Online Music Business Courses - The IMA Music Business Academy Struggling to make any sort of money from your musicb Cant get people to listen to your songs, even when you give them out for freeb Want a fast track method to navigate this brutal music industryb No matter what genre of music you make, weve 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 artb The only problem with this, is many musicians dont know how to go about doing this. Yes weve been told we need to get our music into shops, but how do you actually go about doing thatb And once its in there, how do we get people to buy itb 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 arent 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 youd want to be giving away Im 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 youve been doing music for any amount of time, youll 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), its 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, its not as easy as telling your friends on Facebook about a gig youre doing and them turning up. Yes they may click attending as its quick and easy to do, but the majority of those people probably wont turn up. What a uphill struggle rightb While talented, many musicians arent sure how to go about selling units or drawing in crowds. You cant simply put a buy now button on your website and expect to become rich over night, theres 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 (bAdd people on Facebook / Twitter all day and you will gain fans!, bGive away tons of music for free and you will create a name for yourself etc) it really isnt 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.

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, its 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, its 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 dont 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 wont have as much effect until you produce better music. People who dont 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 its 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 timeb Well while Im 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 $4.99 for a 7 day trial period! After that its $19.99 per 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 weeks course. Here at the Academy however, we allow you to pay in low monthly instalments, and learn as you go along. This doesnt mean were 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.
