How to book more gigs, get paid higher performance fees and develop a loyal fan base who attend your shows, buy your merchandise and support your projects are three top priorities you face every day. This book simplifies your path to Get Great Gigs and build a successful touring career.
“…I found How To Be Your Own Booking Agent to be the most helpful book on that, ‘making money, making music’ topic that I’ve ever seen…”
—Derek Siversfounder, CDBABY
You probably would much rather have someone else do this part of your business for you. It’s important for you to concentrate on being the best musician and performing artist you can—to take your career to the next level.
And yet, you need to book your own gigs and build your career to the point when you might attract an agent or a manager or even an assistant to help get the gigs you desire.
As a booking agent and artist’s manager for 20 years, I had to keep my acts working and find solutions to the challenges you might be experiencing right now. Some days I hated making the calls. Yet, the gigs needed to be booked—my artist’s livelihood depended on me.
That led to the booking strategies I created and used for years with my artists and coaching clients and now share with you in this easy-to-read, step-by-step guide.
I wish I had a resource like this to help guide me through my phone phobia and my lack of negotiation know-how. It would have been so much easier to have known about all the resources that are now packed into each chapter to simplify the process. This book is your easy-to-use guide to navigate your way around the business of booking and marketing your act.
“As someone who has had the experience of climbing from the bottom to the top of the music industry, I find Goldstein’s book to be THE road map for taking a career from oblivion to stardom, on one’s own terms while maintaining artistic integrity! By combining universal business practices with music industry savvy, HOW TO BE YOUR OWN BOOKING AGENT is your guide to success.”
— RAVI, Singer/Songwriter, Former Guitarist for Triple GRAMMY Nominee, HANSON
Exciting new insights from experienced professionals in the entertainment business pepper each page. The 24 chapters are enhanced with completely updated resource sections following each chapter, packed with recommended books, directories, websites, social media marketing resources and new conferences to help you reach your touring goals. This Revised 4th Edition remains THE Musician’s & Performing Artist’s Guide To Successful Touring.
The information in How To Be Your Own Booking Agent is visually accessible and easy to read. I’ve answered most of the burning questions, provided immediately usable methods and tackled many of the foreseeable problems.
Get your step-by-step guide and begin to get the great gigs you desire and deserve to create your successful touring career…
