    027: Getting Your Finances in Order with Alec Robinette Jan 02, 2019
    Show notes

    As we kick off 2019, it's important that we do the important things first. While it seems glamorous to spend money keeping up appearances, if you can't manage your finances responsibly, you'll never be able to pursue music as a full time career.

    Today on Music Business Dreams, I'm talking to Alec Robinette, a Certified Financial Planner. Alec believes that when artists prosper, they can deliver more of their message to the world. So, he founded Elemental Financial to empower musicians to take ownership of their wealth potential through financial planning, coaching and investment advice.

    Alec and I discuss the importance of budgeting, best practices for investing, and why he's made it his mission to give Indie Artists sound Financial advice.

    025: Is Music The Right Career for You? An Honest Conversation with KAIN Dec 19, 2018
    Show notes

    Building a career in Music is one of the most rewarding things you can do with your life. You'll write songs that touch the hearts of thousands. You'll play live shows and see people have a great time rocking to music you wrote in your bedroom. You may even make millions of dollars and tour the globe, all because of a chord progression you were fiddling around with in your car.

    But what if you don't go from starving artist to superstar overnight? What if the No's come faster than the Yes'? What if success takes you 5, 10, or even 15 years? Are you prepared for everything it takes to build a successful career?

    This week I'm talking to one of my best friends (and my management client) Kain, about his journey as an independent hip hop artist. Kain has shared the stage with artists including Cyhi The Prynce, Big Sean and BIG KRIT... but it wasn't always sunshine and roses.

    Quay and I get real about navigating the ups and downs of an independent music career. Have you been wondering if this path is right for you? If so, you'll want to take a listen.

    Quick Question: Do Spotify Streaming Numbers Matter? Dec 14, 2018
    Show notes

    This debate is getting really heated, so I wanted to clear the air.

    You shouldn't be getting super worked up about your Spotify numbers.

    As an independent musician, you should be making money in other ways.

    Vanity metrics don't matter. Getting to live the life of your dreams does.

    Keep pushing.
