Hi Everyone. Hope you are well. Just want to say huge thanks to Rob Mac Leod and to encourage anyone just starting up or joining this program.
I've been using his strategies to grow my fb page for about 2 months now, and its gone from 500 to 4500 fans. The one song we started with went from 0 views to 177K now (in 10 weeks of ads). + many many more engagements in my organic posts than I was getting before.

I have just started working with Rob Mac Leod and I can say that his commitment to helping me find my target audience is brilliant! He has a world of knowledge in digital marketing, how to find your specific audience and get the results that you need to make a larger audience and more sales for both business and music. We will continue working together as Rob is exceeding my expectations with the difference he can help you make. I would highly recommend working with Rob if you are serious about building your career and reaching your music/business full potential. Thanks Rob!

All I can say is I wish I’d found Rob years ago!!!!! With Start Up Music Mentor’s support it’s the first time ever I’ve felt like I’m actually getting somewhere and going the right direction with my music career. It’s like having a producer/manager/marketing manager all in one. I’ve been in the music industry for twenty years and never found anyone doing what Rob does - absolutely couldn’t recommend him enough to any artists/ musicians trying to get their music out there on s tight budget.
Thank you for all your help, Em xx
