About Us
We're on a mission to help 1,000,000 Indies succeed.
Because music belongs to listeners and creators. Because this is our industry to change. Because the next generation of creatives deserves more than a 'fallback'.
Who is Indepreneur?
Indepreneur is the fastest growing online community for independent musicians looking to build a business with their music career. It's a resource and a network you can use to learn how to market your music, connect with other creatives, and get the right strategies to build and monetize your fan base. With thousands of students, graduates, and clients in every genre imaginable, we've become one of the world's most trusted voices sharing the best of what works in music marketing.
Our "What"
We make music industry success possible for musicians of every level, regardless of resources or connections. We provide education, community, help, guidance, and solidarity through a suite of online trainings, exclusive member benefits, instructor-led classes, and agency services. By teaching marketing and entrepreneurship to thousands of independent musicians and industry professionals, we hope to usher in a new era of growth and business maturity in the music industry.
Our "Why"
The best option musicians are presented with is signing a deal with companies that have exploited creative people and mishandled the music industry. We believe that independent musicians can take this industry from the dark ages to the 21st century. We believe in a better future for young creatives. We believe that - together - we can re-imagine this industry and reward passion and originality. We work tirelessly every day to help ensure that the music industry makes it past infancy.

Thanks to Kyle, a few days ago, the album debuted at #19 on the iTunes pop chart!
Props to Kyle. About a year & a half ago, Meghan Linsey & I began independently producing her new record. All we had were songs & a message. We had limited financial resources, and we had no idea how we were going to pull off an impactful release with our small team. We busted our asses getting an infrastructure in place to engage fans and nurture those relationships much thanks to Kyle. A few days ago, the album debuted at #19 on the iTunes pop chart along with some pretty damn good company, and we've been fulfilling merch orders all day. Just wanted to write this as a testament to the fact that there is no substitute for the grind, and there is no substitute for a real plan. Thanks Kyle! Good luck to everyone too!

Just got my first 100k views with this method today. 
My monthly listener base is now about 6 times larger than it was half a year ago on Spotify, and I’m seeing a very positive increase in Apple Music revenue too!
Very grateful for the mileage I’m getting from the “Fan Finder” concept!
My video has gotten 20.5k views in less than 3 weeks!
The video budget was $0

Total advertising budget so far is the equivalent of about 3 takeaway coffees

As some of you know, I set out to get cold audiences interested in my music, with the goal of building streaming numbers. My monthly listener base is now about 6 times larger than it was half a year ago on Spotify, and I’m seeing a very positive increase in Apple Music revenue too!
I've gotten to the point where fans are messaging me pretty much every day and traction is moving to other platforms!
I launched my first video and it's now at 60K views, almost 2K likes, 460 shares and a crap ton of comments I've gotten to the point where fans are messaging me pretty much every day and traction is moving to other platforms, specifically YouTube. I've also added a little over 350 new fans to the page too 
? Stoked to move into the coming weeks and closer to launch the full project!!
