This is the exact 90 game plan I would hand to any new live audio engineer starting in the industry. It’s not near as scary as you think.

I posted this poll last week and the results disheartened me:

Out of almost 500 votes 60% of you wonderful people doubt you could make a reasonable living in the live event industry!

You might be telling yourself:

1. There’s not enough gigs to go around where I live
2. I’m simply not talented or skilled enough to get enough gigs
3. The market is oversaturated
4. I’ll probably screw up and lose all my opportunities
5. How could I possibly “jump” from this nice, stable job to such a volatile industry?

Nothing could be further from the truth.

No matter if you’re fresh out of high school or nearing retirement I want to tell that *there’s room for you. The industry desperately needs more talented, generous, and dependable engineers.

To be clear, I’m not asking you to do anything drastic. In fact, I want you to do the opposite.

Don’t jump, take one small step. Then another. Then another.

Today I want to share with step-by-step a 90 day experiment you can run to move towards the freedom and opportunity you’re craving with a live audio freelance career. To be fair, there’s plenty of upsides working for an employer, but if you’ve been wanting to test the freelance waters, here’s your chance.

We’ll cover:

- How to creatively assess your local and national gig opportunities and start generating income fast (there’s more out there than you think)
- Why you should start small and build up momentum vs taking a giant leap of faith (but
- How to keep your business lean so you’re not sweating about making ends meet
- What new business bank accounts you should open and exactly how to manage the money you bring
