GBModern Musician Indeed! MM has been so essential for me! The program has taken my career - and my relationship with my career - to a new level. In the space of a year, I more than doubled my fanbase and was finally able to cover my advertising costs by selling merch to superfans all over the world. It's a lot of work, but very much worth it. Michael and team have created an ever-evolving system that gives artists real agency in these confusing times. Highly recommend.

GBThe best investment you can make in your music career. The Modern Musician program has been completely transformative for my career as a musician. It has taken my just-for-kicks level project into a full scale, viable business with a reach that I never would have thought possible. The MM team combines leading edge tech with marketing know-how and expert peer-to-peer coaching for the most well-rounded, holistic solutions available to musicians. If you're a musician with strong material but lack of know-how to promote it, give yourself this gift and invest. You will be glad you did.

GBGreat People that truly care about who… Great People that truly care about who you are as a person and how they can help you be the best version of yourself so you can in turn go and serve your fans better than you could have before. All the coaches are top notch and give honest feedback about how you are the artist can serve your fans better. It's been the best experience I have ever had with coaching in the music business.

SEModern Musician masterclass I went to the masterclass. I learn nothing and did not get the freebie that was promised in the beginning of the call. It was stated in the beginning that "this is not like those other masterclasses or webinars", literally stating that they're "not here to do commercial". This was the only thing this masterclass consisted of. It also took this dude 3 HOURS. The dummest thing I've spent that much time on in years.

CATaking 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!
