1. BUDGET - Delegate a set amount of money (budget) to your career whether you have JOB or NOT save on Making Your career GREAT.
2. STOP WASTING MONEY - Do you need the NEW PAIR of TENNIS SHOES (Jordans), New Outfits, Marijuana, Beer, Club Parties & Chicken... lol. BUT NO 4 REAL - STOP WASTING MONEY THINGS w/ a Non-Return Value
3. INVEST WISELY - Spend money IN YOURSELF... get a Professional Bio, Press Kit, Pictures, Website, & Definitely Business Cards. Start Small & End up BIG!
4. COLLABORATE - Maybe your NOT a Good performing ARTIST but you can WRITE a HOT SONG. THEN seek to write for a PERFORMING ARTIST. Same things may apply here w/ the PERFORMING ARTIST; maybe your NOT GOOD at WRITING a HOT RECORD them seek to collaborate w/ a HOT WRITER before collaborating w/ another ARTIST. - FYI: PLEASE GET COMPENSATED (PAID) for YOUR WORK.
5. PHOTOGRAPHY - They say a picture is worth a THOUSAND WORDS & IMAGE is EVERYTHING so why waste your money on a non-professional look, image, & or photographer. ALWAYS, & ALWAYS remember that LIGHTING has A LOT to do with photography along w/ photoshop editing to evoke a captivating image. BE WISE & INVEST in a PROFESSIONAL on this ONE. NO EXCUSES!
6. INTERVIEWS - If you have done more SHOWS than you have Interviews then maybe YOU need to seek a PRESS RELEASE, PRESS KIT, & I definitely would recommend seeking a PUBLICIST. Enough is said on that one.
7. COMMUNICATE - Twitter & Facebook along w/ LinkedIN is the new wave of Interacting Social Media & Networking with people. If you want to be professional & meet more professional people than pay attention to WHAT YOU SAY & HOW YOU SAY IT. REMEMBER they say Think before YOU SPEAK; so THINK befoe YOU TWEET in 2011.
8. WEBSITE - You do want to make Money correct? WELL SELL YOUR MUSIC, Pictures, Image, Brand, TOUR, MERCHANDISE on your SITE. MAKE MONEY from YOU... Facebook nor Twitter doesn't provide these opportunities to buy your music DIRECTLY, & MYSPACE is Obsolete aka DEAD! Social Media are Tools, use them 2 build your networks & in return build your networth.
9. TECHNICAL - This may be a SEO (Search Engine Optimization), SMO, Marketer, etc. along with with a digital designer of say websites, & flyers. Technicians comes in handy to increase Your availability & visibility on the net such as search Engines. (Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc.)
