A Message from the Author...
My name is David Nevue. I am the founder of
the Music Biz Academy (this web site) and author of the book,
How
to Promote Your Music Successfully on the Internet.
Let me come straight to the point.
The Internet is an
incredible promotional tool for independent musicians. You can get radio play, grow a fan
base, create a distribution channel, manufacture and sell CDs and
music downloads all online. You can use the Internet to create an
amazing amount
of exposure for your music. Wouldn't it be great if literally
thousands of people heard your music every
single day? What if you could use your web site to
sell 50, 100
or even
200 CDs every month? Not to mention
all the digital downloads of your
music you can sell via iTunes, Rhapsody,
Yahoo and dozens of other online
retailers. Guess what? It doesn't take a brain-surgeon to make it happen, but it
does take a lot of hard work – and you need to
know what you're doing.
Therein lies the problem.
Most musicians just have no idea where to start when it comes to online promotion and distribution. Some get as
far as putting up a web site, but stop there. They aren't sure what the next step should be. That's where I can
help.
Who am I?
I'm
an independent musician just like you, with one difference: In 2006, I used the Internet to generate
over $60,000 in income. Hard
to believe, isn't it? But it's true. Today I'm doing the "music business" full-time from my home in Springfield,
Oregon. I now invest my time developing
my music career
rather than spending 40-60 hours
a week working for someone else. I'm truly an
independent musician.
My intent with this book
is to give you the information you need to begin promoting, selling, and distributing your own music online. I'll
provide you with proven ideas you can put to use
immediately. It doesn't take a ton of money to get started either – that's another great
benefit of living in this digital age.
Simply put, in my book,
How to Promote Your Music Successfully
on the Internet, I'll take you step by step through the same
marketing strategies I've used over the last eleven years (since 1995) to promote my own music and run my music
business on my own terms.

reviews from my readers!
Cutting Through the Hype...
First, let's cut through the hype. If you want to be successful promoting and distributing your music online, it's
going to take time and hard work. Like anything else of real value, you get out of it what you put into it.
But here's the cool thing: your music career will be in
your hands. Once you have the information you need, your future will not be dependent
on somebody else doing their job, it will be dependent on
you doing yours. How refreshing would that be? You career won't be at the mercy of
a record label, some A&R person, or an agent who may or may not have your best interest in mind. If
your music is quality music,
deserving of an audience, you can find that audience online
no matter what the genre of your
music is.
You need knowledge, pure and simple.
In
How to Promote Your Music Successfully
on the Internet I'll give you good,
practical information you can put to
use
right away
to promote and distribute your music online. I will teach you, in a straightforward way, how to get your music
out there without wasting your time
or money on hogwash.
Let Me Tell You What This Book is NOT...
This book is NOT
full of advertisements for other services. I really hate it when you buy a book it turns out to be a 100 page long
pitch to get you to spend more money on other
products or "consulting" services! This book is all substance, and contains
no hot air!
This book is NOT
sparse. Yet another pet peeve of mine is when you purchase an ebook and the pages have 2 inch margins and LARGE
type to make the book look bigger than it really is.
How to Promote
Your Music Successfully on the Internet is
160 pages long, with
3/4 inch margins and 11 point type. In other words, I make the most of the space on each page.
This book is NOT
written by some guy who's trying to make a buck off of your hopes and dreams. I'm a musician, just like you, and
I wrote this book for a reason: to help other independent musicians achieve the same success I have. It sounds
corny, but it's true.
This book is NOT
overpriced. If anything, it's
underpriced. As a working musician myself, I understand finances are tight, plus I know you have other
priorities. One of my primary concerns for my customers is to keep my book
affordable. The PDF version of my book sells for just
$22.95, and that
includes one
free PDF update
to the next edition when
it's released! You'll be hard pressed to find a
quality ebook
anywhere that sells for less
and then gives you a free update
to the next year's edition, too!
I've
put literally years
of research into this book, and
I guarantee you'll find it to be
well worth the price. If you don't
agree, I'll refund your money.
This book is NOT
written by someone with lots of "theory," but no experience. I've lived this book! Everything in it,
every idea, suggestion, and strategy within its pages comes from my
own life experience. The marketing strategies
in my book are tried, tested, and true.
The are the very same strategies
I use to promote my own music online.
This book is NOT
out of date!
How to Promote Your Music Successfully on the Internet is updated every
year to stay current with the times! The Internet changes
constantly, and writing a book on Internet marketing requires continued vigilance! You can be assured that no other
book on marketing music on the Internet is as current, or accurate as this one.

I've Been Doing This a LONG Time....
I started marketing my music on the Internet way back in 1995! Like most musicians still do today, I put up a web
page with some sound samples (*.wav files in those days) and just hoped somebody would find me. My first year online,
I sold just two CDs. I wasn't satisfied with that at all! So I began experimenting with different marketing strategies.
After some failures and a few successes, I began to see more CD sales. I knew I was on to something when I began
selling four or five CDs a week! That gave me the idea to write this book, the first edition of which came out
in November of 1997. Since
them, I've updated this book probably
3 dozen times!
1995
was a long time ago, and since then
I've continued to build onto my success.
Over the last thirteen years I've expanded my online
music business to include not only sales of my CDs, but books (like this one), sheet music (transcriptions of my
own works), information and advertising. Plus
I own and operate the #1 Internet
radio broadcast on Live365.com.
Needless to say, the income generated through these music-related projects
has made a huge impact on my ability to both promote my music and to create more products, like CDs, to sell to
fans.
My
discography now includes nine CDs! I could never have accomplished
that without the additional income generated by my web site!
Full-Time Musician Status!
In November of 2001, I finally achieved a longtime dream: I quit my day job at Symantec Corporation (the makers
of Norton Antivirus and Norton Internet Security) to work in the online music business full-time. Now I have more
time to work on my music and spend with my family. Life has never been better or more fulfilling.

Use the Internet to Advance Your Music Career...
YES, you can use the Internet to create a LOT of exposure for your music. YES, you can use the Internet to bring
in additional income to invest right back into your music business. But can the Internet actually advance your
career? The answer, in short, is also, YES!
Use the Internet to Get
more Gigs...
Not
every musician wants to tour, but
if you do, the 2007 edition includes
an entire chapter on using the Internet
to book and manage your own tour.
I NEVER toured until three years ago,
but the demand from my fans for
live performance provided opportunities
for me to start doing so. Now I
travel - and make a profit -
from concert performances, too.
Just Think About It...
Thousands of people could be hearing your music
every single day. That's what I've been able to achieve. Just
four years ago I started up my
own internet
radio station and that currently
generates over a million
listening hours per
month. That equates to over
25,000 people a day hearing my music!
That translates into sales! And that's just one, single, web
site.
In this book, I will show you exactly
how I started up and promoted my
own Internet radio station so you
can do the same if you like.
Hundreds of people could be buying your CDs
and downloads. Wouldn't it be nice to sell 5-10 CDs a week from your web site? What about a 50-100 per
month? How
about
200 CDs every month
plus a whole bunch of digital downloads?
Success at that level takes a lot of work, but it is possible if you have the determination.
One reader wrote me to say that
after putting my suggestions into practice they sold over 3,000 CDs from their web site in 9 months! That's over
300 CDs a month
just from online sales!
Imagine all the contacts you'll make
when your music really starts getting out there. As a direct result of my time online I've gained distribution
overseas and a publishing agreement. On a regular basis I am contacted by independent filmmakers wanting to use
my music (which they discovered online) for their film projects. I am approached all the time about gig opportunities
all across the U.S. from people who found my music online.
Think about how great it will feel
when your fans begin to use the Internet to communicate with you, to tell you how much they love your music. Just
look at
the
email I've received from people at my own personal web site.
It's amazing the impact your music can have on people if they just have the opportunity to hear it! Best of all,
using the Internet, you have the opportunity to develop important
relationships with fans from all over the world. These fans can become an extension of you,
and many of them will
help
you get the word out about your music!
Who Needs a Record Deal?
Many musicians look desperately to be signed by a major record
label.
Perhaps you, yourself have aspirations of "making
it big" in the music business. But let me tell you something. You don't need a major label deal to have a
successful music career. If you are seeking
fame in the music business, then yes, you need the backing of big money. But, if you're
just wanting to do music full-time and be the quintessential artist, that's something you can do
all on your own, and the Internet
can help you reach that goal. I'm living proof of that.
I want to teach other musicians to use the Internet the way I have. Not only to bring in more income, but to gain
significant exposure for your music. In
How to Promote Your Music
Successfully on the Internet, I will show you how to target an
audience most likely to buy your music. I will show you how to convert visitors to your web site into sales, and
how to increase your fan base. I will show you how to sell more CDs, and how and where to distribute your music
online
(both digital and retail). I will also tell you what not to waste your time and money on. Basically, I'm going to use this book to
pass on pretty much everything I know about marketing music on the Internet. Whatever your end goal is, if it involves
using the Internet to promote your music, this book will help you do that.
If you want to create massive exposure for your music online, sell a lot more CDs and
downloads and use the Internet to both
generate income and advance your music career - this book is for you. In
How
to Promote Your Music Successfully on the Internet, I takes you
step-by-step through the methods I have used to find a successful music career online. Whether you are just getting
started online, or an experienced marketer, you will benefit from my experience.
And if you're not sure you can trust me, or you fear I have a hidden agenda, just read out the
many testimonials from satisfied readers!
This book delivers the goods.
There is Just No Comparison....
There are two or three competing books out there about marketing
music on the Internet, but only one by an unsigned, indie musician like yourself who actually understands where
you're coming from. This is the only book you need to find success selling your music online. To quote one of our
readers, other books on this subject "dull in comparison" to this one.
"I've read (several popular Internet Music Marketing books
named, but excluded here out of respect for the authors) and more prior to this purchase. They all dull in comparison.
I got more valuable info in your book than all others combined." -
Jeffrey Sanders
"A million thanks to you for your book “How to Promote Your
Music Successfully on the Internet.” In minutes, it answered questions I’d had for weeks...I figure you have saved
me months if not years of trial and error." - John Edmonds
"I am an experienced web surfer...but I never could have imagined that so much more existed out there than
what I already knew. I made so much progress after reading it in the ensuing week that I think that the book saved
me at least 6 months of toil and trouble on the web." -
Spike Spencer
"I am absolutely loving 'How to Promote Your Music Successfully
on the Internet!" I've been looking for exactly the information that you have provided me with, and would
