Summary

There are many roads to the top in the music industry after this was realised after starting Creating Tomorrow Recording in 2010. I was able to experience the 1st hand trials and tribulations of executives trying to break artist as well as the artist trying to make it to the top. Through determination I was still able to find a niche in the industry and build powerful relationships not only in my hometown of Tampa, but i have created a relationship pipeline throughout Florida, Georgia, and Texas to name a few. After learning that marketing and promotion are KEY in the music industry, I was able to create a clothing and shoe brand from the ground up, that i was able to use to market and promote artist in an different industry. To date I have sold over 2300 pairs and they are sold in Brick and Mortar stores. I will look at different social-media avenues we could grow each artist as well because the industry is changing to a more video based platform. I'm a very motivated employee with desire to take on new challenges. Strong worth ethic, adaptability and exceptional interpersonal skills. Adept at working effectively unsupervised and quickly mastering new skills. I will teach artist different ways to manage time and money while getting the maximum out of both aspects. I will teach artist the behind the scenes difficulties of the industry, i have found that this make the artist appreciate the business more as well as giving them a respect for the behind the scene processes.
