Launching a Patreon with Music Career Coach, Katie Zaccardi | EP 34

Katie Zaccardi (@katiezaccardi) is a holistic music career coach, artist and songwriter. Through her work in both music and wellness, Katie discovered the urgent need for conversation surrounding self care within the music industry. Out to Be advocates a balanced path to personal and professional success that is grounded in wellness. As a female in music, her mission is to empower other women in music. To kick start her career, she ran a successful crowdfunding campaign to record & release one of her singles. Today, she is sharing how to launch a program successful, in this case, a Patreon. After today, you can kick the belief “there’s no money in the music industry” and find those that will support your music.'
