Why settle for low-paying club gigs, when you could be making $5,000 ... $10,000 ... even $50,000 or more playing the college music circuit?
You know the drill. Getting gigs at the obvious, high-profile live music clubs is like pulling teeth. If you can get someone to actually return your phone call or email, you're lucky to get an opening slot ... playing for free.
Even when you work your way up to a headlining slot, the money is nothing to shout about. You play these gigs to stroke your ego and make a few bucks. But it's rarely enough to release you from the bonds of your day job.
There's a better way ...
I'm talking about the lucrative college market, where hundreds of independent acts are making good money and thriving in ways they simply never could playing traditional venues.
Ari Nisman, president of Degy Entertainment, is one of the top college music booking agents in the U.S. He knows the opportunities and pitfalls of this often overlooked market. And now he's baring his soul and revealing all of his college booking secrets for the first time.
What's possible?
- One unsigned solo act on Ari's roster grossed $118,113.00 in college shows in one year alone.
- Another unsigned, country-rock band from Nashville raised their price from $750 to $2,250 per show in the college market and brought in $34,900 in a four-month period from college dates.
- Four showcasing acts Ari represents picked up more than 40 college dates each at college conferences.
My friend John Taglieri, a successful indie musician who has booked many good-paying college gigs working with Ari, sat down with the agent and grilled him for more than two and a half hours.
The entire interview was recorded and is available now -- along with a 54-page transcript of their entire conversation.
Learn the Inner Workings
of NACA and APCA
The key to this lucrative market is tapping into the National Association for Campus Activities (NACA), as well as the Association for the Promotion of Campus Activities (APCA).
These organizations have regional and national conferences where musical acts of all kinds showcase in front of hundreds -- sometimes even thousands -- of college campus entertainment buyers.
If you do well at a NACA or APCA showcase, you can book dozens of college shows worth tens of thousands of dollars in one fell swoop.
