Eric Kline Introduces An Industry 'First' - Personalized Music Business Coaching

Personal one-on-one coaching tailored for those trying to break into the music industry as an artist or exec. Book and monthly CD Audio Series also available

(PRWEB) March 12, 2002 - Mariah Carey, Michael Jackson, and even J. Lo have coaches - people they consult with about various aspects of their careers. Now it's time for the everyday person trying to break into the music business to have the same opportunity. The launch of Inside the Music Business: Personal Coaching with Eric Kline (www.musicbizbook.com) is a remarkable educational and real-life strategic approach for those trying to break into the music industry. Kline, a music video producer who cut his teeth at the Box Music Network as Senior Producer, developed this program on the heels of releasing his book/2-CD set and audio series of the same name.

One-on-one coaching builds on his user-friendly and direct Inside the Music Business brand - providing insight into the music business that works in a very systematic way. Upon signing up, the client will fill out an intensive questionnaire, detailing their goals, desires and areas that they want to focus on. Then Kline devises a strategic coaching program for them. They will receive 30-minute coaching sessions (one, two or three depending on the program they sign up for, costing $195, $295 and $395 per month respectively for the Gold, Platinum and Diamond packages) each month via telephone with Eric Kline, with email consultations in-between. Whether they aspire to be a rapper, musician, executive, or involved in any other aspect of the music business, one-on-one coaching will provide the client focused learning and over time, connections in the industry. All clients will receive a free copy of Klines book/2-CD set Inside The Music Business: The Power Players, while Platinum members will also receive a 6-month subscription to the Inside The Music Business: Monthly Audio Series, and Diamond members will receive a 12-month subscription.

Also during the coaching period, Kline will invite other power players, specific to the individuals area of interest, on his calls. "Attorneys will be a popular choice for people who acknowledge the utmost importance in grasping the legal aspects of the music business" says Kline. Several key players in the music industry have already agreed to participate, at Klines request, in the 'coaching' including A&R and record company executives, producers, and attorneys. Harry J. Getzov (former head of business affairs, Select Records and the manager of the Jerky Boys) has agreed to become one of the legal consultants for Klines clients.
"I cant tell you how many people have come to me over the years, asking how they can become involved in the music business in some way," says Getzov. Since I have always enjoyed listening to and counseling these people at some level, the coaching program is a wonderful vehicle for educating and guiding them in a focused and economical way."

The overall goal of Inside the Music Business: Personal Coaching with Eric Kline is to help aspiring music business professionals become actively involved in the music industry while educating them and helping them realize their goals. Because of the highly personal and time intensive nature of this program, there will be limited enrollment.

Klines acclaimed book and 2-CD set, Inside The Music Business: The Power Players, takes a unique approach to revealing inside information about the music business. Over a series of forty interviews, printed in the book, and heard on the CDs, Kline grants the listener/reader a rare insight into the career paths of top execs and artists such as Russell Simmons, Ice Cube and Boyz II Men. Inside The Music Business: The Monthly Audio Series with Eric Kline continues this approach, featuring an in-depth interview each month with another power player. The book and 2-CD set and monthly audio series are available separately from www.MusicBizBook.com.
