Get More of What You Want.
Without Selling your soul!
Stop settling. Start asking.
Too few musicians are taught to negotiate. So they don't. They take the first offer. They pay full price. They feel awkward asking for what they're worth. I wrote this short book to change that.
How to Negotiate is straight-up advice from someone who's done it for decades—in business, in music, in life. It's practical, easy to read, and built to help you walk away with more—more of what YOU want.
I'm not here to turn you into a shark. Quite the opposite. I'm here to help you stop walking away with less than you could've gotten—just because you lack the skills and confidence.
What you'll get from this book:
- How to comfortably and effectively open a negotiation
- What to say when they say "No"
- How to think about added value in return for when money's tight
- Why being enjoyable and easy to work with is one of your strongest negotiation tools
- When to walk away—and how to do it with confidence
🎵 A note for musicians
I added a final chapter specifically for musicians—because I've seen too many talented players sign terrible deals, accept bad gigs, or give up ownership of their work just to get a shot.
This chapter breaks down:
- How to look after your rights in publishing and recording contracts
- How to ask for what you want when negotiating a gig, teaching rate, or collaboration
- How to stop giving your music away and start doing something with it
- How to go about getting your power back—even if you gave it away years ago
If you're someone who freezes up in negotiations, avoids conflict, or just wants a little help getting what you're really worth—read this little eBook.
You don't get what you deserve. You get what you're willing to ask for.
