POEMS AND MUSIC

You've seen the ads in magazines. Can these companies really take your poems and turn them into hit songs?

If you're a lyricist, you're better off finding people in your area who will co-write songs with you for a percentage of the royalties. Do not use "work for hire" companies.

Look at this example letter from a well known operation that has been in business for years. If you see something similar to this, use caution.

How about all of those satisfied customers they have? Don't those mean anything? No.

These companies will often try to stroke your ego by sending an application that is designed to get your mind working about how nice it would be to make a living in music. Don't buy in.

Visit one of the links to the right to learn more about the legitimate music business. Yes, it's very sweet when you get here, but don't think you can shortcut hard work. The best thing you can do to succeed in this business and not get taken is to get educated!
