Part 2

 
 

We all know how frustrating it can be to try to book a tour for your band or project and keep running into the same obstacles:

Not knowing where to start, radio silence from bookers or when you finally hear back from a venue they are already full for the season.

  • When and where to book your tour

  • How to write the perfect e-mail

  • Replying to e-mails

  • Creating a solid database

  • Setting up automated follow ups

  • Creating automated personalized emails

  • Contracts and performance agreements

  • Developing your workflow

Once you are a bit more comfortable with the booking process and the workflow it’s time to set up a longer tour, perhaps cross some borders and explore the possibilities of building a team around you.

  • How to negotiate the fee

  • How to create a good workshop

  • Applying for grants

  • Routing and logistics

  • How to deal with empty dates
