Great idea for a series Bob. I can't wait to hear what Joe Vitale has to say.
Thanks, Dave! I just interviewed Joe earlier this week, and it was awesome. He is actually working on his first album, due out in May. Will have that posted soon.

I love the part where David talks about saving up the money you make from music and reinvesting in your career.
That kind of steady growth and investment is a great path to success.
Love your work Bob.

Hey Bob,
Great interview! I have David's 07 version of his book and received the 2011 update. My website is designed right out of his recommendations, among many other things that I've been doing.
Between yourself, David, Chris Rockett, and Derek, there's a college degree of information to do independent music marketing...and the concepts really work!
Thanks again!
