Seminars

Success in our ever-changing industry is determined by the strength and longevity of personal contacts.

Dan Kimpel, author of the just released Networking Strategies for the New Music Business -- the follow up to his best-selling Networking in the Music Business -- presents "kimpelling" seminars to educate musicians, songwriters and industry professionals in the essential arts of maximizing personal and professional relationships, making valuable contacts while presenting themselves, and their creations, in the best possible light.

Who you know, what you know, and most importantly, who knows you; Dan teaches and reinforces the essential presentation skills necessary to making personal contact with all strata of the music business. Using these techniques, participants can create an invincible and enduring support network.
