“Live Music Professionals was a very valuable experience for me personally and also for my business. The program connected me with some really great people working all over the industry and has given me great inspiration about ways to grow and improve our business. As a result of the program we have implemented a new marketing plan for Some Velvet Morning which has helped considerably, not only in growing sales but also in professional headspace as we take on a second venue. I also had great fun in the process and was reminded that others often make mistakes like we do!” – 2017 Participant Jeremy Furze, Some Velvet Morning and The Bridge, Castlemaine

“Live Music Professionals was a great way to connect with people in different facets of the industry and it was really exciting to see the enthusiasm everyone had to learn, share and really make the most of the program.”  2017 Coach Sally Mather, The Corner Group
