Artists these days focus so heavily on their craft that they forget about the business and marketing side of the music business. Understanding the basic copyright law, marketing trends, and varying aspects of the business can provide you with a leg up. Brandon Jackson is a marketing and branding expert, author, and host of the Music Business Dreams podcast. Brandon got his start in the music business as a marketing intern at Grammy winning producer 9th Wonder's indie label, Jamla Records. There he learned firsthand just how much work it takes to make it in music. In 2011, he founded KDMR Music, a company that provides education and consulting services to those interested in building successful careers in the music industry. Through his podcast and YouTube Channel, he has provided free music business education to thousands of independent musicians in over 22 countries. Brandon also provides marketing, branding and photography services to non-music clients as a freelancer. Through this work, he has helped clients including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Jones Lang LaSalle and media personality LaLa Anthony to extend their brands well into the future.
