In my experience, most musicians having trouble breaking through to the next level need help specifically identifying what is holding them back.
TEM Coaching will identify exactly what obstacles stand in your way and help you devise an actionable plan to overcome them.
Just like a trusted set of ears for our playing, an outside perspective is frequently what is needed to help identify the problems being faced.
And just like in the practice room, being able to diagnose and prioritize the challenges faced are the essential first steps toward moving past them and to realizing your goals.
TEM Coaching will empower you to:
Design and build a website that is as remarkable as your art
Craft the perfect email to successfully pitch anything to anyone
Program for a specifically targeted audience
Intentionally network to find collaborators and partners across the music business
Decide whether a for-profit vs. nonprofit business model is best for you or your project
Set up an LLC
Craft a successful business plan using a Business Model Canvas
Decide whether getting management or a record deal is best for you and your career
Self-publish books and albums that still get into the hands of your fans
Stand out to college search committees enough to get an interview
