Some time ago, Sharon attended one of Millicent's "getting paid" webinars. She applied the principles discussed during the session and got good results, so she wrote to Millicent to tell her all about it. We are very happy for Sharon and want to share her words with you:
Ā
Thank you so much, Millicent!
I really should have messaged you before, but here it is: I am so grateful for the tips you gave on the webinar. I followed your advice about mentioning expenses and I received Ā£60 and food for a community event āš¾. In the end, it was only required to do a play/workshop for about 15mins. The organiser was very happy š. A young woman came to me afterwards and asked if I would record her playing the djembe. She had played dhol drum years back and experienced low self esteem, largely due to family dynamics. She left the event with her recording and beaming š. This was a fantastic exchange and made it all so worth it š¤©
Thank you so much again, Millicent! šš¾ā¤ļø

Best wishes for both...
We have the firm belief that every musician should be paid their worth.Ā Even if you do music as a hobby, your effort, dedication, skill and passion deserve recognition. Now, it is easier said than done, right?

- Set your fee and get paid regularly.
- Build your confidence to say your price without anxiety.
- Negotiate a win-win for your fee.
- Collect your fee with no drama.
- Set up a money management system.
- Prepare for your tax return.
- Grow a fans mailing list.
