Summary: INDIE LABELS THE LATEST TOPIC FROM POPULAR SEMINAR PRESENTE
Comment: The follow-up to her popular Billboard book, THE REAL DEAL: HOW TO GET SIGNED TO A RECORD LABEL FROM A TO Z, seminar entrepreneur Daylle Deanna Schwartz turns another popular seminar topic into a Billboard Books title: START AND RUN YOUR OWN RECORD LABEL. While most new artists dream of signing with a major label, others, such as fellow New Yorker Ani di Franco (Righteous Babe Records), opt to take the entrepreneurial path. Author Schwartz speaks on this subject with experience, reporting with devilish enthusiasm how she-as an artist-found no majors interested in signing a white woman artist who boasted rapping as her stock in trade. Revenge, she says, was sweet, and Revenge was also the logical name for Schwartz' start-up record label, which enjoyed success during the five years she kept it going. The book-like the seminar-covers the obvious but necessary topics: setting up a business, working with contracts, signing your artists, marketing and promoting your products,

touring your artists, doing business in the international arena, and aspects of Internet marketing. Ron Simpson, School of Music, Brigham Young University. Author of MASTERING THE MUSIC BUSINESS.

Summary: A good, solid, guide
Comment: As the owner of a independent world music label..., I was interested in consulting this book due to various reasons. My initial desire to buy this book was to get the advice and experiences of a person who started a label from scratch. Schwartz starts from a basic level in educating the novice on the pitfalls and glories of running your own label. The other reason I enjoyed this book was due to the personal vignettes that the author offers up from others in the music business. Overall, this book is not a revelation. Rather, it is a very simple and effective guide on how to start your own label. Just as advertised.

Summary: ok if you are a beginner
Comment: I think this one is ok if you are a beginner, but feel that most people with experience will find it a little boring. If you have no idea about the music business, I think this is a bargain for (). However, if you're out there playing in clubs and looking for something a little more focused on helping you make that happen. I really like "How I Make $100,000 in Music" by David Hooper to help you with understanding how music business people think, the Indie Bible by David Wimble to help you with contacts, and the Jeri Goldstein book about booking to put it all together.
