How to Create Your Profile Listing for LeadingMusicians.com
Other than having your own website, there are few better ways to increase your online exposure as a musician than to list yourself on music directories. For now, we are providing musicians with the opportunity to create a comprehensive listing at no cost.
Even if we decide to charge for listings in the future, those who build their listing in 2023 will continue to have a free listing. Please create this in a Google Doc. An MS Word Doc will also work.
Write Your Profile Listing in "First-Person" in this Order:
- Start with an introductory sentence at the top of your bio that explains any initials behind your name
- Add a second sentence that summarizes your main activities
Write about your musical activities by order of importance – either based on income potential or based on your artistic goals - Your first section explains your most prominent musical activity – perhaps performing
- List and write about your second most important activity – perhaps teaching
Add and overview your third most important activity – perhaps composing or arranging - Next, add your section outlining your musical education – from your early years through your formal education. Don’t forget any additional training that you received after your formal music education
- Finally, complete your bio with personal notes, where you tell a little about your own life, in addition to your life in music, which can include hobbies, significant relationships, and fun facts
- Insert photos or other images where you want them to go in your profile listing
- Include a link to your own website if you have one or a social media destination link at the bottom of your profile listing
- Send the doc with images to me and I will have my associate turn it into a webpage on LeadingMusicians.com
