Don't release your next song without a Track Development Plan

Enter your information below and I'll email you a free download of my 3 page Track Development Plan.

WHY WE NEED TRACK DEVELOPMENT PLANS.

While at Sony Music as a VP of Sales and while managing Fearless Records, my job was pitching music to the major music services. This is what we use.

We’re in a new algorithm economy, and for your song to compete, you need this plan. Consumption is being driven by algorithms.

Too many artists are throwing music out there - with little or no plan just hoping to get lucky. That doesn’t work in any business, so it’s foolish to take that approach. You need focus, and to measure progress from one track to the next.

Your track campaigns need to build on top of each other. Think of it like a staircase of progress. Each time you do another track campaign - you apply the lessons learned to the new one - and you have the fan base multiplying each time, creating a snowball effect.
