Introducing
The Art of the Song Pitch
The Complete Step-by-Step Music Licensing Program That Connects You With The Right People In The Sync Industry
If you’re a songwriter looking to get massive exposure for your music without a label deal, and get paid thousands of dollars up front to do it - you need to connect with the right people in music licensing.
If you're here right now, it probably means you already KNOW that licensing is the easiest way to instantly get tons of new fans, make money with your music, and get noticed by the industry... all at the same time. The sync industry is globally worth over $350 million and growing very rapidly. There is no better time than now!
HERE'S WHAT YOU
MIGHT NOT KNOW
Even if you're lucky enough to have airplay on streaming services, profitable tours, and a good social following... licensing your music can:
-
BE A ROCK STAR WITHOUT TOURING
Once you get even one sync in a high profile TV show, movie, or ad, viewers will Shazam your music. This is how artists have hit the top of the charts with just a single sync placement. Suddenly you're on high rotation on radio, Spotify, Pandora... and then the labels can come knocking. -
MAKE YOU A GREAT LIVING WITH YOUR MUSIC
When you start licensing your music, you can start thinking about quitting your day job and working on your music full-time. Having that extra time can 10X the number of songs you submit and your income grows even further from there. -
WRITE AND RECORD FROM ANYWHERE
Gone are the days where you had to live in LA, New York, or Nashville. You can live in Paris and get your music synced in NYC. This happens all the time! -
BACKEND ROYALTIES
When you get your music placed in a show, movie, or ad, you get a lump of cash upfront called a "Sync Fee". As it airs over and over again, you get backend royalties which show up like clockwork from your Performance Rights Organization. -
SNOWBALLING SYNC PLACEMENTS
Once you get your first sync placement, the rest typically come faster and faster as you build your reputation in the industry. You don't call them... they start calling you!
START LICENSING MY MUSIC? I'M IN!
But where do I start?!
You have worked to write the perfect songs, and spent a lot of money in studios or time in your home studio producing and recording them. Your family, friends and fans love them and now it's time to get your music in front of a bigger audience. So far so good!
The thing is, you can't just take off on tour because maybe you have a family, a job, or you realize it just isn't sustainable. How do you even begin to get labels interested with music sales still dropping through the floor?
You finally decide to try and license your music to TV & film... GREAT IDEA! Instant money and massive exposure. You upload it to some big music libraries, sign with a sync agent, or pay to submit them to licensing sites. Maybe you even try cold emailing a few music supervisors... and... crickets.
So how do you actually connect with the right people in music licensing who can make it happen for you? They can't get back to your because they are overwhelmed by emails from millions of other musicians trying to get into their shows, movies, or ads. It is as hard as trying get the president of a major label to listen your songs. They almost always only get music from trusted sources.
Without being personally introduced to the music supervisors for TV & film with a clear step-by-step roadmap, songwriters just get lost in the noise. They don't realize it's all about who you know.
You have to connect with the RIGHT people in music licensing to make things happen for you.
Luckily for you, there are VERY FEW people out there doing it right.
Most likely your competitor's songs are sitting in big music libraries or sync agencies collecting dust, or they are paying someone to pitch their music without knowing if that's even happening or not.
AND THIS MEANS...
Even if you're late to the party, there is still time to turn things around (and get your music into TV & film).
That's where The Art of the Song Pitch comes in ...
So What Exactly is The Art of the Song Pitch?
I built the program with the help of music supervisors! I simply asked the ones I knew for all their inside secrets, tips and tricks to get indie music into their hands. Ten years later with countless sync placements in top networks and movie studios, I've turned it into a proven, 5-step program. It not only teaches you everything you need to know to get your music into TV & film, but connects you DIRECTLY to top music supervisors. You get to skip over the middlemen and build your own relationships with them.
The end result is a fast track to the top of the music licensing industry that instantly connects you with the people who work on the biggest shows, movies, and ads. No more getting lost in the noise!
The Art of the Song Pitch
is the ONLY program of its kind that…
CONNECTS YOU DIRECTLY WITH TOP MUSIC SUPERVISORS
No more flying to sync conferences where you're just one of a thousand faces. No more being lost in a sea of music in music libraries or sync agencies. Instead you'll meet music supervisors face-to-face LIVE online where they not only listen to your music for sync opportunities, you can form lasting relationships with them.
SHOWS YOU STEP-BY-STEP HOW TO KEEP GETTING SYNCS
You don't just want one sync placement... you want to keep getting them over and over again! I've coached indie songwriters who make 6-figures a year from their music by continuously having their songs placed in new shows, movies, and ads.
HAS SO MANY BEHIND-THE-SCENES INTERVIEWS FROM EXPERTS
You not only learn from my 15+ years of experience in the industry, you get insider tips and tricks from the same folks at the top you'll be pitching to. There is nothing more valuable than hearing it straight from the people who license music every day.
HELPS YOU WITH THE DO'S AND DON'TS OF PRODUCING MUSIC FOR LICENSING
They say every song or piece of music is syncable. The truth is, the recording and production is an important part of your success. It’s not that you have to have the best sounding recording, but there are certain elements and approaches that work a lot better than others.
You'll learn the DOs and DON'Ts of producing or picking your existing songs for sync success.
SENDS YOU TOP SYNC OPPORTUNITIES IN YOUR STYLE
You get real briefs from real music supervisors! If you see a brief out in public, chances are it isn’t real or it has long past. Music supervisors only send briefs to their trusted sources. The ones you get are not only actual ones and happening right now, but all your music submissions will get heard!
Here's What's Included When You Join:
Module 1
Targeting Your Music
You need to send music supervisors what they are looking for and when they are looking for it. So many musicians fail by using a shotgun approach. By targeting your songs to particular sync opportunities you are helping the music supervisor do their job - which means your music ends up in their production. I show you the proven ways to target properly.
Module Highlights:
- Discover which opportunities your particular music is going to work for
- Learn how to find out what they need before they need it
- Hit the bullseye with your song submissions
Module 2
Songs That Work In Sync
Once you know how to target your music, you need to know which songs work best in licensing. It can make the difference between your music being just used by just a film student or a top network.
Module Highlights:
- How to pick the right songs or write your music for TV & film (if you decide you want to write for sync)
- The kinds of lyrics and music that work most often in sync
- A special insider technique to write songs that will work for any licensing opportunity
Module 3
Produce Your Music Like a Pro
Your songs are written and now it's time to record them. Believe it or not, music production is the easiest thing to fix for sync. It is the first thing a music supervisor hears when they hit play... Discover simple production tips & tricks so your song isn't rejected before it even has a chance.
Module Highlights:
- How to produce sync ready recordings at home
- Find out the critical things your music production has to have
- Get my personal affordable gear recommendations for your home studio
Module 4
Vetting Your Song Pitch
After everything is recorded, learn how to hit the bullseye with your song pitches. You unfortunately are not always the best judge of which of your songs will work in sync. Companies use surveys and focus groups to figure out what they are best at... so should you.
Module Highlights:
- Find out which songs of yours the viewing public (and music supervisors) will like best
- Learn how to quickly assemble and survey your own custom listening group
- Learn how to pick the perfect songs to submit to the music supervisors for their opportunities.
Module 5
How To Connect With The Right People In TV & Film
You are finally ready to get your music out there! The biggest thing that separates music licensing successes from failures, is getting your music into the right hands. No matter how good your music is, it won't go anywhere if you can't get it heard by the people that matter. It's about who you know.
Module Highlights:
- Meet and demo your music live online to my top music supervisor friends
- Form your first relationships at the top of the sync industry
- Get the perfect email pitch template to land syncs over and over again
Module 6
Know A Good Licensing Deal When You See One
When you land your first sync placement, you're going to be excited. That's great, but you don't want that to cloud your judgment when it comes to doing the deal. So before you pitch, you need to make sure you are getting paid what you deserve.
Module Highlights:
- Understand how to negotiate your deal. Learn what's important and what's not.
- Avoid being trapped in a deal with a library or agent without a way out.
- Find out the differences in what different opportunities pay.
Mini Modules
Cover Songs
We brought in a top music supervisor to talk about covers! What works and what doesn’t. Why they are good and what to watch out for if you decide to try and license one.
Music in Ads
This mini module will explain how getting music into ads works. They sure pay a lot of money, but it is more complicated and even more competitive.
Module 7
Your New Career
How to put everything you have learned into action. How to implement what you learned to move forward in the sync world with your new relationships with music supervisors.
Module Highlights:
- How to throw fuel on the fire and increase your reputation, your relationships in the licensing industry, and your sync placements.
After all the modules are complete....
Live Music Supervisor Pitch Sessions
This is where the magic starts. I introduce you to some of my top music supervisor friends. You will have 4 x face to face pitch sessions with 4 different gatekeepers who work on the top shows, movies, and ads. These aren't any music supervisors, these are ones who work on the biggest shows and movies. Relationships mean everything in the sync industry and this is where they happen!
In Addition...
-
Briefs (Sync Opportunities)
-
Inclusion to our Boutique Library (we don't take a cut of your songs or sync fees)
-
Bi-weekly coaching calls with me
-
Private Facebook Group
I didn't want to love and leave you with just the course modules, so every second week I do a live coaching call with the class where you can ask me any questions you have about the previous modules. I am known to stay until the very last question is answered, so it's like getting me one on one!
You are also included in our private Facebook group where you can meet other members of the class, and my team or I hop in and answer questions right in the group.
Highlights:
- You are included in our non-exclusive boutique music library so that when we receive other sync opportunities from music supervisors, we pitch your music. Again, we never take a cut of your songs.
- I hold your hand step-by-step through the modules with the coaching calls.
- Discover co-writers and make new friends in the private Facebook group.
THE 5 MYTHS KILLING YOUR SYNC SUCCESS
(and the way around them...)
Myth 1
YOU DON'T NEED CONNECTIONS
Sorry to say, this is not true in music licensing. There is the rare story of music being discovered, but that happens about as often as an eclipse. Music supervisors are human too and only have a certain amount of bandwidth every day. They just don't have time to go discover random new music and they can't possibly listen to all the tracks that get sent to them by publishers, labels, libraries, licensing agents... and indie musicians and songwriters.
It's CRITICAL you be introduced to them by a trusted source. That's how you get your foot in the door at the top to start making sync placements happen consistently.
Once they've heard and like your music, that is where the relationship starts and is when the magic happens!
Myth 2
THERE IS TOO MUCH COMPETITION
There are millions of songs out there vying for spots in TV & film. Does that mean your chances of getting a sync placement is 1 in MILLIONS?
That is a little like saying that your chances of going to the moon are 1 in 8 billion (the population of the earth)... BUT what if you've been trained as an astronaut? What are your odds then?
If you have the step-by-step process to get your music heard by the right people in music licensing and are being introduced DIRECTLY to them, then you're only competing against a miniscule percentage of all musicians out there.
Myth 3
MY MUSIC ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH
You don't have to be a genius songwriter to license your music, or even have the perfectly produced songs. Inside The Art of the Song Pitch you have everything you need to be licensing your music in weeks… no matter how "unready" you think you are.
You get mentoring by top songwriters, vocalists, and (yours truly) an award winning music producer. My 101 targeted training will whip you into shape so fast you’ll have pro tracks ready for TV & film in no time.
Myth 4
IT'S SUCH A MOUNTAIN TO CLIMB
Let me put this a different way... It's easy to forget that knowing how to play an instrument seems like magic to those who can't. They're thinking, "Wow! You must have some rare talent or it must have taken years to master." I'm sure it doesn't seem like such a big deal to you.
It's exactly the same in sync! Once you know how to connect with the right people in music licensing and establish those relationships, you'll wonder why you didn't start sooner!
Myth 5
I CAN'T FIND OPPORTUNITIES IN MY STYLE
Did you know that meditation music gets licensed all the time? Or the 5 tracks I helped get into the Golden Globe nominated film, Anora, were Jazz and Russian Hip Hop?
There is a spot for almost every kind of music out there. If you are in a smaller niche, then you are actually a big fish in a smaller pond. This means still plenty of sync opportunities but with a lot less competition.
Just always remember, there are music supervisors looking for your songs no matter the style. They just haven't heard it yet!

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions our top students asked before enrolling in
The Art of the Song Pitch...
No I can't, because I don't know you well enough yet. What I CAN guarantee is that 'The Art of the Song Pitch' works. You've already seen that from my past members. If you follow my steps exactly and put in the work, there is no reason that you can't be another one of my big success stories.
I am a "go big or go home" kind of guy. I didn't just want to teach you some things and then leave you by the side of the road. I decided to go all in and make a program that gets REAL results for my members. I am sure you can tell from the ones you've seen already, they are happy I did! Don't forget that even if you get one average sync this year, you'll have paid for the program and more.
You can, but in the vast majority of cases you just end up being a needle in a haystack (or paid very little). I can't count how many members I've coached who came from libraries or sync agencies because their music just collected dust for years. Success in sync comes from being proactive, not just hoping someone will discover your songs. All you need to do is follow the right steps to get there.
'In a nutshell... results. I have so many success stories from musicians who took 'The Art of the Song Pitch'. The biggest reason for this is, I put you in front of top music supervisors so you can form relationships with them! Second, you get real briefs from real supervisors. Third, I also add your music to our non-exclusive music library. When we receive private sync opportunities from music supervisors, we do the work for you and send in your songs for the right briefs (and we never take a cut of your songs or sync fees).
I just give you my connections! It's a the biggest part of the program. I also show you the specific steps for you to connect with other music supervisors, even if they don't know you yet. That's where my own custom music supervisor contact guide that I give you comes in handy.
'You get lifetime access. You can go back and review The Art of the Song Pitch' whenever you want.
Absolutely. Just have a look at my ironclad money back guarantee above. Basically you have 14 days to dive into the first two modules of the course and if you're not feeling what you learned can massively change your music career, I will refund you straight away.
7 Ways to Know You’re Ready to Achieve Success in Sync
- You are just getting started in music licensing and want to do it the right way
- You've been struggling with licensing your music and you want to fix it once and for all
- You are someone who likes to work smarter, not harder, and not just wait around to win the lottery
- You've already tried reaching out to music supervisors with no success or have had no luck with music libraries, sync agencies, or pay-to-submit sites
- You realize you have to connect with the right people in music licensing to make it happen
- You are excited to meet music supervisors face to face and get in at the very top
- You are ready to leapfrog over all the other musicians out there who aren't willing to take action
...I'm going to let you in on a little something
Even though music licensing is a MASSIVE and quickly growing industry... the vast majority of musicians completely fail in it.
A few of them get a HUGE piece of the pie, while most everyone else gets nothing.
The main reason for this, as you've likely seen by now, is the barriers to create and submit music are low, but the barriers to an ACTUAL SONG PLACEMENT are high.
As long as you can get your foot in the door in the industry and avoid the pitfalls that sink most would-be sync songwriters, the path is totally open to you to get your first song placements in TV & film.
This leads to instant massive exposure, a fantastic income to keep doing what you love to do, and it builds your reputation in the industry which leads to more and more sync placements for your music.
The key to all of this is being able to connect to the right people in TV & film!
This is something I've been helping indie musicians do successfully for over 15 years, and I want to help you do this too.
