MUSIC BUSINESS 101 CLASS
Our Music Business 101 Class is the reason most hear about us. Our class is an intensive overview of how the business-side of the Music Industry works for Artists, Producers, Managers, & Labels. It consists of 2 sessions. Each session is 2 hours long & a one-on-one follow up will be scheduled by the student after they complete Music Business 101. During the follow up Angie will register a few songs with you so that students not only know where they need to register, but how to actually work the necessary sites. She will also take some time to talk through your next steps for moving forward in your career. The goal of the Class is to help you organize your career so you can start to proceed forward in a way that makes sense & catches the revenue you are making off of your music.

WHAT ARE OUR STUDENTS SAYING?
Street Avenue Music
Producer, Little Rock, Ark, Group Class
I have been studying the business of music for years. With the changing of formats from cds to digital, I found myself lost in all the new ways to make an income. I have spoken with many individuals and read many articles but it only confused me more, to the point I considered giving up.
I got the opportunity to attend a class offered by Strangelady which reignited my desire to make money off my music. Not only was the class informative, the information was presented in such a way, you could not help but want to be successful. Mrs Strange took the time to make sure we understood everything, even extended class time to answer any questions. She is always available if you find yourself needing sound advice.
I recommend her class to anyone who is serious about making it in this new era of music business. Thanks you for giving us your knowledge continuously. She is the best!
