The staff and coaches at Modern… The staff and coaches at Modern Musician are all very knowledgeable and friendly. Their Gold Artists program is superb. I highly recommend it to any musician looking to step up their musician business and take it to the next level.

Modern Musician is giving new life to our music business Modern Musician is giving new life to our music business! They provide personalized in-depth training for all aspects of our work (and life) as musical artist's and de-mystify the on-line experience and opportunities therein. Emerging from an old business paradigm, the scope and quality of what Modern Musician provides is exactly what we need to bring us fully into the modern era . We could not be more grateful! Newly graduated from the Gold Artist Academy the path is laid out before us.... this is fun! Narayan & Janet

The real deal. First of all, I've done quite a few coaching programs in and around the area of music marketing. Some have been ok, others not so much. With Michael and the team at Modern Musician, I've found not only a coaching program with a methodology that truly works, but a community of like minded people looking to continue to learn, grow and help each other. It's an investment, but then anything worth pursuing is going to be. I'm sure I've got a lot to learn and a long way to go towards growing my fanbase, but Modern Musician has given me a start and a path forward to continue to work with them and engage with their artist community along the way. Highly recommend.

Modern Musician and it’s incredible… Modern Musician and it’s incredible team members are able to take the wild, woolly world of music marketing and distill it into a digital music ecosystem that makes sense for the fan journey. They’re masters at connecting the dots so things can be happening while you sleep—also freeing you up to make more music that connects with more people. Can’t say enough good things about this company and crew!

Taking the Gold Artist Program at Modern Musician Taking the Gold Artist Program at Modern Musician was a big step in my music career. I learned a lot of valuable things that helped me improve my habits and outlook on my music career, and I had a lot of breakthroughs that changed my thinking and approach around monetization, merch, email list building, and more. The best part of the program was getting to know other musicians and to have a really practical, inside view of what they're doing—the nuts and bolds of how an ad performed, how much they spent on shipping merch, how they figured out how to monetize their livestream, etc. One thing that holds me back from giving a 5-star review is the fact that, after following the coursework and really putting in the work, I'm operating at a STEEP loss which does not make my current setup viable in any way for me. Some of the business systems that have proven profitable for members of the Modern Musician team haven't worked as well for me—for example, the ad system that seemed to work well for others are insanely expensive for me to run, and shipping costs from Canada erase the profit margins on physical goods. I've spent a large portion of my time re-engineering the systems that were said to work when I joined the program. Becoming monetized and profitable was the main reason I joined, and that was a huge selling aspect of the course, so truthfully I am a little let down that I'm not seeing any returns. So, in the end, I'm going to get a result that works for me, but it's only because I'm willing to really put in the work and redesign it all, based partially on concepts I learned in the course. Overall, this is a fantastic group of people. It's a lot of work to implement the coursework, but if you do, you'll end up with a more organized system for running your business, connecting with fans, positioning your merch, and other aspects of being an indie musician!
