Why do you need to take part?  According to Rob Lawrence (www.agendared.com), a participant in a previous campaign:

1. Goal setting is critical to any success in life. You need a heading on the horizon to have your game together.  By choosing to take on such a challenge you are making the next step towards personally committing to succeed.

2. The source is trusted.  I had the pleasure to witness Ariel in action at TAXI‘s songwriter’s road-rally in Los Angeles last November and I learned more in one hour than most musicians learn in a year.  I’m serious.  What there is to know about Social Networking will blow your mind.

3. It’s about success.  The Music Business today is about you owning your own business and business plan.  Don’t wait to get signed.  As the Irish playwright, George Bernard Shaw once said, “The people who succeed in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can’t find them, make them.”  You might want to consider this for a second.  There are 1.3 billion people with regular internet access in this world.  If you can attract 1% of 1% of 1% of them – that’s ten thousand fans.
