The purpose of this group is to connect music promoters to education and resources to help with music success in audience reach and revenue.
You are a lover of music. You may be good at making it, or creating events where music can be heard. You may not know about marketing, networking, licensing, booking, and the numerous things you need to do that are a part of promoting your music and increasing revenue. You don't have to do this alone.

- We track metrics to make sure we are on the right track
- We work as a team. First, being fans to each other to attract more fans.
- We tell a story- Just like we tell a story in the songs we perform, people want to know your story. What it is like to create music? What kind of person does it.
- We are consistent- When your fans know when and where to show up, they will do it.
- We are a community of music lovers that want to equip as many people as possible with the tools to continue to create and share music.
Together, we will all discover bigger opportunities to share our music and find satisfaction!

I recommend that if you haven't thought about what story you are telling with your music promotions you begin here. If you have begun to tell your story, find out how to make your story most effective. Musicians perform and tell a story through music. Now it's time to tell your story.
