Business Planning Class


Business Planning Class

Taking the Business Planning class was a truly valuable experience. It gave me the opportunity to take a step back and reassess my business with a more strategic lens. Throughout the course, I was able to identify areas for improvement, rethink existing processes, and implement new methodologies that are already helping us operate more efficiently and with less pressure.

Beyond the technical and financial tools provided, what I appreciated most was the structure the course offered to build a plan that is not just theoretical, but actionable. It allowed me to turn ideas into a clear, organized roadmap, and to approach my project with renewed clarity and purpose.

Overall, the class helped me take my business to the next level by strengthening its foundation and future vision. I’m very grateful for the insights and support received.

Highly recommended experience

I completed the Postgraduate Diploma in Music Business Mindset at IMB School, and it was a truly enriching experience. The program offers a clear and structured overview of the main areas of the music business, covering topics like publishing, recording, live sector, DSPs, legal, and emerging technologies such as AI.

One of the aspects I found especially helpful were the Thursday review sessions with Ekaterina Bazhanova, where we had the chance to go deeper into the Advanced Principles material. These sessions helped me consolidate the concepts and better understand their real-world application.

I would recommend this program to anyone interested in the music industry not only to those working directly in business roles, but also to composers, producers, and creatives. Maybe you need to take care of all these responsibilities and areas by yourself at some point, but even if you plan to delegate them to specialists, having a general understanding of how the industry works is extremely valuable and allows you to make more informed decisions.

Postgraduate Diploma in Music Business Mindset

The online part-time post-graduate diploma in music business was a deep dive into all of the different areas that make up the business side of the industry: publishing, recording, live events, DSP's, legal, & AI in music.
It was great to have industry professionals join us during our online sessions per topic, and then also have the chance to interact with fellow students on the assignments.
I think my favourite part was being able to ask the experts questions directly and connect in that way, since that is not someting you would usually get to do very easily in real life.
Overall I am happy I chose to invest in my education with IMB regarding the music industry, to understand more about it and what areas I could see myself in profesionally as well.
