Musicians, Are You Going In Too Many Directions Music Style Wise? How To Stop It And Make The Cash You Or Your Band Deserves

I was reading some material from a wealthy internet marketer named Mike Filsaime. You're probably thinking, why do I as a musician need any of his concepts? There is one concept every musician should use, and it is one called The HedgeHog concept. I talked about it in my last article on Session playing.

Remember?  You need to focus on one type of music and approach a band that plays your type of music. If you go in many directions music style wise, yeah, you'll learn different types of music but chances are you're limiting yourself with the type of music you play mainly--and you'll go no where or make the kind of money you want.

By focusing on one type of music you're using the HedgeHog Concept. There is a short video from Mike based on this and it's only 2 minutes and 15 seconds. You will see that you're going down too many roads. You think Warren Haynes from Gov't Mule plays a boatload of different music. Chances are, no, he doesn't.

Watch the video on this concept and go back to the last post on being an in demand session player and you'll see the HedgeHog Concept is an important part of your plan as a musician to really make money with just one type of music. Think about this too. If you play one type of music you can diversify within that style of music, and let's say you are a blues player, you'll have blues bands, blues artist managers and blues labels approach you to do sessions. That's called "Natural Diversification". I learned that from another well known businessman named Jim Straw.

So watch the video and use this concept to go forward and make money as an in demand player or band.
