CAREER  CONSULTATIONS

Betty Tong, PR/Bookings/Consulting

Since 1995, we have had the honor and pleasure to work with and book tours for some of the leading emerging voices in the songwriting community. Through my work and travels, I have often been approached by up and coming artists regarding representation. Therefore, I am pleased to offer my knowledge and experience to aspiring artists through one-on-one phone consultations about the area in which I specialize: PR and Booking. Artists wishing to schedule one-on-one career consultations should leave a phone message or email - please be specific regarding the topics you would like to discuss. All phone consultations are billed at $75.00 per hour with a one hour minimum. Due to the high volume of packages received and my commitments to our artist roster, consultations are set up in advance, generally at least one week from the date of your request.

Here are some typical topics:

1. PR - Basic Tools of the Trade: The quality of materials you send out is an accurate indicator of the professional caliber behind them.

• Press Kit - Your visual ambassador - the heart of any media campaign. Know wwhat to include in your promo pack!
