Pre-Flight Training The Groundrules I. A Note on DIY ("Do It Yourself")
Before delving into StarPolish, we must ask you to be careful and be smart. Empower yourself with knowledge here and elsewhere, and do as much as you can yourself -- but know that there may come a time to seek direct, personalized advice and turn the reins over to more appropriate experts (like a manager, lawyer, booking agent, record label, other members of your business team). StarPolish will help you identify when that time has come and what's appropriate for you. Today, especially given new technological advancements, the opportunities for successful DIY are greater than ever. Services are easier to find, cheaper, and more user-friendly than they were yesterday. While StarPolish will help you advance your career further, "do it yourself" has its limits. If you're monitoring industry changes and handling all the business issues, you can't spend enough on your most important job as an artist: perfecting your art. Unfortunately, while we'll provide you with top-notch advice, services, and assistance from proven music industry experts and artists, there are no magic formulas that will guarantee you success (however you may define it).
