I see tweets like this almost every day:

"I've learned more about music production on Youtube in 6 months than I did in my entire college music courses."

It's safe to say the future belongs to those who seize this opportunity.

That is to say — those who follow their passion, learn to produce, learn to promote, and learn to capture attention in the age of streaming.

It might sound too good to be true (and it was once considered impossible), but the reality is most people haven't realized this potential future.

The influencers you follow saw the opportunity.

They were among the first to embrace this new era.

And after interacting with many of them, I can assure you, they're not "special."

They're just proficient in the skills listed above.

These skills can be learned. Quickly.

So, who can benefit from this?

Anybody that falls into one of these categories:

I've explored it all.

Selling beats. Spotify playlists. Instagram music snippets. Collaborations with fellow musicians. Email newsletters. Drum and Sample packs.

Whatever it took, I gave it a shot.

After countless messages to playlist curators, borrowing gear from friends, and sleepless nights trying to "crack the code," I was exhausted.

Not only did I struggle with all these methods, but I despised every moment of it.

Creating music was a blast — seriously, I could spend hours lost in my studio.

But chasing after fans who didn't resonate with my vibe? Not fun in the slightest.

I had zero interest in engaging with people who didn't connect with my music on a personal level.

I had zero interest in tailoring my projects to fit someone else's tastes.

I was in it for the connection, not just the numbers. For the joy of sharing my passion and seeing it resonate with others.

Hey, I'm Jared.

I'm a mentor for aspiring music producers, artists, and performers looking to level up their online presence and grow a dedicated fanbase.

I'm the go-to guy when they want to transition from struggling artist to respected and followed sensation online.

I guide them in streamlining their creative process, marketing strategy, and content creation so they can spend more time making music, reach more ears, and organically build their audience.

I excel at this because I've experimented with every technique on my own musical journey. Finding new ways to connect with fans and grow creatively is my idea of a good time.

I'm passionate about breaking down complex strategies into actionable steps anyone can understand.

Seriously, I'll be up until the early hours brainstorming fresh ideas to boost social media presence, release new tracks, and brainstorm innovative ways to engage with fans.

Thanks to this dedication, I've grown my own fanbase to over 16,000 followers on Intsagram, with just a few hours a day to my craft, all while maintaining a steady stream of income from my music.

(Just so you know — I don't have any fancy music degrees or credentials, and I haven't stuck to just one path.)

I know it might sound like I'm bragging, but I'm willing to take that hit if it eases your concerns about learning from me.

However, I'll never apologize for being as transparent as possible.

Over the past four years, I've delved into diverse interests like music theory, production techniques, performance skills, branding, and more.

And guess what? I've built a thriving career by sharing my knowledge in these areas.

That's what inspired me to create this hub for aspiring musicians.

But something was missing.

There was a lack of straightforward guidance on navigating the complexities of building an online presence in the music world.

Why? Because the industry is constantly evolving, and everyone's still finding their way.

People say "hustle and grind," but what does that really mean for musicians?

After years of working with top talents, I've distilled my experience into a system that consistently delivers results.

These are the strategies I share with my clients, tailored for those starting out or looking to take their music to the next level.

The truth is, anyone can grow their fanbase and earn a living from their music (especially now).

But who has the time to spend years figuring it all out? Or worse, who hasn't yet realized the potential that lies within them?

I've created and offered:

I've generated substantial income from each of these avenues, whether I had a large following or none at all.

Here are some examples of weekly earnings from drum pack sales (back when I had less than 3,000 followers):

And here are a week of payments from clients during my coaching days (designing content and creating marketing funnels), before I had a significant following:

Plus, a month of revenue from membership communities and previous coaching programs (related to music marketing), with profit margins exceeding 90%:

I'm not one to flaunt revenue figures, but I understand the value it can provide.

It opens your mind to what's achievable as an independent musician leveraging the internet's vast reach.

Looking back, I've experienced failure and success in nearly every facet of the digital music landscape.

Can your music professor (charging exorbitant tuition fees) say the same?

It's as simple as that.

You'll learn everything you need to launch, grow, and monetize your music career online.

You have all the tools you need. You just need a system to help you share your talent with the world.

Every day I hear artists talking about finding their unique sound.

I also hear them pondering how to blend their passion with what resonates with fans.

The truth is, you already have the melody. You just need to find the right rhythm.

This isn't about luck or talent.

It's about mastering a system that blends branding seamlessly.

Once I found this rhythm, my audience started growing with me.

My views soared, feedback poured in, and my social following hit new highs.

The key to success in the digital scene is the vibe, resonance, and originality of your content.

Your content should hit the right notes with your audience.

Everyone has a different rhythm and vibe they connect with. It's about staying true to yours.

It should strike a chord or inspire action — that's what sticks with your fans.

That's what distinguishes you from the crowd of copycats.

Here's a post from Jolo before I shared my social media strategy with him. It only got 11 likes:

Keep in mind he already had a base of quality music, consistency, and an existing project.

1 month later after we started working together and his post got a 10x the results:

And here are some more grounded numbers...

Jolo went from 25 to 18,000 impressions on Instagram per month:

Just remember, your inner circle might question your methods (but it's a sign you're onto something good).

I remember when I first started my friends said I was crazy for taking a leap into music.

My videos got basically no views when I started...

But within 2 years, I hit 10,000 followers and am now at 16,000:

The following has allowed me to connect with some cool people, and even get reposted by Russ!

Most artists are sitting on a treasure trove of skills, experiences, and inspirations (that can resonate with those a few steps behind).

That's what fans pay for.

Considering most of the scene are beginners... if you're good at something, you can help them find their rhythm (no matter how basic you think the information is).

After all, isn't that what you do all day? Fans don't always want new tunes, they want to groove to what works.

You're not gaining traction because you're not putting yourself or your art out there.

That's the only way to make waves. Have something remarkable and consistently share it with the world.

In Phase 4, I'll show you how to groove with systematic, automated promotions.
