Dear Fellow Musician:

You are a talented musician, and I know you'd like to see the rewards for using your talent. What's your goal? Supporting yourself and family? Riches beyond the dreams of all the naysayers in your life? Fame? Fortune? Whatever your dreams are, know this: A lot of other people are dreaming those dreams too -- and they WILL do it on YOUR back if you don't take control of your music business! But keep reading; you've come to the right place to get what you need!

Hello, this is Deeann D. Mathews.

I am a composer, arranger, pianist, author and music businesswoman; I'm also the Creative Director of Praising Pilgrims Music, a music and book publishing company of California. In that mode, I have been able to give advice and guidance to hundreds of musicians who are pursuing their careers, a work I enjoy very deeply. And because my heart is in it, and because I am a musician in my own right, that's why the problems that you are facing just break my heart!

Music Is Easy -- Handling Your Business Is Hard

I know how it feels to have that first breakout song... and have that sickening anxiety in the pit of my stomach because of worrying someone may steal it. I know how it feels to be frustrated in putting together projects and trying to get the proper permissions. I know what it is to be overwhelmed by the "legalese" in that very first industry contract, and the terrible pressure to "just sign here" without quite understanding what I was getting myself into.

I've had the near-heart-stopping experience of turning on the television and hearing a motif I used in a composition showing up in somebody else's song -- or the sickening feeling of getting a phone call letting me know how wonderful my performance was on Channel X when I didn't even know I was going to be on Channel X. I've been there. And, I've seen musicians just like you face those same issues.

This is why I put together The Freedom Guide for Music Creators, 2nd Edition -- 87 pages of the music business basics you need, stripped of complicated language and legal jargon, containing the need-to-know facts about sampling, licensing, record contracts, the music industry, helpful organizations and opportunities -- and what you need to do and CAN DO RIGHT NOW to take control of your music business.

The Freedom Guide for Music Creators -- Freedom For Your Music Business
Let's Start With Freedom from Fear

One thing that paralyzes many musicians and holds them back is the fear that their music will be stolen -- that someone else will get the credit (and profit) from their creation. That's why Chapter 1 of the Freedom Guide for Music Creators begins with copyright -- what it is, why it is important, and what YOU can do with the knowledge to protect your work. NOW. Step by step. Action by action. If you can read and follow instructions, you can have the fundamental protections for your music in place by the end of the first chapter. How's that for freedom from fear -- if you are a composer, lyricist, songwriter, or arranger, The Freedom Guide for Music Creators can end your worst nightmare RIGHT NOW!

Here's another common problem: Many musicians are also afraid to collaborate with other musicians because of the fear that their partners will take advantage of them -- but, also in Chapter 1, the Freedom Guide for Music Creators shows you the step-by-step process you need to take RIGHT NOW to protect yourself and your co-writers and other collaborators -- not only in terms of who gets paid what, but in terms of keeping the collaboration from descending into chaos. So much for another nightmare!

And that's just Chapter 1! Imagine what your comfort, confidence, and competence level will be at the end of reading The Freedom Guide for Music Creators!

What's in The Freedom Guide for Music Creators For YOU

The Freedom Guide for Music Creators is jam-packed with need-to-know information for every musician -- new and expanded for the second edition! You will learn:

How to get each and every one of your works the copyright registration they need at the lowest possible cost -- AND the address and contact info of EVERY copyright office IN THE WORLD!
The ONE document you need to have to make sure you and your co-writers know what each of you owns in every song BEFORE the money ever starts to roll in!

And much, much more!

"Now, the Big Question... Show Me the Money!"

I know, I know -- "Just how much is this going to cost me?" I always am asking this by the time I get to this point in the sales page too...

I could very easily charge you the costs of all the big "legalese" books you won't have to read rolled into one -- the research and development hours that went into The Freedom Guide of Music Creators are worth that much and more, as are the thousands and thousands of dollars and hours you are going to be saved FOR THE REST OF YOUR CAREER.

I could also charge you the cost of one, two or more music business and mass communication law classes you'd have to take to get the information in this book. I could also charge you -- at the least -- what it would cost you an hour to see a lawyer in the entertainment business. That's around $250 ...

BUT...

You're Going to Get All That for $27...
Yes, That's Right, $27
Read it Just One More Time:
$27

I know, I know, "What's the catch?"

There is no catch, only two facts:

1. The Freedom Guide for Music Creators is a digital download, and I have no printing costs to absorb.

2. I am more concerned that the information in The Freedom Guide get to every musician that needs it than I am about getting rich on every sale.

I'm tired of hearing the stories of musicians who are being taken advantage of -- I'm tired of seeing talented people turn away from the field that they love in bitterness and discouragement. I'm tired of talking to musicians who are sitting on the most beautiful music the world HAS NEVER HEARD because they are still too traumatized -- decades later -- by someone who stole from them. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired of watching fellow musicians suffer for not handling their business -- so I've priced The Freedom Guide for Music Creators so that anyone can get it and use it.

So Get It and Use It -- Order Now!

Need I say more -- take control of your music business NOW with the Freedom Guide for Music Creators!

"Sure, It All Sounds Great, But I Can Do It Myself And Save $27"
Sure You Can ... But Trial And Error Can Be VERY Costly

Look, we both know you're smart -- yes, you could go out and do the hundreds and hundreds of hours of research and experience and preparation that went into The Freedom Guide for Music Creators. You could learn about how to handle your copyrights, collaborations, sampling, and record contracts the right way, but it takes TIME, time you don't have unless you plan on sitting in your house and not doing anything with your music until you have all the music business knowledge you need. In the meantime...

How much longer do you want to endure the sickening fear over your music being stolen?

How much longer do you want to spend worrying about your co-writers and other collaborators doing you wrong?

How much longer do you want to spend wondering whether that copyright lawsuit (and they want hundreds and THOUSANDS of dollars per song if you don't have the right permissions) is right around the corner?

How long exactly do you want to be in debt to the record company when you can't make head or tail of your contracts -- and how much money do you want to spend paying lawyers who are going to give you just enough information to keep you coming back and paying more, and more, and more ... ?

Like I said, we both know you're smart, too smart to waste time and energy when the solution to your music business problems is The Freedom Guide for Music Creators. Go ahead and order right now. I know you'll be happy you did.

Sincerely,

Deeann D. Mathews
