Hey composers, what if you could host a stunning demo reel that actually converts — with built-in call booking and automated follow-ups — all in one place? 👀 I’ve been working on something that might just change the game.

Many composers in a nutshell: No, I don't care learning about correct self-promotion and marketing, I prefer to do it wrong and if it doesn't work, it's probably my music not being good enough.

Whenever you question yourself about not finding work as a music composer, check your demo reel or website and analyze how often it is about you you you ... and not about the benefits that you bring to the table for your client!

Typical argument of music composers: The market is so saturated, it doesn't make sense anymore.
See it from this perspective: 99% of people are lazy! Be consistent in your networking and build long-term relationships instead of going for the quick buck, then you have the biggest advantage ever!

Music composers still thinking the best method for a demo reel is:
- playlists with tons of tracks
- long video medleys
- long text bios
- listing all gear and awards
- links to every social network
- contact forms
- using YouTube or SoundCloud
... but still no project in sight? 🤔

If I would start off again today to become a professional music composer:
1. Getting familiar with the basics of music theory and sound design and listen to as many CI sounds as possible per day and analyze them to bits.
