Good day,
Chris from the AI Musicpreneur here.
Kids and music - a magical combination, isn't it?
This weekend, I visited my sister's sister and her husband.
Their son Noah is a bundle of energy and creativity.
We had a blast experimenting with music apps on my phone.
It's incredible how quickly kids pick up new things.
Noah's piano skills and percussion enthusiasm were contagious.
Moments like these remind me why I love music so much.
Now, let's cut to the chase:
Ever been at a crossroads in your music career?
Label contracts, publishing deals, manager choices - the questions pile up.
It's easy to lose sight of the big picture.
I've created a prompt to help.
Feed it your opportunity, get tailored recommendations.
Don't believe me? Try the "Opportunity insight engine" yourself.

✍🏼 AI PROMPT CORNER
Stuck at a crossroads in your music career?
Whether it's deciding on a tour, timing your next release, or choosing a manager, these choices can be overwhelming.
But what if you had a seasoned industry strategist available 24/7?
That's where AI comes in.
AI can process vast amounts of industry data, tour histories, release patterns, and management track records to offer insights you might have missed.
It considers multiple factors: your genre, fan base, finances, and artistic goals.
To provide advice tailored to your unique situation.
By leveraging AI, you're not just making better decisions!
You're potentially avoiding costly missteps.
And seizing opportunities at the perfect moment.
It's like having a crystal ball for your music career!
Remember, AI is here to inform your choices, not make them for you.
It's a powerful addition to your decision-making toolkit.
Alongside your instincts and mentor advice.
Ready to make smarter music moves?
I've developed an AI prompt that can be your personal music career strategist.
Simply input your specific dilemma.
And it will provide tailored recommendations.
I've got just the tool for you. Use the “opportunity insight engine”

Copy & paste the following prompt: ↓
Act like a seasoned coach that has years of experience consulting and training music artists to pick the best opportunities for their music career. You have learned from the best, including Scooter Braun for branding and Rick Rubin for music production.
Objective: Help me identify the best career opportunities for a music artist. This evaluation should ensure the alignment with their vision, maximize benefits, and avoid potential pitfalls.
Step 1 - Understand the Artist:
Please provide your bio, including your vision, values, musical style, career goals, and any other relevant information.
(Wait for the user's response and then proceed to the next step)
Step 2 - Describe the Opportunity:
Please describe the current opportunity you are considering.
(Wait for the user's response and then proceed to the evaluation)
Step 3 - Automated evaluation:
Based on the provided bio and opportunity description, I will evaluate the opportunity using the following criteria:
Value alignment: Does it align with your values and vision?
Mental wellbeing: Will it positively impact your mental health?
Creative freedom: Does it allow you to maintain creative control?
Focus on quality: Does it enable focusing on quality over quantity?
Personal growth: Will it contribute to your personal development?
Financial benefit: Is the financial gain beneficial in the long term?
Time management: Can you manage the time and energy required?
Future opportunities: Could it lead to more aligned opportunities later?
Intuition: What does your gut feeling say about it?
Long-term vision: Does it fit your long-term goals and legacy?
Step 4 - Automated scoring:
I will rate each aspect from 0 (Not at all) to 10 (Extremely) and calculate a total score out of 100. The score will be interpreted as follows:
0-33: Low fit - The opportunity might not align well with your goals, values, or current situation. Consider potential risks or re-evaluate the opportunity.
34-66: Medium fit - The opportunity has some alignment but also presents significant considerations or trade-offs. Further reflection or adjustments might be needed.
67-100: High fit - This opportunity appears to align well with your values, goals, and circumstances. It seems to be a favorable option worth pursuing.
Step 5 - Reflect on low scores:
Consider any aspects that scored low. These could be areas of concern requiring more thought or negotiation.
Step 6 - Final decision:
Use this tool as a guide for a quick initial assessment. Combine this tool's results with your personal judgment and additional considerations for complex decisions.
Take a deep breath and work on this problem step-by-step.
ℹ️ How do you use this prompt?
This prompt guides the user through a step-by-step process to evaluate a specific career opportunity.
Input your prompt and wait for the AI to ask for your artist bio and your uniaue situation.
The AI is then instructed to rate various aspects of the opportunity on a scale of 0 to 10, considering factors like value alignment, creative freedom, and financial benefit.
Finally, the user is provided with a scoring system and interpretation to determine the overall fit of the opportunity based on their provided artist info.
Here’s an example I wrote for virtual artist “Luna Raye”
Luna Raye has an upcoming opportunity to tour with a very popular artist.
She would play a 50-date tour with not many days of rest in between. It will be 4 concert in a row + 1 off day, then repeat.
It is predicted that she will play in front of 2,000 people every night.
She’s running a newsletter that she currently wants to win new subscribers for to build a sustainable music career for herself.
She will be accompanied by a 3-piece band consisting of a drummer, a bassist and a guitar player.
The overall pay for the entire band, fees for booking agent, manager etc. already deducted would be $1,500 per night split by 4 people.
Here’s the output it generated.
I inserted an artist bio for Luna + the opportunity above.
Part 1 - Evalulation of the opportunity using 10 criterias:
Part 2 - Review low scores to know how to bette negotiate:
