MUSIC ROW ARTIST ADVISORY
$2,750/month
Help me execute the plan and make better decisions along the way.
The Music Row Artist Advisory is a private, ongoing strategic relationship for serious developing artists who want experienced guidance while building their career.
You are not simply receiving another written plan.
You have an experienced Music Row advisor helping evaluate decisions, establish priorities, review opportunities, identify potential problems, and adjust the strategy as the career develops.
Nashville Music Consultants works directly with the artist, family, and approved team members to help keep everyone focused on the right priorities.
Advisory Support May Include
Weekly private strategy meetings
Career priorities and accountability
Song selection and music readiness
Producer and recording decisions
Artist positioning and branding

Content and audience-development strategy
Marketing and promotional spending
Fan-development systems
Review of vendors and outside services
Team-building guidance
Review of industry opportunities
Communication with approved team members

Strategic introductions when appropriate and when the artist is ready
Every artist is different. The priorities of the Advisory are customized around the artist's music, goals, resources, opportunities, and stage of development.
The Outcome
Consistent experienced judgment behind the major decisions.
Instead of wondering:
Should we do this?
Should we hire them?
Should we spend money here?
Are we ready for this opportunity?
What should happen next?
You have a trusted advisor helping you make those decisions.
Investment
$2,750 per month
Three-month initial commitment.
Minimum initial engagement: $8,250
Following the initial three months, the Advisory may continue month-to-month by mutual agreement.
Third-party expenses for recording, production, musicians, photography, video, advertising, publicity, travel, distribution, websites, graphic design, and other outside services are not included.
Industry introductions, placements, opportunities, and commercial results cannot be guaranteed.
Before You Spend More, Make Sure You're Spending It in the Right Order.
A developing artist can easily spend thousands of dollars on recording, production, videos, promotion, advertising, publicity, and other services.
Some of those investments may make sense.
Some may be premature.
And some may not be necessary at all.
Before making the next major investment, it can be valuable to have someone independently evaluate where the artist actually stands and what deserves attention first.
That is the role of Nashville Music Consultants.
Why Nashville Music Consultants?
Experience matters most when a decision has consequences.
Clay Myers brings more than 40 years of Nashville music industry experience across music publishing, artist management, songwriter development, television production, talent booking, and Music Row career strategy.
That experience provides perspective on something developing artists frequently struggle to determine on their own:
What matters now, what can wait, and what may be a distraction.
Every recommendation is based on the artist's music, goals, resources, current stage, readiness, and willingness to do the work.
The goal is not to sell a dream.
The goal is to help artists and families understand what is real, what may be missing, what is worth investing in, and what steps make sense next.
