The Artist Development Program

As we have noted in other sections of our website, it is vitally important that your promotional material be rewritten into an Artist Profile, which all "Priority" artists in the music industry have.

Thousands of artists a year do not receive the airplay, reviews or articles, distribution or simply the exposure their music deserves because they have sent either the wrong materials or a standard press kit to someone in the music industry. Most often the lack of return phone calls, ignored emails, or no response at all, is directly related to the fact that the person never reviewed the CD because the wrong promotional material was sent with it.

Beside the fact that most artists have not met the sales expectations that A&R directors and record company executives require, their music was again not reviewed because there was no Artist Profile accompanying it.

To make sure your music is listened to by whoever you send it to, Tim Sweeney & Associates will create with you, all the elements of the Artist Profile your CD needs.

First, Tim Sweeney will personally write your new biography or “artist story” written in article form for the print media. This new biography or artist story will not be written in historical form but in the proper artistic form to provide the reader with the insight they desire of who you are as an artist and the value of your music.

Next, he will create a "proper" retail one sheet that features the elements that the retail buyers need to have for ordering and the understanding of your marketing campaign. Most artists do not receive distribution or effective retail placement of their CDs into record stores because they create and use an improper retail one
sheet.

While your new biography and retail one sheet are being written, Tim Sweeney will teach you how to effectively write the insights to your songs, which will be critical for the radio and print media to have as well help you dramatic increase your CD sales online.

While the elements of your new Artist Profile are in development, our staff will be working on the “market by market” research of the targeted cities and markets you will be focusing on in your new promotion and marketing campaign. This market by market research will include the contact and mailing information for the market impacting radio stations, press publications, venues for you to perform in and impacted retailers in the targeted cities. Within the one month it will take to complete all of this, you will have available to you unlimited personalized consulting with Tim Sweeney.

The Artist Development Program which is one month in length total, can be used separately or as part of, the promotion and marketing campaigns that Tim Sweeney & Associates offers. If you choose to only use this first step in the Artist Development Program without the other promotion, marketing or consulting services, the total cost will be $2,500, which you can pay either by cash, check or credit card.
