Musician’s Corner®

The Musician’s Corner® by Tom Leu

Professional Development for “Next-Generation” Rock Stars!

Effective, real-world indie music promotion, strategies, solutions, motivation, and inspiration for beginning bands and independent musicians (and their supporters) to stop sucking and start succeeding! Written in a concise, easy-to-understand style, this is Psychology for Success in Music! You need to know how to promote & sell your music better than your competition. The Musician’s Corner® reveals the secrets from a professional musician’s and manager’s perspective. No pie-in-the-sky scenarios, just effective tips, techniques, and insights that deliver results right away! This audio book talks extensively about three main areas:

MONEY – how to make more of it as an independent artist!

MARKETING – how & why to sell yourself first, your music second!

MYTHS – what you don’t know, you don’t know, about the music biz!

The messages contained throughout the Musician’s Corner® audio book deliver a “reality mentality” by blending honesty with inspiration; the practical with the positive. I’m blunt up front but always end with encouragement. >> TESTIMONIALS

This material is not for the unteachable… I don’t want to talk to those who are jaded and jilted; the negative nay-sayers who think they know it all. If that’s you, this ‘aint for you.

This material is for those who are willing to learn and eager to get honest about this business of music that they are into. These resources are for those who are passionate about making progress with their music by investing time in the subtleties of success that any business requires, but are often over-looked.

  • I am not here to talk about playing music, I am here to talk about effectively selling yourself and your music once you already know how to play.

  • I am not here to teach you how to play a “C” chord, I am here to make you “see” the realities required to become a successful independent artist or group.

  • Don’t be one of those groups who do nothing, know no one, and end up going nowhere…

“Money, Marketing, & Myths Inside the Musician’s Corner is a highly informative Book/CD set that should be an indispensable part of any serious musician or artist’s library.  As I say on my radio show: “There are no secrets, only that which you don’t know, and when you know it – it’s no longer a secret.”  The Musician’s Corner resources will help reveal the “secrets.”

“Tom Leu’s success techniques and positive (but realistic) approach can be applied to a lot more than just the business of creating and marketing sound. Unlike many resources of this type, it’s also an entertaining reading experience. Leu speaks in terms that can be understood by virtually anyone, and speaks with a passion that’s downright contagious!”

– Gary Hill, author and music journalist
