I urge everyone to utilize all resources available to you at IOTM. I've been performing full time since about 2007, yet I was still able to benefit from greatly from the consulting session. Just from a few tweaks to my pitch that Kyle helped me with, I was able to get more face time with the talent buyers. Thanks again guys!
https://www.indieonthemove.com/index.php/users/PhillipBrandonI was able to book a national tour for a Hip Hop act with the help indieonthemove.com's DIT booking service. Kyle, the founder of IOTM, was super helpful and easy to work with. The initial consultation alone helped us with bookings immediately. He made key suggestions on tour routing, finding openers for each market and how to improve our online presentation so that when the venue talent buyers visit our website they have everything they need to green light a show. Most importantly Kyle tailored our booking pitch perfectly. Once the booking process began I was overwhelmed with the number of responses. The DIT service is great because not only do you have someone with years of touring experience acting as a mentor but through the process you also gain valuable knowledge for future bookings. If you're questioning whether or not to get pro services, I highly recommend that you do. Its a small investment that goes a long way. Also if you're on a budget or on a tight paycheck schedule, Kyle is super understanding and will work with you. I say don't hesitate and give it a shot.
https://www.indieonthemove.com/index.php/users/slapnevada1We've been booking our own tours for the past 7 years and for the first time we sought out some help to fill in the gaps in unexplored regions. By working with Kyle and the rest of the IOTM team we were able to put together a solid two week/12 show tour in half the amount of time! Thank you IOTM!! ~Bristol To Memory

https://www.indieonthemove.com/index.php/users/kingwashingtonIt's easy to become weary and skeptical about another "music service" that claims to offer "this" and "that" and the next greatest thing to "help musicians". Most services simply over-promise and under-deliver. One email exchange with Kyle from IOTM and you'll instantly realize why IOTM stands out so far from the pack. Kyle's attention to detail is fantastic and his level of personalized service is extremely rare in this industry. We added shows in multiple new markets within days and we're going back for a second round. It's like IOTM on steroids. Best money we have spent in a long time.
https://www.indieonthemove.com/index.php/users/cherrysuedeIf you're looking to book more shows in less time, sign up for IOTM's DIT booking services. It is well worth the investment. Kyle was immensely helpful in helping me craft a pitch that gets results. The campaign that we sent out garnered responses from numerous booking agents and, ultimately, booked gigs. If you're serious about getting yourself booked, I would definitely recommend giving it a shot.
https://www.indieonthemove.com/index.php/users/bcoolI am happy to write this endorsement for working with Kyle and IOTM's DIT booking service. The artist I represent, Jas Patrick, had taken about a year off from shows to work on other projects and was coming back with a show that no longer featured a full band but just himself singing while playing guitar and a foot drum. We were marketing a new product and I was struggling to get shows on the books consistently-- especially out of town. We had already been using the great database that IOTM provides for free but when I saw the DIT service as well as the great feedback from others who had used it we thought it would be worth a try to help get things off the ground. This turned out to be a great decision! After a talk with Kyle where we discussed our goals and what we needed to accomplish, he took the booking pitch I had been using, sent a revised version to me for approval (with many great improvements) and within a couple days had sent it out to all the markets we discussed. Within 24 hours we were receiving replies and booking shows-- some of which we have booked way into the fall. Working with Kyle took all of the struggle out of the booking process for us and we got exactly what we needed-- shows! For us, this was money well spent.

https://www.indieonthemove.com/index.php/users/vptinylionHaving trouble booking your own tour? These are the guys you contact. I'm not sure how many people run IOTM, but the service is great. I spoke to Kyle Weber the first time I joined and it was such a great experience right from the beginning. When I first started, I tried to book my own tour just using their database. Indie On The Moves database of venues is massive. I called up to get advice on the best way to book your own shows. Kyle was amazing, taking me step by step through the process. Just really making me aware of things to look for and ask for, even crafting my first pitch letter. I got so overwhelmed trying to do everything myself, that I vowed the next time to DIT (Do-It-Together). This process was even better. Kyle went even more in depth and crafted a very specific pitch letter that was great. We honed in on our target. It was wonderful. We are currently securing all the dates and I must say the responses have been coming in non stop. It's just a matter of following up and finalizing everything. I recommend IOTM to every independent musician; because if you are not gigging. you do not have a career. Thank you guys for such a great service. Uni
https://www.indieonthemove.com/index.php/users/univsolmcIndie on the Move has been such an indispensable part of my tour life. I feel so lucky to have found this site a few years back when booking my first tour. I've booked numerous regional tours and 3 solo tours that have spanned half the country, and 3/4 of my tours have been booked through the music venues search function on this site. Talent buyers & Bookers really pay attention to my emails because Indie on the Move provides you with just the information you need. I'm working with a booking agent now, but I couldn't have gotten where I am in my career without you guys! You take DIY music missions to the next level. Thanks so much! :) - Julia Weldon
