They teach you harmony. Orchestration. How to make your strings sound cinematic. Then you graduate or finish your course and the entire industry says: "Good luck. Hope someone finds you." The unspoken strategy is: post on social media, submit to libraries, and wait. Maybe network at a conference once a year. Maybe cold email a supervisor with a generic "here is my reel" message that goes straight to trash. That is not a career strategy. That is hope. I spent 20 years doing exactly this. Some years it worked. Some years it was silence. And I never questioned it because I assumed that is just how the industry works. Then I got into the automation world and realized something embarrassing. Every other industry has outreach systems. Personalized, automated, scalable. A sales rep at a SaaS company sends 50 targeted emails a day without breaking a sweat. Each one references the recipient's company, their role, their recent work. Composers send "Hi, I am a composer, here is my reel" to a generic info@ address and wonder why nobody replies. We are literally decades behind. So I built something. An outreach system that researches companies, finds the right people, and writes personalized emails that actually reference their projects. Their latest game. Their recent trailer. The show they just worked on. Because the system actually looked it up. Runs on your laptop. You own it. No monthly fees to some platform holding your contacts hostage. I have been setting these up for a handful of people and I am taking on a few more. If you want to see what this looks like, send me a message.

Hey Everyone! Hope you're having a great week so far. Just wanted to share some news with you - I received a PRS payment this morning, and it turns out that I had my first sync placements last year! PRS has only just caught up, but my music was used on BBC Parliament as well as a couple of Romanian television channels. I've yet to find the actual placements (TuneSat is pulling nothing back at the moment), but I'll try to share them if I find them! As for the amount, it was by no means life-changing - but it was a very nice surprise this morning and covered the reasonably hefty car repair bill that I received yesterday! It's a start, and a real motivator to kick on and keep writing and releasing tracks across libraries of all different shapes and sizes. I'm also happy with the timings - the album launched last May (Q2 2025) and the placements came between July and September (Q3 2025). Obviously mileage varies, but it's nice to see that the tracks weren't sat idle for too long before they were used! Anyway, I hope this is a bit of reassurance for those of you releasing tracks and albums and waiting for the rewards to come back. Music admin is slow and takes time, so be patient and just keep writing! (Apologies to those who already saw this message in The Sync Circle, just wanted to circulate here too and say a huge thanks to @Alex Pfeffer for all of his continued support!)
