“Making it” in music is a ‘relative’ thing.

Every individual is different. Spend a day understanding the basic building blocks and use the F.R.E.E. model to plan and execute your ultimate lifestyle.
Learn to:
>> Travel the world and get paid to play music.
>> Put you marketing on ‘Autopilot’ whilst you’re off grid.
>> Use the F.R.E.E. (Financial, Responsibility, Effort, Expectation) model to craft the perfect lifestyle career for you.

Over 300 musicians or management professionals have now attended our courses. Here’s what they say …
“I’ve been on lots of courses where they teach the theory behind something but don’t give advice and training on how to implement it. This wasn’t the case here. Every teaching point is actionable, which is what I wanted to get from it.”
“The module gave me an incredible insight into music law but most importantly, it gave me the confidence and knowledge to asking the right questions about my publishing deals and distribution contracts. Well worth double the price..”
“The course was amazing. I thought I understood how most of the platforms worked but to get into the level of depth and control that Ellie explained was incredible. I’ve already started to use some of the strategies to incredible effect.”
“Working through the programme with Matt was amazing. The insight into how the labels approach different artists depending upon where they’re at and the scale of their assets was remarkable and definitely something that’s going to effect how I develop my projects.”
