I told her I'd be happy to and that I also wanted to use it as an opportunity for our listeners to learn more about CareersinMusic.com. We cover booking agent basics in our conversation as well as some of the many topics that CareersinMusic.com offers. Thanks for listening everyone and I hope you enjoy our conversation!
