How to Book Better Gigs: Free Course

Musicians can learn the basics of booking successful gigs and touring with a free course created by Hypebot Editor and longtime booking agent Bruce Houghton for Berklee and Coursera.

This short four-lesson Berklee Coursera course draws on key lessons and strategies from his popular Berklee Online Touring 101 course.

“Live gigs are where most artists earn 80% of their income,” said Houghton, “so they and the managers that work with them must learn how to do it well,”

The Coursera Berklee self-guided lessons include:

• The Basics of Touring
• Creating A Great With Your Fans
• Hit The Road! Choosing A Touring Model That Works For You
• Marketing Tiyr Gigs And Tours

Users who pay a small fee will get a richer experience and receive a Certificate of Completion.
