Why Does Team Business Matter to You?

Why Does Team Business matter to You ?

We're glad you asked

If you’re in one of the following categories, We can probably add some value to your ventures.

Singer / Songwriter:
Are you making the most of your talent? If you’re still waiting to be discovered, then we’ve found your first problem.

Additionally, We’re sure you know Ne-Yo got his start as a songwriter and that songwriting is a way in the door to the music industry. But, do you know that it often takes just as much dedication, sacrifice and ever-elusive connections to get into the songwriting game itself?

Producer:

When I was 15 years old my Dad took me to see the off-Broadway production STOMP and I heard the performers do beats on trash. Now, I’m 26 years old and I hear a lot of trash on beats. If you are an aspiring producer, We would recommend that you spend 60 percent of your time networking, 20 percent of your time studying music engineering, 10 percent of your time reading and if you have any time left over, then you should spend that time actually producing.

Musical Artist:

Do you want exposure, sponsorships, record deals, financial backing, tour support, big name collaborations and radio play?

So does everyone else.

If you keep working harder and smarter, success WILL come.

Success in the music industry is much more formulaic than some people think; you just have to be willing to do whatever it takes.

Corporate Executives Trying to Reach the Urban Market:
Remember that part of Airplane the movie where the black guy orders his food and the flight attendant can’t understand a word he is saying? Then, the old lady says, “It’s ok, I speak Jive, I can translate.” That’s what we do. Our company translates urban tastes and trends into actionable marketing initiatives and then packages and communicates brand meaning, power and value back to consumers.

College Student:
Do you get shaky knees when dealing with celebrities? How do you feel about working long hours for no pay? We’ve found that the best interns are those individuals who are extremely professional and who are willing to do whatever it takes to succeed in the music and entertainment industries. Please contact us for more info if you are interested.

Single Lady:

Make noise! (Noise can be made by submitting promotional pictures of you looking pretty advertising for Team Business. We will post all photos on this page. Everyone’s a winner, but one submission will be randomly chosen each week to display on our front page.)

All the chicken-heads, be quiet.


Independent Record Label:
The reason why you’re successful is because you think outside-the-box. That’s what we do. We should talk sometime. Artist development, tour support, radio promotion, national publicity, let’s make it happen, because no one is going to do this for us.

Major Record Label:
We all know that artist development is a thing of the past and that’s ok by me, because working with artists and egos is something that we have a lot of experience with.

· Cutting music programs from our schools = bad idea.

· Cutting artist development from record label budgets = good idea.

Our marketing strategies will help you sell more units at higher margins to more loyal fans. And everyone will make more money and better music.


Rich Philanthropist:
We went to Wake Forest University (well, three of us did) where the motto is “Pro Humanitate.” That means “For Humanity.” We contribute a portion of all of our profit to good causes.
You also like contributing to good causes so we should talk and we can direct you in the way of what we feel are some good causes.


People Who Have Dream:
If you have a dream, we want to know what it is. Hopefully you are following it.
Please let us know what your dream is, and what steps you are taking to realize it. We will post it.

If you have a dream but don’t know how to follow it, don’t worry. Post it anyway, and we will send you a free Report entitled “10 Steps to start making your dream happen.” It’s a good report, and it’s written from experience. It’ll get you on the right track. We got your back, we want everyone to live their dreams.
