Promotions- I have 7 years experience in this field. From strategizing effective guerilla marketing/street campaigns to flyering and promoting your shows. Not in Austin? I have a team of over 350 young people all over the country and the world who will be able to assist you in your marketing needs. I am not a publicist, but I will service your music to over 150+ music blogs.

Sponsorship- Turning to sponsors to help fund costs associated with touring and recording is essential in this economy.  There’s a lot of free money out there if you know where to look. Don’t? That’s where I come in!

3. Not in Austin? No worries, I work with a handful of the best vendors in the country who have continuously proven to be the cheapest source possible. However, in my book- cheap cost doesn’t mean cheap product. Know that the products I am creating for you will only be quality.

Designers:

Service your work-Do you have designs already made that you are looking to get commissioned? I work with dozens of band, labels, and businesses who are continuously looking for designs for various projects/merchandise. If I feel like your design will meet their aesthetic needs, I can service your design to them.

Find you commissioned jobs- Bands, labels, managers and people come to me when they are looking to get something custom designed. If your design is similar to what they are looking for, or matches your aesthetics, I will come to you and ask for a custom design that will potentially be commissioned. If it isn’t, I will continue to service your work to others.
