[without getting lost in the noise and hoping you'll be discovered one day]
The fact that you're here right now means that you probably already KNOW that licensing is the easiest way to make money with your music, explode your fanbase, and get noticed by the industry... all at the same time. The sync industry is globally worth over $350 million and growing.
Even if you're lucky enough to have airplay on streaming services, profitable tours, and a good social following... licensing your music can:
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 or pay to submit them to licensing sites. Maybe you even try emailing a few music supervisors... and... crickets.
So how do you connect with the right people in music licensing who can make it happen for you? They're swamped with emails from thousands of other musicians trying to get into their shows, movies, or ads.
Without a clear step-by-step roadmap most songwriters, composers, and producers just get lost in the noise. They don't realize it's about working smarter, not harder.
They get some likes and follows in social media, but that's about it. With nothing big to show for their efforts they start telling themselves... it's just a lottery, it's all about who you know, or even, indie songwriters can't get licensed.
Once you get into that mindset, it's hard to recover your confidence. The years start ticking by and your music career never gets off the ground while others grab those opportunities instead.
The whole thing is about getting your music into the right hands in music licensing. This is critical to finally 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 collecting dust or being submitted over and over without a sync to show for it.
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).
A lot of musicians think the licensing industry is all about connections. The truth is, music supervisors have to find the best music for their show, movie, or ad or they're out of a job. This is when their relationships don't mean anything unless the music is good.
So though you don't have to have relationships with music supervisors, it's CRITICAL that you know how to get your songs in front of them if you don't.
Once they've heard and like your music, that is where the relationship comes in and can make things easier going forward.
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 7.5 billion (the population of the earth)... after you've already been trained as an astronaut by NASA.
If you have the step-by-step process to get your music heard by the right people in music licensing, then you're only competing against a tiny percentage of musicians who do too.
To be honest, if you're a bad songwriter or composer you've got some work to do first. Otherwise you're good to go! You don't have to be a genius songwriter to license your music. Quality music production is way easier to do than good songwriting. You just need to know the top production techniques that work in sync, or hire a good music producer. There are tons online in your budget.
Let's use an example... 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've got some rare talent or it must have taken years to master." Well maybe it did... but now 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!
Want to know what kind of music gets licensed most? Current sounding music.
Does that mean if you do 90's Rock you're out of luck? Far from it! You are just a big fish in a smaller pond. Still plenty of sync opportunities but with a lot less competition.
I know people who make meditation music and crush it in sync. Just always remember, there are music supervisors looking for your songs or compositions no matter the style, they just haven't heard it yet!
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 avoid the pitfalls that sink most would-be sync songwriters, the path is totally open to you to get your first song placement in TV & film.
This leads to instant massive exposure, a great 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 music licensing!
This is something I've been doing successfully for over 15 years, and I'd LOVE to show you how to do it.
"I'm always looking for ways to improve and grow. Licensing was definitely something I wanted to dive into, so the course provided me with a great foundation. Having real life music supervisors and industry pros was invaluable. Two of my tracks were just placed in an Italian feature comedy film Made In China Napoletano and the Netflix original show, Wet Hot American Summer!!"
"The amount of information I gathered over the course was immense, and the chance to interact with some of the industries' elite was truly inspiring. Putting it all to work, I've already scored my second feature film called Professor Mack, a state tourism ad, and have several new projects on the horizon! Navigating the industry will always be a huge challenge, but I sincerely feel that by using this incredible opportunity, it has put me way ahead of the curve. THANK YOU Chris and everyone involved for the motivation and confidence to succeed, I'm making it happen!!!”

Introducing
I've taken everything I've learned from helping musicians collectively make HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of dollars in music licensing and I've turned it into an A to Z, step-by-step program. It not only teaches you everything you need to know to get your music into TV & film, but puts YOU and your music DIRECTLY in front of top music supervisors.
The end result is an elevator 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!
No more flying to sync conferences where you're just one of a thousand faces. Instead you'll meet music supervisors face-to-face LIVE online where they actually listen to your music for sync opportunities.
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 in new shows, movies, and ads.
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.
Music supervisors almost never release sync requests to the public. You have to be on their go-to list to get the real ones.
BUT while you're building your reputation in the industry in The Art Of The Song Pitch, we not only shop your music in the background, we will send you our sync requests that we get directly from them.
They say with the right sync opportunity every song or piece of music is syncable. The truth is, there are some types that get licensed WAY MORE than others.
You'll learn the DOs and DON'Ts of writing or picking your existing songs for sync success.
So if you’re ready to finally get your music heard by the right people and stop hoping that someone might discover it...
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:
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 a film student or a top network series.
Module Highlights:
Your songs are written and now it's time to record them. Believe it or not, music production is the easiest thing to mess up in sync. It is the first thing a music supervisor hears when they hit play... Learn production tips & tricks so your song isn't rejected before it even has a chance.
Module Highlights:
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:
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. Especially if you have a licensing agent or are in a music library. So before you pitch, you need to make sure you are getting paid what you deserve.
Module Highlights:
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.
Module Highlights:
Besides licensing to TV & film, micro-licensing to online platforms is exploding! Learn how to take advantage of this new lucrative way to sync your music.
Module Highlights:
Finally if you are a composer, the world of sync is completely different for you than for a songwriter. The deals are different, getting hired is different, and how you make your money is different.
Module Highlights:
I didn't want to love and leave you with just the course modules, so every second week I do live coaching calls with the class where you can ask me any questions you have about the previous modules.
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.
After the Pitch Sessions to our top music supervisors, we start sending you our own private sync opportunities. We are on the go-to list of lots of supervisors and we forward these to you to pitch to. These are only for students in the class.
Highlights:
In "The Art Of The Song Pitch" I am going to show you the same proven steps that I've taught other musicians who have collectively made hundreds of thousands of dollars licensing their music.
Our community has lots of highly motivated and successful musicians in sync. When you join, you will be part of this special group.
The thing is, I don't want you to waste your time if you're unable to follow through with the program for any reason.
By the end of these 30 days, you'll have received the Introduction Module and Module 1 on Targeting Your Music.
This means that you will have a chance to learn how to target your music properly for sync opportunities BEFORE making a full commitment to take "The Art Of The Song Pitch".
If you don't feel totally confident and motivated after you've learned the first step to hitting the bullseye in music licensing, simply reach out, show us you put in the work, and we'll refund your investment.

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 students. 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 thought about maybe having a cheaper introduction course or maybe putting a book out, but 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 course that gets REAL results for my students. I am sure you can tell from the ones you heard from 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 course and more.
You can, depending on your particular kind of music, 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 students I've coached who came from libraries 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 lots and lots of success stories from musicians who took The Art Of The Song Pitch. The biggest reason for this is I don't just love and leave you with some information. I put you in front of top music supervisors so you can take what you learned and put it into action! We also send you our own private sync opportunities that we get from music supervisors so you can always be sending your music to them.
I am happy to give you my connections! It's a part of the course. That said, it's not really all about who you know. I show you the specific ways to get your music into the right hands even if you have no connections. But just to make it easier for you, I totally hook you up in the course with some top music supervisors and share with you their sync opportunities. I've got you covered!
You get lifetime access. You can go back and review The Art Of The Song Pitch whenever you want. We also offer a super affordable upgrade path at the end of the course if you want to meet and pitch your music live to even more music supervisors.
Yes you can, just have a look at my ironclad money back guarantee above. Basically you have 30 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, just show me you did the work, and we will refund you straight away.
You bet! I know the list is long but I wanted to make this a no-brainer for you. Here's a little secret I decided to hide in this FAQ question in the moment I was writing it (maybe I should have kept it to myself)... I'm on the ride of my life with The Art Of The Song Pitch! I've never been able to help indie musicians on this scale before and to be honest the success they've been having these past couple of years has gone to my head a little. When a student writes to me about the latest licensing opportunities they landed, I feel like I just heard my own song on the radio or something. It's such a high! I'm doing everything I can to tempt you in with this long list of bonuses so you can share in this thing that is working so amazingly well for indie musicians licensing music. I just hope it keeps going like this! (Ok there I said it). :) Almost forgot... see in the box below for what you get if you sign up today...
