A Rise member named Mike just posted this win inside the Rise community. Two years of writing for sync. First placement just landed, a track on a US golf show. The line at the end is what I keep coming back to: "Persistence pays off." That is the actual mechanic of sync. The track that gets picked is rarely your best one. It's the one in front of the right person on the right day, because you didn't stop sending. Mike took the lifetime spot in Rise because he kept showing up to the live calls and digging through the archive whenever he was stuck. The point of lifetime isn't access, it's that you stop having to think about it. A few Audio Artist Rise lifetime spots are open right now. If you want one, DM me and tell me where you're at.

How awesome would it be to have your own customized - AI slop free - track visualizer that turns every composition into a polished, share-ready video in minutes? Oh wait, it gets better. What if you could also generate short clips from it automatically, with fade-ins and fade-outs handled for you, plus topic-related text, supporting video footage, or both layered on top?

I want to introduce you to Mario. He came to me the way a lot of composers do. Plenty of talent, plenty of courses already bought, and still no clear way to turn any of it into actual work. Here's what he told me after going through everything, from the courses to the group to private mentoring: "Working with Alex is the best investment I ever made for my music career. I started with the Academy courses, and after buying many in the past, these are by far the best, taking you from the basics to high-end production. Then I moved to the AAR group and it boosted my skills exponentially. A safe space twice a week to review tracks and talk through everything production-music related. But both pale in comparison to the Private Mentorship. I feel like this was a better investment even than music school. In three months, applying Alex's advice (even when I didn't initially agree) stepped up my game so much that now I have multiple contracts with music libraries, and I'm doing what I love." The line I keep coming back to is the one in the parentheses. He applied the advice even when he didn't agree with it. Then the contracts started showing up. None of that happened because Mario suddenly got more talented. He got direction, and a room to do the work in. Two ways in if you want the same: 1. The monthly price for Audio Artist Rise is back. $97 a month puts you in the same group Mario started in, with live track reviews twice a week → https://www.skool.com/audio-artist-rise/about 2. Or go all in like he did: a full year of Rise plus 10 private 90-minute sessions with me, where we go through your music, your positioning, and exactly how you find and win work. $1,997, still open. Comment or DM me and I'll send the link. You don't have to go all in to start. But you do have to start.

Sometimes... a little quote is all it takes to help you get those creative juices flowing and/or get back into a positive mindset! I'll go first 😄 "Art is how we decorate space, music is how we decorate time." -Jean-Michel Basquiat "The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding." -Dipen Parmar ✨

Hey everyone, The Live Call Archive got a complete rebuild. If you're in Rise, your access is already included and the new version is live now. What's new: - Topic filter on the side. Video game music, pricing and rates, cold outreach, music theory, percussion, YouTube, all tagged. Click a topic, every relevant call surfaces. - Sticky player. The video stays open while you scroll, so you can keep listening while you hunt for the next one. - 269 calls in there now. New ones added every week. I recorded a quick walkthrough showing exactly how the new archive works and what's inside. If you want to see it before you decide, watch the video above. To get in: Sign in with the email you use here on Skool, get the magic link, you're forwarded straight to the archive. For anyone not in Rise: the archive is now available standalone. $27/month, $297/year, or $997 lifetime. 👉 https://lca.alexpfeffer.com/ If you'd rather join the live calls themselves with track feedback and the full Rise program, drop a comment or DM me and I'll walk you through it. Cheerio, Alex
