Music Business Classes Online

Matt's insight into the music industry and the business surrounding it is something you cannot put a price on, especially if you are a working musician. This is a must-watch.

This was all so insightful! It's early in my soon to be career as a working musician and this class is everything I wanted to know. It's great to hear some validation from people who've made it. This isn't some magic trick, this can all be achieved with talent, hard work and a being the best you can be to everyone around you. On top of being insightful I instantly connected with every guest and speaker. We're all going to friends one day and I can't wait. Great class lead by great people. Thanks Matt.

One of the best classes I have ever taken as far as how to make money in music. I highly recommend this for anyone who works in the music field as an artist - manager or independent label.

If you are currently teaching or just wanting to get started, Mike Johnston offers up amazing tips and insight for teaching drums. Taking this class is just one way to learn Mike's effective teaching styles, signing up for his online teaching site is HIGHLY recommended as well.

perfect for future music producers!!!!!! the hard but sweet reality !

Matt Halpern tells it like it is! Refreshing voice and perspective from a working musician who doesn't sugar coat anything. From the first lesson, you are informed of not what you should be doing but also how and what kind of personality it takes to thrive. I've always kept a cool head but never really had direction when it came to the business side of this industry. Can't wait to apply his logic to my own music journey!

As robust a blueprint as you're likely to get anywhere. Applicable to every genre and with the growing importance of authenticity to fans, this is the way you start, maintain and grow your music business free of corporate intervention. Great job guys!

Unbelievable course. Steve easy to listen to. He's funny, easy going but incredibly smart. I'm not a musician but have worked with many in photography and this man knows his stuff. Any creative should take this course and take notes.

Great course!

Beyond one of the greatest, if not the greatest, music biz courses I've ever taken. So thorough, with great speakers, and included such rich information. I truly appreciated and valued all that was said and all the hard work put into it. It was by far a class that's still worth talking about! - Tori Otamas

I loved this class, as it showed different careers in the music industry, which was so eye opening. It helps as a musician too, so you get a basic understanding of how promoting, touring, and distribution works, especially if you're doing it yourself. Very well spoken, and well laid out, I loved it

Love this, learned a lot!

Mike is such a great educator. He is well versed in all aspects of teaching and also branding and making a living with it. He is a passionate and truly dedicated teacher. I also really liked that he made it clear that teaching is not a plan b for him but his true calling and it can be such a rewarding experience. I got a lot out of this session and I truly recommend it to anyone who is interesting in taking this path.

This is the most brilliant class. There are so many great points in here, it is an information overload; but explained it such a simple way. I watch one of these videos almost every week, just to top up on what I should be giving my students - it serves as a good reminder and an even better teaching aid. Mike; time and time again, he releases great media that everyone must see. I can't speak highly enough of this.

Mike is an amazing educator and gives a wealth of information on the art of teaching, branding, and getting students. Mike is moral, ethical, and logical when it comes to teaching and having a business--especially in the Q&A when he got thrown a difficult question and nailed it. If you are an educator, private music teacher, or are interested in teaching then get this course! I have pages of notes from this course on teaching modalities, strategies, branding, social media, and the private teaching business. You won't regret it!

This information is priceless. For 50 dollars it's an absolute steal. Great work Matt and CreativeLive!

Just do it!!

Absolutely fantastic course from start to finish. I thought i knew most of the tools, methods and ideas of the modern musician - but i was wrong. This course filled me with food-for-thought and instantly inspired me to do more and try harder. Well worth it. Thanks guys!

Very inspiring.

AMAZING! I teach a rock band class for an option at my school and this covers a lot of what I wanted to do. I particularly like the PDF showing what job in the industry would be best for you. Great site, overall.

Nice!

Andy is soooo well spoken and interesting. Very helpful!

This was a comprehensive and inspirational course. I was definitely able to take away information that I will use to pursue my career as a Manager in the music industry.

We thoroughly enjoyed this class.

Great Mike and great CreativeLive! The course has given me a lot of useful insights on a topic that basically no one teaches you about, and it's a real shame considering all the young musicians who daily receive poor education from poorly taught teachers. Mike is always an inspiration and a fun guy to listen to (the imitation of Benny Greb was pretty accurate =oD ), so thanks! And many thanks to CreativeLive, who I just discovered and does a great job at posting high quality useful courses. I'd definitely check out the other courses. Keep on!
