I'm so BAD at money stuff, so I'm really grateful for this thorough tutorial!

Excellent video and info because this is the part that every Producer struggles with. Thank you!!!

Great videos! Now, this may not apply across the board, but it is pretty standard human relations stuff. Think of it as dating; Your efforts deserve to be noted and compensated. Your value is determined 100% by YOU. EVERYTHING is negotiable. Be prepared to walk away, ALWAYS.

Regarding the question "Do you have a set budget": could you clarify on the suggested order. I have heard other "experts" stating that its important to "anchor" your "Rockstar" rate first - are you suggesting doing this and THEN asking for their budget? Thanks for clarifying, and for the useful tips!

[@SyncMyMusic]

You can certainly try that! I find by simply starting with an open question, it puts the pressure on THEM to divulge what kind of money they have to offer. Once you have that bit of information, you can start the negotiation.

Thank you for taking the time out of your schedule to season us. This is great information. I was hoping to get some more insight on rates and such. I hope you could email me. I have a phone call scheduled for tomorrow or sunday. I know that's probably asking alot, but this conversation could determine my future. Thanks again for this awesome video! :-)

I don't do 1 on 1 consulting, but I wish you all the best with your negotiations!
