Strategies for Success: Self-Promotion Secrets for Musicians by Michael Gelfand Pdf

This book for professional and amateur musicians is an inspired cross between Stephen Covey’s wildly popular Seven Habits of Highly Effective People and Debbie Allen’s Confessions of a Shameless Self Promoter. Musician and rock journalist, Michael Gelfand (of the band, Fuller), shoots from the hip and tells his fellow musicians the straight truth about this business: It will chew you up and spit you out... all before breakfast... unless you’ve got a solid plan of attack. This advice is for every struggling musician out there who wants their band to gain momentum and break through the noise.
