DIY Musician Network Career Coaching

Chris Fletcher is the Founder of MusicBizMentors and works with musicians one-on-one. Her expertise is in helping new musicians begin their music journey, ignite a weekly ‘Action List’, help find the money gigs and suggest promotion ideas to grow your audience. In the past, Chris has built tours around college and festival gigs, secured much-needed sponsorships, grants, and equipment endorsements.

(See Chris Fletcher’s bio under our Music Mission)

HOW THE COACHING PROGRAM WORKS

Chris will need you to gather your music, videos and make a list of all the music projects you are working on and email that list to her about 3 days before your initial FREE phone/zoom meeting. At the first meeting, we will discuss how often we need to connect and how much time, you, as the musician, need to commit. Payments are based on the number of hours it takes to work on your project weekly. An affordable payment plan can be arranged.

Usual coaching includes at least 2 hours of meeting time plus up to 5 email chains a month. This is a 3-month commitment for both the artist and the coach.

HOW THE MENTORING PROGRAM WORKS

As a mentor, we can consult every few months to help you with your specific projects. Contact me at least one week before you would like to plan your One-to-One meetings in person, via Skype, or Zoom. Consultation fees are based on the number of hours we actually meet.
