Dave Kusek, bestselling author of "The Future of Music: Manifesto for the Digital Music Revolution" and Vice President at Berklee College of Music has developed Music Power Network, a new online music management service to help people succeed in the challenging music business of tomorrow. Music Power Network is dedicated to driving artist development and creative success in the music business of the 21st century.
Do bands need to get signed to a record label or win American Idol to be successful? How can artists and songwriters prosper in the face of online music? What kinds of careers are going to be hot in the new music business in 2-3 years? How can artists connect directly to their fans in a way that provides value and satisfaction for everyone? How can musicians make money when all the music is free?
Music Power Network helps independent musicians, songwriters, producers, artist managers, and people starting music companies answer these questions. The web-based educational and management company provides online lessons, video interviews with industry icons, career and business planning templates and thousands of specially selected resources designed to help people achieve success in today's music industry.
"So many people have asked me to help them with their music careers that I conceptualized Music Power Network," says Dave Kusek. "There is a huge difference between creating the future and watching it go by. With MPN, musicians get a comprehensive understanding of today's music industry and custom tools to create a unique strategy to carve out their position in the music business of the future."
Music Power Network offers a structured program for success in the music industry. MPN subscribers take an intensive crash course on the new music business during which they learn the importance of creating their own unique business strategy, building a team, setting their goals and how to apply the power of direct-to-fan marketing and independent promotion.
MPN members get insights from exclusive music video interviews with experts including renowned producer Phil Ramone, Nettwerk CEO Terry McBride, CD Baby founder Derek Sivers, Topspin CEO Ian Rogers, producer David Kershenbaum, artist Amber Rubarth and more than 30 other artists, bands, producers, engineers, managers, entrepreneurs and songwriters, many of them Grammy award winners.MPN members then build custom interactive music business plans employing specialized interactive templates over time on the MPN site. These tools take people step-by-step through the process of getting organized, defining success, creating a marketing plan, finding key resources and planning a music career.
In addition, MPN members get access to an exclusive professional social network for creative exchange and communication, collaboration, networking, and discussion. MPN members also receive discounts on products and services from numerous industry partners including Topspin, Nimbit, Ariel Publicity, Groovehouse, Berklee College of Music and others.

Comments from MPN members:
"If you need a Reality Check in the Music Business join MPN." Alan Johnson
"The video interviews alone are a worth the price of the membership." Alex Brodsky
"This is a great resource", says indie artist Brian Franke. "MPN will give you a better idea of the music environment today and in the future."
"I really admire the way that you are not just writing about the future of music, but that you are actually hand-holding people to get there if they need the help by providing them tools for it. This is what the industry needs….more doers, less talkers!" Mathew Daniel
