How to Write Songs That Sell Video Course (no SSC – CB) — Success For Your Songs



Have you ever had any of these things happen with your music?

If you’ve experienced any of these scenarios you may just need to know the specific elements that most successful songs have in common. After all, those elements are what’s making them appealing to listeners. Writing something that’s “cool” is one thing, but to have it be something desired by a lot of people is a something entirely different.

The great part is you can incorporate these elements into your music without compromising yourself as an artist. You might be afraid that if you learn or apply certain techniques to your music, your songs will be too cookie cutter. You don’t have to worry about that. There are plenty of approaches you can use that will make your music better, without forcing it into a sound you’re not interested in. You’ll keep all your creativity, without becoming a “cookie cutter” artist. By taking certain approaches to songwriting, you can greatly increase the chance of your listener wanting to own it.

I used to think I was the greatest songwriter around. The truth was I was far from it, because I hadn’t learned any of the concepts that can make a song great.

I wanted to be an innovator and do whatever I wanted, but I didn’t realize that before you innovate you have to know the methods that have worked again and again. Then you can stray from them. If you just do whatever you what, whenever you want, without learning, it’s a recipe for a song that’s just messy. Believe me, I learned that the hard way. I once had a song that went from rock, to funk, to jazz all in the same song! I thought it was great because it was original, but needless to say my listeners had no idea where I was taking them with that kind of music. I was trying to innovate before I knew anything about what makes a song successful.

Then I realized that once you know the ideas that go into a successful song, you can use them to make your song great, or you can creatively stray from those same ideas to make your song innovative. Either way, you win. But you have to know what those concepts are first.

Once I realized my songs weren’t working, I decided to build a solid songwriting education for myself and make it my mission to know what makes songs listeners want to hear and own. I read books, and went to seminars and workshops given by the best and most accomplished songwriting teachers around. I learned all the best tips, tricks and techniques there are. Some of what I learned worked and some didn’t. But the stuff that worked, worked incredibly well.

As I started to learn more and more about songwriting, I developed the ability to see what made successful songs work so well, while other songs didn’t. It became almost instantaneous when I listened to a new song.

I ended up analyzing a ton of hit songs for articles on my own website and for other great songwriting websites, like USA Songwriting Competition’s Blog and CD Baby’s Do It Yourself Musician’s Blog. I’ve even had my writings appear as examples in the book Songwriting Without Boundaries, by Pat Pattison, who’s an acclaimed Lyric Writing Professor at Berklee College of Music.

Once I noticed I could see songs in this way, I realized I’d have to put these ideas into an online video course to be able to give other songwriters the ability to clearly see what can make their song work, while sparing them information that doesn’t work. Not to mention saving them time too.

And that’s what I’ve done. I took all the best information on melody writing, lyric writing, chord progressions and even coming up with song ideas and put it into an online course called How to Write Songs That Sell.

This course will teach you two methods for writing a song from start to finish. The first method is called the Find Inspiration Method, where you’ll learn how to specifically draw inspiration and get ideas from other songs, and turn them into ideas that are completely your own. You’ll be able to dismember a current song, examine the parts, change them and then put them back together to create a whole new song of your own. You’ll never understand an existing song (or your own song) so well as when you take this approach.

The second method you’ll learn is the Do It Yourself Method, where you won’t be relying on other songs at all. It’ll show you how to create songs people want to hear completely from your own brain.

If you decide to combine parts of these two methods together, you’ll see great results. Great artists are always looking to other artists for ideas, while at the same time innovating from their own minds. If you combine the two methods, you have a great opportunity to do that yourself.

How to Write Songs That Sell is a comprehensive 5 module program that walks you through all the pieces you need for creating a song people want to own.

It takes you through the entire process of writing a song so you could drastically improve your songwriting in just days.

Each module is broken down into small and absorbable pieces for easy learning and fast implementation. This will also make sure you don’t get overwhelmed.

Every time I've taken an online course, I’ve found the best way to learn is to start by watching the videos so I can have the concepts shown to me and easily explained.

Then if I need to revisit one of the ideas or concepts I learned, I’ve always found it helpful to have a transcript, since it makes those concepts really easy to find when I need them.

I also like the idea of having the audio of what’s in the videos, since they let you absorb the contents of the course anytime and anywhere you want. Plus, the audio format makes it easy to listen to the contents of the course several times, getting it ingrained in your brain so you hardly even have to think about what to do.

For those reasons, I’ve created How to Write Songs That Sell as an online video course, but I’ve also included a downloadable pdf transcript and mp3 audio file of each module.

If you learn the same way I do, you’ll find having the information in all three of these formats helpful. And if you don’t absorb information the way I do, you can choose whichever format works best for you and how you learn.

Since great artists frequently reference other artists they’re inspired by and they also innovate from their own minds, the modules in this course are broken up into 2 different methods, as I mentioned earlier:

To give you an idea of the depth of this program, let's take a look at what you'll find inside each module.

This module will show you how to write creative but catchy melodies for your songs. You don't have to be a naturally gifted melody writer in order to come up with great, memorable melodies. In this module we cover:

By the end of this module you'll always have a way for coming up with a melody and you’ll never be stuck with something that’s uninteresting to your listeners. And you don't even have to know how to read music to make it happen.

This module will show you how to write lyrics that create an emotional impact on your listeners. It covers:

The Chord Progressions Module

This module will show you how to come up with chord progressions that work for your overall idea. It covers:

By the end of this module you'll be armed with everything needed to come up with interesting and original chord progressions that reflect your song’s big idea, at will.

This module will present you with an organized way to come up with an overall concept for your song. This overall concept will help you make decisions about your song as you write it, which is why the big idea is so crucial.  This module covers:

By the end of this module, you’ll be able to easily generate a big idea for your song from practically any words, phrases, experiences you’ve had, or stories you love, any time you want. It’ll show you how to kick off a song that’s going to shape what the rest of your song is going to sound like. And you’ll be able to do that at will.

Prosody is a theme throughout this course. So at this point, not only will you have learned about writing melodies, lyrics and chord progressions that people want to hear, but you'll also know how to tie these elements together in your music so they're all striving towards your overall "big idea." This will give your listeners a coherent and enjoyable listening experience that makes an emotional impact.

Bonus Module: Mindset + Practice

At this point, whether you're starting with chords, melodies or lyrics, you'll be able to create an incredibly effective song. So this module will show you how important mindset is in order to be a successful songwriter, while laying out concrete practice routines for achieving success with your music. These are both crucial things to master if you want your music to be more than just a hobby. So this module covers:

By the end of this module you'll have the right mindset and know how to go after the goals you're looking to achieve with your music.

So those are the 5 core training modules of How to Write Songs That Sell. You can see this is an in-depth comprehensive program that walks you through every detail of building a song people want to hear, while keeping your own creativity and not becoming a cookie cutter artist.

And the moment you take me up on this, you get access to everything. But so far we've only talked about the training modules. There's a lot more that you get with How to Write Songs That Sell.

The Chord and Melody Writing Cheat Sheet

The Chord and Melody Writing Cheat Sheet is a collection of charts for you to use when you're writing chords or melodies. It gives you 6 chord charts with all the chords available to you in 3 major modes (Ionian, Lydian and Mixolydian) and 3 minor modes (Aeolian, Dorian, Phrygian) in every key, so you can experiment with a variety of different sounds when you're writing. It also has a guitar capo chart so you can easily change the key of a song using a capo and still know what chords you're playing.

It also includes all the scales for the 3 major modes and 3 minor modes in every key AND the major and minor blues and pentatonic scales in each key, giving you a plethora of options for writing melodies in practically any style.

It even gives you the guitar tablature for each of those scales to make it easier for you to figure out your melodies if you're a guitar player.

And if it sounds like all these charts are overwhelming, don't worry -- I show you exactly how to use them in the How to Write Songs That Sell course. Once you start writing with these charts, you'll never know how you wrote without them.

There's still a lot more to cover in regard to what you get as part of the How to Write Songs That Sell Program, but before I go on I want to tell you who this course is not for.

Simply buying How to Write Songs That Sell will not turn you into a hit songwriter overnight. If you're just looking to be an overnight American Idol style superstar, this probably isn't for you.

This is a program designed to make you a complete songwriter who can easily identify the elements of great song, so you can incorporate them into your own music, any time you want.

And you'll actually be using the tools I show you to write your songs. So that will require that you take action and do things. If you're not willing to follow what I'm showing you and do a little bit of work, then this is not for you.

This program is for the songwriter who is excited about being able to build a song people are into, whether or not inspiration has struck for writing a song.  This is for the songwriter who isn't looking for anymore trial and error and who doesn't want to invest countless hours trying to figure things out.

If that's you, regardless of your current songwriting experience and regardless of what you think you don't know about songwriting, How to Write Songs That Sell is for you.

Like I said, there's a LOT more that you get with this program. To give you even more resources, I've gone ahead and put together some great bonus lessons for you.
