🔍 Strategic Management & Online Presence Consulting:
In the AI era, online presence is more relevant than ever. Without it, you won’t be visible the way you intend—and your personal or your artist’s promotion might be heading in the wrong direction. I regularly work on profiling and strategies to help create a clear and effective online image. Many music industry professionals use my services, but people in other fields also benefit from them. Beyond this, I offer broader strategic consulting related to artist management. This includes personalized advice to help you make well-informed decisions and navigate your career more effectively.

📚 Book Info:
You might know me from The Art of Music Business Management – For Artists & Managers or my Essence of the Music Business trilogy. These books reflect my practical experience in the music industry. Check out the links below! What matters is not just how you facilitate your progress, but how you make intentional choices that align with the evolving needs of the artist and the industry. It’s about recognizing opportunities, adapting to new information, and making strategic decisions that guide the trajectory forward, all while staying true to your mission.
