Welcome to the official launch of the Sync Tank!
I hope you're excited to get started. I've put a lot of thought and effort into this program, and my goal over the next 90 days is to give you all the information, tools and resources you need to succeed in licensing your music.
Every day, for the next 90 days, I'll be posting a different lead and twice a week, on Mondays and Thursdays I'll be posting a lesson, assignment and video tutorial. On some days, the lesson and video tutorial will overlap, and on other days they won't. Once we do our consultation, I'll be able to customize the leads I provide you even more based on the type of music you make and your goals related to licensing your music.
My goal is to present all of the information to you in a way that isn't overwhelming and will allow you to move forward, one step at a time, each day, throughout the 90-day long program. I suggest having 30 to 60 minutes each day to devote to going through all the information I present and submitting your tracks. But, you can always go back and catch up if you miss a day or two, and all of the information can be reviewed at your convenience right here, from this member's portal.
With that said, let's get started!
Today's Lesson - Study The Market:
One of the keys to licensing music successfully is to have a good grasp on the wide variety of music that actually gets licensed. You need to study the "market" as you would in any other industry to be competitive. A lot of artists are simply making the music they make, with little or no thought to licensing, and then shopping it around here and there, after the fact. After their music is already made. This isn't necessarily wrong. You could license music this way. But taking this approach leaves a lot to luck. Maybe you're writing music that works for licensing, maybe you're not. By studying and really paying attention to music that is being used on a regular basis, you'll get a much clearer idea of what the demands of the music licensing marketplace are and where your music fits in.
Today's Assignment:
Today's assignment is to start really paying attention to music that is used in tv shows, films, commercials and so on. The next movie or TV show you watch, I want you to really focus on the songs that are being used. Notice what songs are used and how they're used. Notice the relationship between the dialog and the lyrics of songs. Notice how the style connects with the period and atmosphere of the scene. Notice how the mood of the music relates to the overall story and theme of the show, movie or commercial you're watching. Get a sense for how it all fits together. Could you see your music being used in this way? Do you have music ready to go that would work in a variety of situations? The first step in succeeding in the licensing industry, is really understanding what kind of music gets licensed and why. Don't just make music and then throw it against the wall, hoping it will stick somewhere. This is a craft. Approach it this way and you'll have much more success.

Today's Video Tutorial:
Today's video is about how to prepare your tracks for licensing opportunities and the different types of files you'll need when you start pitching your tracks.

Day 4 - 4/17/25
Today's Lesson - Researching Companies:
I've interviewed over 100 people working in the music licensing industry over the last several years. I've interviewed publishers, supervisors and owners and founders of music libraries. When you talk to this many people working in the same industry, certain recurring themes and patterns come up over and over. One of these themes, is that very few musicians take the time to really research and get to know the companies they're reaching out to, when trying to get their music licensed. Most musicians are just randomly contacting companies, submitting there music to anyone and everyone. I've heard from multiple publishers and supervisors that this is a real issue. Most people working in this industry are inundated with submissions and they simply don't have time to listen to everything that is sent to them. If you're not submitting music that is relevant and you're not demonstrating that you've researched the company you're sending your music to, there's a good chance your music won't be heard.
Today's Assignment:
Today's assignment is two-fold. One is to simply spend time researching the companies you are trying to work with. Go to their website, read their bio, listen to the artists they work with, do a google search and find out as much as you can about them. Look at past projects they've worked on, search for upcoming projects when possible. In short, try to learn as much as you can about each company you want to work with prior to submitting your music. Then, when you do reach out, let them know why you think your music is a good fit. Indicate what projects you think your music would be a good match for. If this isn't possible, let them know what it is about your music stylistically that is a good match for their company. In other words, let them know you've taken the time to learn about their company and you want to help them with their needs. Remember, this is a service oriented business. You are in the business of helping people meet their musical needs.
Part two of today's assignment, is to watch today's video tutorial, about how and why to approach music like a business. This video features an excerpt from an interview I did with Joel Feinberg of DeWolfe Music. Warning: Joel uses some pretty harsh language in getting his point across!

Day 8 - 4/21/25
Today's Lesson - Professionalism:
I think it's safe to say that most artists, when they go about trying to get their music licensed, are primarily focused on themselves. They're focused on their music and trying to meet their goals. This is completely understandable and it makes total sense. You make music and you're passionate about it and you're passionate about your goal of hearing your music in TV and Films. So, of course you're going to be focused on your music and your goals. However, if you're trying to license your music through different music licensing companies (libraries, publishers, supervisors, etc) it's not just about you and your music. If you're trying to work with someone else professionally, you have to also be aware of the goals and needs of those you're trying to work with. What are their needs and how can you serve them? How can you make their lives easier? How can you help them do their job and help them achieve their goals. When you start to make this shift and keep this in mind in every email exchange, conversation and interaction you have with people in this business, you'll start to make a lot more headway. You'll also start to see more clearly why perhaps you haven't had as much success as you would have liked in the past, if you've only been focused on your music and achieving your own goals.
Today's Assignment:
Today's assignment is an extension of yesterday's assignment. Yesterday I talked about how it's important to research companies and demonstrate you've done a little homework before blindly submitting your music to anyone who will listen. This demonstrates you're not just focused on your goals, but that you're also interested in helping others meet their goals. Along the same lines, think about other ways you can demonstrate you are professional and going to be easy to work with. Publishers and Supervisors are looking for musicians who are going to be easy to work with and efficient. One way to demonstrate this is by anticipating the different types of needs of those in the business and having different edits and versions of your tracks ready to go (See the video from Day 1 for more on this topic). Another thing you can do is make a showreel featuring some of your best tracks alongside some of your placements, if you have them, and if not just using stock video footage or other footage that works to accompany your music. Doing things like this will help you stand out from your competition and demonstrate that you're professional and take your craft seriously.
Today's Video Tutorial:
Today's video is an excerpt from a video presentation I did with composer John Delvento about the importance of having a showreel and/or creating genre specific playlists.

Day 11 - 4/24/25
Today's lesson - Production Quality:
Music production is an important component of getting your music licensed. If you have amazing songs that work great for licensing, but they're not adequately produced for licensing, you won't be able to license them. It's that simple. Your songs need to be ready to go, as is. Knowing this, it's important that you take the time to objectively assess whether your songs are ready to go, production wise. Now music production isn't an exact science. It's somewhat subjective, even among music publishers and supervisors. Different people have different tastes and preferences. It's unlikely that you'll ever please everyone. But with that said, a lot of music that is being submitted to music licensing companies, simply isn't "good enough" production wise. Make sure you're not one of these artists. Take the time to really study the market, get a feel for the production quality of music that is being consistently licensed and make sure your music is on the same level, in terms of the quality of music production. Getting your production quality up to speed might involve improving your own production skills, if you produce your own music, or it might involve working with an outside producer. Whatever the case, make sure you know the quality you're shooting for and do whatever you have to do to get there.
Today's Assignment:
Today's assignment is to study the production quality of music that is being licensed and determine whether or not your tracks meet this standard. There are a few different ways to do this, the easiest is to probably simply check out music libraries websites and listen to the artists they work with. Many publishers and libraries will feature music they work with right on their website. Spend some time really getting to know the market and what music is being licensed where. On day one, I asked you to research and listen to music that's being licensed to get a feel for what kind of music is licensed. Today I want you to research and listen to music and specifically focus on the music production. If you listen to enough music that is being licensed, you'll see there is actually a wide variety, in terms of production quality. Some tv shows and placements have lower standards than others. Typically the more lucrative the placement, the more stringent the standards are in terms of production quality. Make sure your tracks at least meet the minimum standards necessary for music licensing, before you start shopping them around.
Today's Video Tutorial:
Today's video tutorial is about what I like to think of as the "Three Pillars Of Music Licensing". I think there are three main areas you need to master when it comes to successfully licensing your music. They are: songwriting/composition, production and marketing.
Check out the video for more.

Day 15 - 4/28/25
Today's Lesson - Music Licensing Is A Long Term Endeavor:
Music Licensing is a long-term endeavor. It normally takes time to get things rolling. It's not often that an artist decides to start licensing their music and is met with success right out of the gate. Of course, there are exceptions, and anything is possible. But in general, in my experience of working with hundreds of songwriters, it takes time to build momentum in music licensing. It's important that you're aware of this going into things. It can take years to build up your catalog, create connections and get things going to the point where you're making substantial income. Keep this in mind as you're getting started. Be persistent, but also patient.
Today's Assignment:
Today's assignment is really an ongoing assignment. It's a mindset and habit that you need to cultivate. You need to get in the habit of pitching your music on a daily basis. You need to get in the habit of writing and recording new music on a regular basis. You need to get in the habit of developing new contacts and connections in the industry. There are things you can do every single day, to move your career forward. This program make it easy, because I'm giving you leads and videos to watch. You have everything laid out for you. But what else can you do today, right now, that would move your career forward? What phone call could you make? What email could you send? Is there somewhere you could send your music that you've been holding off on? Get in the habit of taking action, every single day. Today's assignment is to pick one new thing, in addition to today's leads, that you can do today that will potentially move your career forward. Maybe you can submit your music to an additional lead by going through the contact info included in the bonus material. Maybe you can spend some time researching new companies you could submit your music to. Maybe you can spend some time recording new material. It's up to you, but pick one extra thing to do today and do it!
Today's Video Tutorial:
Today's video tutorial is about how to stay motivated when you're first starting out in the licensing industry. It can be challenging to stay motivated in the beginning and in this video I break down my strategy for staying motivated and positive.
