In September, we again offer "Rock Your Net" (

Ariel Hyatt - Thursday, Sept 15th
Gavin Mikhail - Wednesday, Sept 28th
The unique workshop asks registrants to bring their laptops to the seminar in order to build their own online presence infrastructure. At the end of each session, each attendee leaves with actionable assets that they can further develop on their own. By the end of the series, participants will be able to:
* Create and implement a plan to market their music.
* Build and extend their online presence & infrastructure with tools such as Virb, Bandzoogle, BandCamp and Topspin.
* Use YouTube, FaceBook & Twitter to build awareness for their band and their brand.
* Learn how to acquire and engage their fans so as to have a sustainable music career.
* Set up an online store to sell their music and merchandise direct to fan (DTF).
In the past, the series has even brought in guest speakers such as Ariel Hyatt (
