### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    So great that I bought ALL THREE formats: audio, eBook, and Hard Cover
  

*by R***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2016*

This is absolutely THE BEST book out there (at the time of this review) on how to make a great living in the new music business.  Being a 6-figure musician myself for the last 5 years, I can personally attest that this great resource assumes that you work hard, have sufficient talent, work really hard, and follow the directions provided in such great detail in this comprehensive music career guide.  And did I mention that it’s hard work?Although you have to Do The Work, Ari shares so many excellent industry insights and creative ideas that you can *work hard* on what MATTERS to your music career, and not just spin your wheels. You will learn about everything from writing better songs to producing better recordings to branding your music to licensing/monetizing your music and more.I say this guide is comprehensive because Ari goes into great detail on all aspects of the music industry.  Whether you are a seasoned pro or just beginning, this book can help you to achieve your dreams of being a successful, independent professional musician making a good living doing what you LOVE.Do yourself a favor and GET THIS BOOK and REALLY follow Ari’s great advice.An aside: I bought all three versions so I could listen to the audiobook while I run/exercise, use the eBook for it’s keyword search-ability, and have the hard copy to mark up like a Bible. I have NEVER bought all versions of any book. This book is THAT GOOD.

    A MUST READ for all independent musicians and producers. This is the book you've been looking for!
  

*by G***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2017*

If you are working to become successful in the music business, either as an artist or producer, AND ON YOUR OWN PERSONAL TERMS, this book is an ABSOLUTE MUST READ. Other reviews say things like, "The best book I've ever read on making it in the music business". I totally agree.It covers everything you need to know. Let me repeat this for emphasis: EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW.  And it's very readable and easy to follow. Brilliant!Once you've read this book, I can also recommend some Udemy courses by Christopher Greenwood on marketing for musicians. (They regularly go on sale for $10). He's a musician who markets himself brilliantly. ( He also does a monthly online program called Fanbase University. I signed up for the first month which is $20, which gets you access to a lot of great videos, plus you can email him with any questions. I give him five stars, too!Udemy does a lot of great courses: Social medial marketing, piano, guitar, Logic, ProTools, etc. Plus Office, Word, Excel, Mac and PC tutorials, and a lot more. $10 is a great deal. Five stars for them, too!Another great book: The Future of The Music Business (How To Succeed with the New Digital Technologies) by Steve Gordon.But I still recommend you read Ari's book first. It's one of the best investments any musician can make in their career.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this book.  If I could give it a ten-star rating, I would.  I have zero interest in a music career and still I loved this book from the business sense it provides.  Heard the author on a podcast and loved his straight talk and generous spirit to SHARE his knowledge with others in hopes that they will 'make it' in the music business.  SO INSPIRING!  A perfect gift for anyone who has a dream of making music one day.  Game changer.  LIFE changer.  So big it could be used as a door stop, but so jam-packed with great advice.  You will be a hero if you give it away, you will be rich and successful if you do what Ari tells you to do.  As he says in the credits at the end, "Thanks to my parents for raising me right, teaching me to think of others before myself."  Better than college when it comes to business advice. His tips will fast-forward any music career.  And he says, "You have 'made it' in the music business when you can pay you bills doing what you love.  Not when you play halftime at the superbowl."  YES!  I appreciate that his tone is authentic and direct, and while some people/stories in the music industry can be crass, he isn't.  He says it like it is but keeps it "PG" by writing 'work your a$$' off instead of the real word.  This is part of what makes it a good gift for young adults - gave it to a high school senior.  So good.
