Thread: Start by reading

Let me start by saying that there are more than just a few things that are important but always make sure you get good advice. As you probably know there are quite a few sharks in this business and it is quite easy to steer wrong if you are not careful. Therefor always educate yourself about the business side of music. It doesn’t matter how talented you are or how much money you got, if you don’t make the right decisions, if you don’t meet the right people or if you don’t sign the right contract, chances are that you are not going to make it!!
