This week we've been talking about your production problems and how I can help you in the new year.
I've talked to MANY of you on the phone and it's been great to get the opportunity to say hi and chat.
I've also been telling you the story of Andy who went through my coaching program.
As I promised yesterday, here's what Andy got out of working with me 1-on-1 to improve his productions:
"Before I had 1-on-1 coaching, I felt like I had a solid understanding of the mechanics of the tools of mixing, but lacked the foresight to see how I would use to serve the music before I started a mix. Now, when I start a mix I can see the big picture and I know exactly what I'll do on step 5 of 10 before I even get there.
The one big problem that 1-on-1 coaching helped me solve was to develop a strategy for creating a mixing workflow tailored to the way I write and produce music. Every artist has their own way of doing things that works best for them. Björgvin was able to provide guidance that helped me improve my way of making music instead of reshaping me into some predefined mold.
I really liked that Björgvin took the time to figure out how I like to write and produce music, and offer advice in a way that helped me build on my unique way of doing things!
I was surprised that this turned out to be much more than just technical advice for mixing. Björgvin noticed that I didn't have a good strategy to market myself nor a plan to achieve my goals for getting my music out for others to hear. During our last session, he gave me some great entrepreneurial advice to help me set and reach my goals! Having music you want to share doesn't mean much if you don't have a plan to get it out
there.
Everyone comes into audio production with a different skill set, a background of knowledge, and aptitude. You will benefit from 1-on-1 coaching regardless of your level of experience because each person has different holes in their knowledge that require custom attention to address."
If 1-on-1 coaching is something you're interested in pursuing in the next few months, let me know right now.
I can only take on so many students at a time and I only have the time for a few more to start in January.
If you can relate to Andy's story, hit reply and let me know you're interested and I'll send you more details.
