S.I.M.P.L.E. Newsletter Episode 1

If you’re receiving this, it’s because you’re part of the P.LAB Family, which means you. are. my. people. πŸ™πŸ»

 

So I thought it’d be cool to do a “newsletter” every month to let you know what’s cookin’ over here in both mine and the P.LAB. world.

 

You are reading the first official issue of our S.I.M.P.L.E. Newsletter. πŸ“°

 

This is not to be confused with our world-famous S.I.M.P.L.E. Method Training. Rather, this S.I.M.P.L.E Newsletter is built to give all the behind-the-scenes goodness with me, the team, the students, and more.

 

Here's how it breaks down!

 

** Story Inspiration Music Plab Laugh Educate **

 

So, let's dive in, shall we?

 

Story Time!

 

As many of you know, there have been a ton of new changes in my life personally over the past few months.

 

I recently got engaged to the love of my life Jeff, and we JUST bought our first home together in Arizona!





It's been a hectic few weeks of boxing and unboxing, (not to mention the mosquitos here seem to think I'm a human blood bank πŸ₯΄πŸΉ), but we really couldn't be happier with the home and we are very excited for this next chapter in our lives.




 

The only downside is that…welp…poor Jeff is allergic to the cats 🀧 

 

And I’m not talking “itchy eyes and mild discomfort”, I’m talking full blown can’t breathe and can’t even OPEN his eyes after exposure… SO…

 

We are renovating the garage to be not only my new music studio, but it will also be the new “catsita” (see what I did there 😏😼)

 

So for now, my cats are living with a local cat sitter (who happens to be amazing, AND a vet tech) and I am missing them immensely. (Let’s be real, if logistics allowed it, I would probably have like 30 cats by now πŸ€ͺ)

 

So I am anxiously counting down the days till I’m reunited with them.



 

But my cat love aside, it has been a really wonderful experience moving into a brand new home and getting to decorate, and renovate, and play marco polo from opposite sides of the house.  #adulting

 

Daily Dose Of INSPO

 

I was chatting with one of our team members today, and he was telling me about how he was struggling to keep up with all of the freelance work he was getting as a producer.

 

He said it was a good problem to have and how a few months ago, he couldn't have even dreamed of having this much work, but he was starting to get overwhelmed by the demand of it all.

 

We chatted a lot about it and I shared a quote with him that we both really loved, so I thought I'd share it with you too.

 

Check this out:

 

"Overwhelm is just an abundance of the thing you wanted."

 

Isn't that awesome?

 

Too stressed that you have too many projects on your plate right now?

 

There was once a time where you WISHED you had projects to balance! :)

 

Doesn't that take your brain from a place of panic and stress and root it in a place of gratitude?

 

I’ve been keeping that one top of mind lately and it’s been really great for giving me some clarity and perspective

 

Music Recommendation

 

I love getting a good music recommendation, so I thought in every newsletter, I'd include what I've personally been putting on repeat lately.

 

For me, I love Lo-Fi hip hop. One of the reasons for that is because so much Lo-Fi stuff incorporates one of my other loves, which is jazz standards. I grew up living with my great-grandma, and because of her I lived and breathed (and sung) jazz standards and big band music from about 1 to 10 years old.

 

Me singing and dancing to showtunes in the living room at great grams house

 

Since work has been full tilt lately, one of my productivity hacks has been finding the perfect low-fi Spotify playlist, putting on some headphones and just dialing in the workflow.

 

If that sounds up your alley, you can check out my fave playlist for yourself here:

P.LAB Spotlight

 

In this section, I’ll be letting you know all the latest and greatest coming out of P.LAB and what some of our awesome students have been up to lately.

 

For this newsletter, I wanted to highlight one of our rockstar students Kaityln.

 

As a coach, there's nothing more I love than giving "Ah-HA's" πŸ’‘

 

It has been such an honor to witness such a MASSIVE transformation with Kaitlyn from Dream Queen Music.

 

Kaitlyn already came into our world with insane drive and determination, and now she has the FOCUS and GAME PLAN to pursue her musical goals.

 

Check out her mini-documentary below:

LAUGH

 

This section's pretty simple. If it made me laugh, I'm gonna share it with you

 

This one got me good recently 🀣

I’m reallllllly trying not to chase a shiny ball here, but I think I may need to purchase a new toy.   What do you think?

 

Education Station

 

The core of what we do here at produce like a boss is simplify and demystify music production. I can't tell you how many times when I was learning how to produce that I would tumble down a YouTube rabbit hole desperately searching for answers.

 

That's why I'm so proud of our carefully curated Youtube Channel, which is jam-packed with all killer no filler tutorials.

 

In every newsletter, we'll be highlighting a new training that we think you might enjoy.

 

Today’s one of my faves. For anyone out there who hasn't dipped their toe into the world of samples, here is a full walkthrough I did of SPLICE.

 

Best part about Splice?  You don’t even need to play an instrument to produce music.

That’s all for now :)

 

I hope you enjoyed me peeling back the curtain a bit, I’m excited to keep you posted with the latest!

S.I.M.P.L.E. Newsletter Episode 2

Firstly, I gotta say, I was blown away by the response to the first newsletter! I love getting up close and personal, and I appreciate the feedback which was, “Kris, we want more of this!!”

Sooooo we’re keeping the party going with our second monthly issue! πŸ“°

Here's how the S.I.M.P.L.E. Newsletter breaks down!

** Story. Inspiration. Music. Plab. Laugh. Educate **

Story Time!

Last month I mentioned Jeff and I just bought a home in Arizona, which we love.   

So far, Arizona has taught me two things. 

  1. Arizona is the hottest place on earth πŸ₯΅
  2. Kris Bradley is most definitely an indoor cat…. 

Ok, truth time, here we go…

I’m more of an indoorsy gal.  I want to be outdoorsy, but it’s just not in the cards for me.   

I’d say the extent of my outdoorsy-ness is loving the ocean.  But the second you throw bugs, dirt, and the idea of being attacked by a bear at me, I turn into a big ol’ πŸ‘ΆπŸ»πŸ˜‚

Which is why I’m SO thankful there were NO cameras or phones nearby when I went on my first “night hike/float” on the AZ salt river. πŸ™ˆ

Between the pitch blackness, the low humming bullfrogs, the screeching cicadas (which sounded like Predator hiding in the bushes) and the rapids which flung my donut tube into nearby branches that nearly took my head off…I felt like the whole thing was a near death experience.  Of course there were several children involved who were having a blast on their stand-up paddleboards, which just highlighted my princessery even more. πŸ˜…πŸ‘ΈπŸ»

But hey, at least it was with Jeff’s fancy doctor colleagues and business partners, so #greatfirstimpression 

It’s ok.  I’m good at a lot of things. Indoorsy things.

I also mentioned we’re building a “catsita” which will be the new studio, AND a place for the cats since Jeff is allergic.  Problem is, the contractor kept upping the budget (like 5 times the amount from where we started), and it started to feel shady, so we’re thinking of going with a different contractor.  Know anyone who does renovations in AZ? 

In the meanwhile, the cats are loving their cat sitter and catio, and they’ve even made some new furless friends!

Rachel -“Her name is Mrs. Whiskerson…”
Ross - “It looks like a hand!” 

In other news, we just wrapped the new masterclass “Home Studio Recording Simplified,” and welcomed over 50 new students into From Voice Memo 2 Demo, and we’re so excited to welcome them to the P.LAB family!  I was super proud of this presentation because it really broke down music production from a high level, without confusing my new budding producers with DAW overwhelm, just giving them the basics to understand what music production is.

Ooooh and one more thing, because I can’t keep it a secret any longer!  We are working on a Produce Like a Boss BOOK this summer, and I cannot wait to share not only the book with you, but the journey along the way!  

This book will be a combination of my stories, and steps along the way to becoming a pro producer, as well as some juicy strategic “how to’s” that will help you do the same.

I’m a total bookworm, but I’ve never attempted to write a book, so I’m excited for what lies ahead!  πŸ“šπŸ€“

Daily Dose Of INSPO

“A Jack of all trades is a master of none, 

but often times better than a master of one”

As many of you know, I’m a huge advocate of skill stacking. 

While many would say that it’s not good to be a jack of all trades, I totally disagree.  

I think the more skills you have, the more value you add to yourself.  

Think about it… who can provide more value for a client?

The most skilled guitar player who focuses on shredding and learning all of the scales and modes, but only plays in his bedroom alone?

…or the guitarist that can also sing, and also knows how to promote themselves, write songs, and book gigs?

Where I think people get tripped up is they think they have to learn how to do ALLLLL the things at once, and that is a recipe for disaster.  Imagine trying to learn Japanese, French, and German all at the same time?!  

In order to properly skill stack, you have to master one thing at a time, then add the next skill.

The best way to describe it is the way a drummer learns to play the drums.  First, he starts with the hi hats…

Wait.  This would be much better explained if I show you.  Watch this πŸ‘‡πŸ»

 https://www.instagram.com/p/CfZnnAOhSOY/

So, to recap, being a generalist means you’re adept and versatile at many things,

but while you’re building those skills, become a part-time expert to master each skill first.   

 

Music Recommendation

This month I’ve been realllllly feelin’ this French Jazz playlist on Spotify.

You’ll hear anything from Edith Pilaf, to Melody Gardot, to Madeleine Peyroux, to Ella Fitzgerald.

Words cannot describe how “at home” my heart feels when I listen to this style of music… whether it’s big band, jazz, swing, gypsy jazz, or ragtime, I just feel this nostalgic buzz all over my body when it’s playing (it also makes me feel “fancy” πŸ˜‚) … almost like I’m remembering a past life...  Call me an old soul ;)


P.LAB Spotlight 

This month there are two rockstar students that I had to let you know about. 

Starting with the P.LAB Producer Of The Month, Johnny Walker.

Johnny is, hands down, one of the BIGGEST action takers I've ever seen. πŸƒπŸ»‍♂️

He not only applies what he learns immediately, but he also BUILDS on it and makes it even BETTER. Watching his growth over the last couple of years has been nothing short of a jaw-dropper and uber inspiring!! 

From beat licensing to content creation, to expanding his client base as a producer to teaching others how to play guitar, Johnny is on fi-Ya and not slowing down! 

You can learn more about him by checking out this mini-documentary we made on his story.

And you can check out what Johnny’s been up to below πŸ‘‡πŸ»

https://www.johnnywalkerguitar.com

I also wanted to take a second to share the outrageous success of another P.LAB Student, Aoife O’Leary!

I first met Aoife a couple years ago when she was just learning how to produce her own music. She dove head first into From Voice Memo 2 Demo, then into our other programs, and has leveled up as a producer tremendously!  I've always been blown away by her talent, determination, passion, and infectious energy!

We just celebrated her graduation from "Home Studio Boss VIP", and the latest news is that she's just landed 3 of her songs in a movie called “Code Name Banshee” featuring Antontio Banderas! πŸ₯³πŸ˜²πŸ€―

Anybody else have a major crush on him after watching Mask of Zorro? Just me? 😝

She actually co-wrote two of the three songs with another member of Home Studio Boss VIP, Danny Hines, and they met in our Collab Lab! (a collaborating system we have specifically for students)

Not only that, she’s been hired to score another movie. (She’s even getting to hang out on set with the actors and writers, how cool is that?!)  #thisgirlisonfire

To say I’m proud is an understatement.😊

You can learn more about Aoife by checking out this mini-documentary we made on her story.

And you can head over to https://www.poppymoth.com/ to see what Aofie’s got cookin. 

LAUGH 

Ok, this video had me on the floor, and I immediately sent it to our entire team 🀣 I just love the creativity and playfulness that went into this.  If you’ve seen the original video of that little boy, it’s even better πŸ˜‚

Education Station

As I said last month, the core of what we do here at produce like a boss is to simplify and demystify music production. 

So every month, we're going to highlight one of our free resources that we think might help you on your journey in home production. 

Today is another one of my faves. This is the walkthrough I did of "ARCADE," and it is one of our top-performing videos on our youtube channel.

If you're looking to upgrade your production game, this is a great resource to add to your toolbelt.

I hope you enjoyed me peeling back the curtain once again, and I'm excited to keep you posted with everything else that's coming down the pipeline!

Also, if you enjoyed this type of content and have other news you'd like to know about, please just hit reply and let me know! I love hearing from the community.πŸ€—

Your Coach and #1 Fan XO,

S.I.M.P.L.E. Newsletter Episode 3

I know I said this last month, but I am just so blown away by the response to this newsletter.  

So, if you’re brand new to this super formal and totally planned out piece of editorial journalism, πŸ™ƒ … here’s how it breaks down. πŸ“°

The S.I.M.P.L.E. Newsletter is an acronym for

** Story. Inspiration. Music. Plab. Laugh. Educate **

Story Time! 

First things first, let’s catch up on this garage renovation for the new studio, aka, the “catsita”...  (for the previous story leading up to this, check out Newsletters 1 & 2

I’ve searched far and wide to find a new contractor who could provide a realistic quote - which turned out to be about as easy as finding a black cat in a coal cellar (a cat I would most likely go on to adopt) but I am happy to report we’ve found someone and scheduled work to begin on August 25th, and it should take about 9-14 days! 

This also means the cats will be returning from their temporary home and moving into the new studio, which I could not be happier about!

Oh…and btw, did I mention their catsitter got them haircuts?

Oh.my.heart 😍

In other news, I’ve started working with a health coach and have been LOVING it.  

I was always a relatively healthy person, but I gotta tell ya, I hated working out. 

Like I could not wrap my head around this whole  “pick it up just to put it back down” nonsense, ya know what I mean? πŸ˜‚ 

But I found a coach that I just vibe with, joined the counting calories club, and have honestly been feeling amazing 🀩 I’m already down 3 pounds in week 1, not starving, and working out daily.  It’s amazing how powerful setting intention and having accountability can be.  Not only that, my coach makes me customized affirmations based on my personal goals which I listen to every morning, and I have to say this is a gamechanger.

On the business side of things, we’ve also welcomed a new team member to the P.LAB family this month! Our new Executive Assistant Nicole is an absolute rockstar, and is already helping to streamline our business!

It’s been such an incredible journey building Produce Like a Boss over the last few years, but I gotta say, I was getting caught up in the day to day stuff way too much (managing the team, building systems and processes, budgets, spreadsheets, dealing with tech etc.), and it wasn’t allowing me to work on the only thing I should be doing in this business, which is creating the courses and content (speaking of new content… I want you to be the first to know that we have a sync course and a time management for musicians course coming soon… the word “pumped” is an understatement )

Daily Dose Of INSPO 

So Team P.LAB and I have recently started working with a new business coach as we scale into some new and exciting territory as a company. (Believe it or not, building a business does not come with a book of instructions 😜)  They have been flooding the halls of our offices (virtual, zoom-based offices, but still) with some very welcomed peaceful business energy. 🧘🏻‍♀️

If you’re familiar with my “vibe”, I can be very full throttle, and fast paced.  It’s just how I’m wired.  

Me before every zoom call

I often talk about the difference between masculine and feminine energy (not to be confused with genders) but rather just energetic characteristics, and I tend to work more in my masculine energy (assertiveness, boldness, risk-taking, structured) when it comes to business, and I’ve been really focused on trying to bring in some more feminine energy (creative, nurturing, receiving, intuitive).  So it’s been very enjoyable to inject a bit more of that calming and reserved feminine energy into the business. 😌

In our business, this looks like more nurturing, consistency, less chaos, and more clarity on where we’re going and what path we’re laying out for our students to get to their success even faster.  

So on that note,  I wanted to share one of my big takeaways from my new coach.

I think this is so applicable to what we teach at P.LAB when it comes to music production and entrepreneurship.

I can’t tell you how many conversations I’ve had with musicians trying to learn production who think they need to focus on honing in their guitar chops, or becoming a sound designer, rather than focusing on their zone of genius,  and learning to outsource the rest…. 

Or producers who think they can’t start their music production business until they register as an LLC.  🀦🏻‍♀️  

It’s so easy to get pulled in the wrong direction and start tumbling down a rabbit hole of things that don’t actually move the needle towards your goals.

And that’s why I have a coach for every area of my life.  

I have a leadership coach, a business and strategy coach, a spiritual coach, and now a health coach.  A great coach can spot your blind spots, and help you correct course when you’re going off track.   

So, if anything this inspiration section should just serve as a friendly reminder to  

Lean On Your Coach. 

Even the top performers in the world have coaches, and the best investment you can ever make is in yourself.   

Music Recommendation

Forget sliding into your DM’s… I wanna be sneaking onto your playlist.πŸ˜‰

So we’re back with another month of music recommendations. 

This month I have been taking a trip down memory lane and revisiting some of the older projects I worked on… I’ve been in such “go go go - masculine - energy” that I haven’t stopped to really enjoy the work I’ve put out.  

You may not know this about me but I absolutely love the genre “Trip Hop”.  (Remember bands like Portis Head and Morcheeba?).  So I worked on this passion project “SideTrip” with a couple of my favorite collaborators Justin Merill and Stelle Amor.

Let me know what you think… Stelle and I split the vocals, so she’s singing on some, and I’m singing on some.  Can you guess who’s who? (a lot of people can’t!)

P.LAB Spotlight 

Soo…. we have some awesome news.

This September we’ll be opening the doors once again to our Home Studio Boss VIP Program and, we’ve actually just partnered with a 3rd party funding company to help any student who might need assistance with funding their tuition.

So I thought I’d take this opportunity to highlight some of our rockstar students…


 “I just got asked, by two major Grammy winning producers for different projects, to record vocals. And the fact that I can sing, write and produce from my own home studio is a major reason I am able to book these jobs! Thank you Ben Clarke and Kris Bradley for your badassery!!!!”
- Carmel Helene


“I am so proud of how far I've come since being in Home Studio Boss and all the other courses I've purchased from y'all. I have hired a VA, did my first custom song for a client, and have my first single scheduled for release on streaming platforms for January.”
- Jamey W


“I have 3 clients simultaneously and I am just floating πŸ’•♥ Kris THANK YOU. 

HSB is truly magical. I'm doing the things and it's working, even at my slow and steady pace.”
-
Katie D 


Seeing these types of results for our students is rewarding in a way I truly can’t express. 

If you’d like to apply to join us in VIP, simply email [email protected] to start the application process.

Laugh

Ok, so Jeff and I can’t get enough of this couple on TikTok, and this one rings SO true.. (ladies, am I right?!)

Education Station

And of course, it wouldn’t be a simple newsletter without dropping some knowledge bombs, so today I wanted to share: 

The TOP 5 mistakes you're making as a freelance music producer.

If you’re a musician, and you’re trying to get work as a remote session player, producer, singer, or instrumentalist, then this video is for you.   

There are TONS of places you can make money online if you can record from home, but it isn’t as easy as firing up your laptop, making some musical magic, and collecting a check. 

In order to really prosper in these online markets, you have to have repeatable systems in place and proper marketing materials. 

I cover it all in the short video below:

That’s all for now, but if you enjoyed this peek behind the scenes of what we’re doing at P.LAB hit that reply button and let us know!

We’re really people over here and actually check out email. So we’d love to hear from you!

S.I.M.P.L.E. Newsletter Episode 4

I missed you!

I'm sorry we weren't able to get an issue of the newsletter out to you last month, but that just means this issue is going to jam-packed with twice as much awesome!  

The team and I have been working so hard in the halls of P.LAB, and it is taking all of my energy not to spoil all the exciting things we have coming down the pipeline. (I'm also bad at giving Christmas gifts for this same reason πŸ™ƒ 🎁) 

But before we get into it, just a reminder for anyone who needs it. 

The S.I.M.P.L.E. Newsletter is an acronym for

** Story. Inspiration. Music. Plab. Laugh. Educate **

Story Time!

First things first, I wanted to give a quick update on the new studio. It is SO close to being finished, and as we speak the carpenter is putting in a wall-to-wall BRIGHT yellow bookcase as the finishing touch to the space. I've wanted a space for my collection of books for so long, and you know A-Type KB gonna color block the hell outta it 🌈  

The studio should be all set up this month, and I couldn't be happier about it. That also means I will be reunited with my fur family, and the cats will be leaving their temporary home and moving into the new catsita!

In other news, I decided it was time to shake things up and pair all the new and exciting changes in P.LAB with a new look! 

You mayyyy have noticed that I've spent the last three years rocking my LA hat in nearly EVERY pic that I've ever posted (go Dodgers!)

But recently, I decided to go RED to shake things up and do something new. The biggest compliment I’ve gotten on this so far is “Kris, I think you found your hair identityπŸ˜‚”

(Don't worry, for those of you who hate change, the hat lives on, and I'm sure it will still be making some appearances, it's just no longer glued to my head 😜) 

I feel like the red matches the fire and passion I feel in my soul πŸ”₯

And finally, just a few weeks ago, I got to meet our brand manager Patrick IN THA FLESH for the first time!!  Matter of fact, I got to meet a handful of friends and clients I had only seen on zoom for the past couple of years and it was epic!! 

We all rallied in Orlando, Florida for our shared love of marketing and business and attended the annual marketing conference “Funnel Hacking Live” 

I absolutely love going to business conferences like this, not only for the strategies that are shared, but for the amazing mindset shifts that occur when you’re around a bunch of successful people sharing their stories.  The speakers were TOP notch, from Brendon Burchard, to Ed Mylett (who made me cry like a baby), to Marie Forleo, the mic drops were literally off the charts!  

I remember when I went to my first Funnel Hacking Live in 2020, it changed my life forever. It opened my eyes to new possibilities for my business, and it was the first time I saw somebody receive a “2 Comma Club Award” - which is the award they give entrepreneurs that generate 1 million dollars of revenue in their business.  I watched with tears of inspiration in my eyes as each entrepreneur was presented the award on stage and took their pictures with Russel and Todd (the guys behind Clickfunnels who put on the conference) and I thought to myself “That’s going to be me.  I’m going to get that award”.   I had no idea how, I just knew that seeing others achieve this showed me that it was possible. 

And wouldn’t ya know, this year I got to walk that stage, and receive my “2 Comma Club Award”.

And something I realized during this entire conference was, while it felt realllllly good to get this award, the reward wasn’t actually hitting the goal.  It was about the person I had to become to achieve it.  

I’m going to say that again..

So my big takeaway from the entire conference was that it’s in the pursuit of our desires that we will become who we need to be.

I had no idea how I was going to generate a million dollars!  And that didn’t matter!  I figured it out!  

Cuz here’s the deal…

If you only have dreams that align with what you already know HOW to do, you’ll never grow. It’s the BIG dreams, and the MOONSHOT goals that force your mind and your soul to EXPAND and get CREATIVE and figure it out!

Not to drop a double “Ah-ha”, but there’s one more.

Receiving the award didn’t actually feel any better than wanting it did.  There was no “arrival”, now I want the 2CCX award for hitting 8 figures, the goal post just gets pushed back which MEANS..

The joy is truly in the journey my friends…

And I know you’ve heard that before. Heck, I’ve SAID that before.  But it was on this trip that I truly understood manifestation at an entirely new level.   

We only want the things we want because we think it’ll make us happy.  But the truth is, happiness comes first.  Chasing the dream IS living the dream, not a means to an end.

So… as if seeing Patrick and the gang, and getting my 2 Comma Club Award wasn’t enough, I also ran into my good friend Adam Ivy of Sell Music Masterclass!

And we may or may not have planned something totally amazing that you can find out all about if you keep reading… πŸ€“

Daily Dose Of INSPO

Alright y'all, check this one out. I got this one from our new business coach.

Really one of the founding pillars at Produce Like A Boss is the idea of showing people the truth of the music industry and how to achieve real success as a musician, no matter how "unsexy" that truth might be…

…whether it's opening people's eyes to the reality that it takes a quarter of a million streams to make a thousand dollars on Spotify or that you actually can create commercial quality recordings without expensive gear or years of music school training, we hold nothing back at P.LAB because I want you to have the TRUTH. 

(not that I need to tell you any of this, I mean, if you're reading this, then we know you've already been unplugged from the Matrix 😎) 

But the truth is that so many talented musicians are stuck following this old music industry model, chasing vanity metrics and shiny record deals. 

So, if you, my fellow member of P.LAB Nation, are ever doing some late-night scrollingπŸ“± and getting frustrated by comparisonitis or all of the overnight success formulas as out there,

Remember, you are on the right path, stay the course because you know the truth, and no amount of vanity metrics or social media posts can take that away from ya! πŸ˜‰

Music Recommendation

This month I’ve been listening to a lot of GYPSY Jazz!!  Especially Django Reinhardt!  This kinda goes hand in hand for my love of the French Cafe playlist, and Edith Piaf.  I can’t help it, it feels like going home when I listen to this style of music.  I’m convinced I lived a past life in the roaring 20’s.

P.LAB Spotlight  

In the last newsletter, I mentioned that we'd be opening the doors to our Home Studio Boss VIP Program soon, and it has been so awesome to see the response. people have had. We just had our first hot seat coaching call a few days ago, and I just left on FIRE getting to answer people’s questions and help them plan out their next steps in their music careers.  hearing everyone's questions and watching people build out their careers. 

So on that note, I thought I'd take a second and share a couple of wins that our recent grads have been getting!

I say this all the time, but the only thing I love more than getting an "ah-ha" is giving one. To see these students getting such incredible results is a feeling I can't even begin to express!

If you'd like to see if Home Studio Boss might be a good fit for you, book a call with one of our team members anytime. 

https://www.producelikeaboss.com/call

Speaking of Home Studio Boss VIP rockstars, our PRODUCER OF THE MONTH award goes to Claire Holdich!!

Claire has been on FIRE with her career ever since she graduated VIP, and she keeps upleveling her skills as a producer everyday!  She recently used a VIP homework assignment to get hired for an underscoring job! 

She's a great example of what hard work and determination look like for a home studio Boss, and we absolutely love having her in this community.

Alright, I won't leave you in suspense any longer. I teased at the top of this that Adam Ivy and I were cooking up something pretty cool, so here's the dealio.  

We have put together the most badass three-day challenge on this side of the solar system.πŸͺ  

From October 19th - 21st, we will be going LIVE once a day at 4pm PT to teach you our brand new framework for navigating the new music industry and how to build a holistic career as a musician that supports both yourself as an artist and a producer!

With Adam's insight on how to properly grow a sustainable and viable artist career,  and my insight on how to build a business as a producer, we're able to provide the best of both worlds.  

Together, we’re going to show you how to use the back-end industry to propel your artist career by making calculated and intentional career decisions.

Yall, I'm gonna be real; I've been losing sleep over this one because I'm so excited!  πŸ˜… 

And best of all, this three-day party is FREE to attend. So if you'd like to join us, all you have to do is click the link below to reserve your spot!

You guys, you are not going to want to miss this training.  Adam is one of my favorite content creators out there, and while my specialty has been more on the back end and custom jobs for clients, Adam is actually going to show you what it takes to build a successful artist career.  

Alright, that wraps up our S.I.M.P.L.E. newsletter this month!!  

I can’t wait to show you the new studio… ahem, “catsita” next month, woo hoo! πŸ₯³
