Consulting

We believe that every musician has the potential for greatness. The key to realizing yours lies in discovering your why.

 
 

Our holistic approach to both short and long-term consultation is for the modern musician who wishes to accelerate their professional career in the 21st century. In addition to providing artistic development and guidance, Karen’s experience as a life and business coach enables a collaborative experience unlike any other. Karen will not only encourage you to define your goals, but she will customize a plan for you to accomplish them. As part of the consulting process, Karen will work with you to translate your unique artistic vision into a clear and marketable image. She will provide you with the professional materials necessary to promote your artistry, and coach you on how to use them in a variety of different media outlets.

UNIVERSITY RECRUITMENT

Much like our ability to audit and build upon your existing social media, KCA offers the opportunity to audit your studio or your applied program at your institution. Whether you’re just starting out or approaching a ten-year tenure, recruitment and retention are vital factors in any studio’s growth. “How often should I tour? What helps or hurts an image? How effective is paper mail versus promoted content? How do I improve social media engagement?” Contrary to popular belief, social media is not a pay-to-play or pay-to-win game.

This is where our market research and years of expertise come in, allowing you to work smarter and not harder in your recruitment efforts. By assessing your current program and the effectiveness of your existing efforts, KCA tailors initiatives and marketing strategies that will allow you to better reach your targeted audience. We partner with you to help guide you through the process of up-leveling the caliber of recruited students, your studio's perception in the market, the creation of intentional recruiting materials, and your brand as a professor.
