business knowledge in
a fraction of the time? Well while I'm sure I could have charged
hundreds of dollars and still been offering good value for money, I
wanted to make this course as accessible to as many people as
possible. That being said, you can get access to this course for only
$20 a month!

This is a lot cheaper then any other online music business courses
available, with many of them charging well over $1,000 for a 6 week's
course. Here at the Academy however, we allow you to pay in low
monthly instalments, and learn as you go along. This doesn't mean
we're inferior to other courses however, far from it! We just feel
that you as a musician should have access to music business knowledge
without paying an arm and a leg for it.

The $20 a month is an on going fee that will go on for as long as you
want to stay on the course. As long as you keep paying the fee, you
will keep access to the members area, the support forum, and all the
materials. You get a new lessons every week for 27 weeks, after this
you can decide if you want to keep paying to keep access, or you can
cancel your membership.

This monthly fee is around the same price as it'd cost you to buy one
Big Mac a week, and much more healthy. Surely shaving off years of
learning the music business is worth the small price? If you agree,
then enrol now:

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the type of course this is (Delivered digitally
online) any payments are non refundable. If you are not yet sure if
this course is for you, you can test run it for the first month only.
If you decide you don't want to stay enrolled, simply cancel the
course within the first month and we won't bill you for any other
months. If however you want to stay enrolled, stay after the first
month and you will automatically be signed up as a full member. Your
initial charge will be $20, then you will be charged $20 every month
after that for as long as you stay enrolled.
