Are you sick of making music but struggling to get anyone to listen
to it? Want to start making money from your music but aren't sure how
to start? We've all been there before.
Progressing your music career isn't an easy task at all. You won't
simply get 1000s of fans over night who all want to buy your every
song release, it simply doesn't work like that. Having said that, it
doesn't have to be a super slow process either.
I've seen musicians spending years trying to progress their music
career with no luck. They may get the odd new fan here and the old
couple of single sales there, but is it anything really worth while?
In my opinion, no, it's not. Especially when you've investing your
time, money and soul into making good quality songs that other people
will enjoy!
You might still enjoy making music, but why not get paid for your
art? If you make music that could benefit people's lives (Which you
should be doing), you want them to hear it, and be rewarded for your
efforts.
But being heard and being rewarded often doesn't come if you do the
wrong things. Many musicians fall into the trap of working for a long
time on something they feel will reward them, only to realize at the
end it hasn't made much of an impact on their music career at all.
Then it's back to square one again.
The thing is, a lot of these musicians can do better. It's not that
some of them don't have talent, it's just that they're doing the wrong
things. This could be in terms of promotion, in terms of the things
they do at gigs, the path they take with their music, or the way they
present themselves to potential fans. In other words:
THEY MAKE SMALL COMMON MISTAKES THAT COST THEM BIG!
In all honesty, I can see why this happens. As an independent
musician, you're not really told what is right or wrong. You don't
have lessons at school teaching you how promote your music, so you
have to learn everything by yourself through trial and error.
The danger with this however, comes when you try something and
mistakenly think it's right, or 'good enough'. It may seem like you're
now moving your music career forward more then before, but are you
really? A few months to a year down the line, will you have made any
REAL progress?
Even if you do, who's to say you couldn't do something different that
would take months (Or years) off the time it takes you to get to where
you want to be in music?
The thing with trial and error, is it's a timely process. You will
make mistakes that will slow down your progress, and you may never hit
on a winning formula.
It's also a lot easier to get demotivated when going down the trial
and error route. When trying new things by yourself, nerves can get
the better of you. When you get nervous about something, it gets
easier to put it off. It can take a while to build up the courage to
try this new thing again, or it may simply never get done. This can
also add a considerable amount of time onto your music career, and
mean it takes longer for you to start getting fans and making money.
So, is there a way to get around these time consuming barriers? Yes,
there is.
THE SOLUTION
I'm not going to beat around the bush here:
THE BEST WAY TO GET TO WHERE YOU WANT TO BE IN MUSIC IS BY LEARNING
FROM PEOPLE WHO HAVE DONE IT ALL BEFORE.
Yes it's possible to learn everything by yourself over time through
trial and error, but if you could shave years off the bottom end of
your music career by learning proven strategies from people in the
know, why wouldn't you do that?
This is what we're offering you here at the IMA Music Business
Academy. The Academy is a online music business course that will give
you proven strategies for doing a lot more with your music career.
In the Academy, you will get access to a new high quality lesson

website (We will give you a username and password to log in when you
sign up), and you can read them either when they come out or when you

Final Advice
All together, the combined length of all these lessons is the
equivalent of close to THREE NOVELS. Yes, there is a lot of knowledge
shared in great detail on this course.
Each lesson will teach you new tactics and strategies that will help
progress your music career. These are proven methods that the record
labels and successful independent musicians have been using for years
to increase their fans and income. You can use these same tactics to
get things moving for you too.
At the end of each lesson, we will give you a task to do. In order to
make the most out of this course, you should carry you these tasks as
mentioned. This will mean you'll actively be putting into action the
things you have learned, and increasing your chances of success. While
you can carry out the tasks in your own time, it's advised you put
them into practice at least once a week so you can get your music
career moving as soon as possible.
