I’ve devised a simple exercise that can help put you on track to booking and playing the exact right number of gigs for your situation. When you do this exercise, you can watch stress and overwhelm just slip away and experience confidence and feel motivated to book…
Whether you are ready to book your first gig or just need to fill in a few dates, booking those gigs can be challenging. If you are just getting started, you probably don’t have many or any fans on a mailing list or social media. So how the heck do you get a crowd to buy tickets to your show?

So frustrating and such…

Booking & Touring Success Strategies & Secrets Online Course Get paid higher gig fees by building your value in each market. But, how do you build your value? One way is to track every gig you play in and around each market.

Now when you have hard, cold facts like numbers, you are better able to negotiate the next…
