Title: How to Make it in the New Music Business
Author: Robert Wolff

1. In order for people to remember you, in order for people to call you and want what you have to offer, you've got to give them something unique. you can either play the music that other people write or write the music other people play.

2. The chances of your musical successes skyrocketing increases if you have a great sound. Create your own individual sound, a sound that identifies you.

3. It is vitally important that you protect your assets from people who are ready to rip them off.

4. Getting rich is not about how many gigs you play or hours you work. It's about you creating, owning, licensing and distributing the intellectual property and copyrights from your music.
