I've been with IOTM for almost 10 years. In that time, I've utilized a great number of their resources and services, including consultation, the Do It Together program and the Deluxe membership. I went from having no idea how to plan a tour to now being a full-timer with mileage, and I can thank Kyle and the team for that. The site is such a valuable resource to me and I'm so glad to have a relationship with them. I recommend them to any musician who performs or releases content. Five stars.
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/PeteHenryMusicOur music community needs more people like Kyle and the Indie On The Move team, who truly champion the artist and understand what it takes to propel a career forward in music. At every stage of the process whether it's sending out booking pitches or tailoring the perfect EPK, you feel supported, guided and as though your career is in really good hands. Couldn't ask for anything better!
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/OfficialMariamiKyle is one of the best communicators I've encountered in the music business. From start to finish, the marketing consultation provided by Indie on the Move was a great experience. The consultant assigned to our project happened to be a local musician to our hometown with years of booking experience. He provided excellent insight and was a pleasure to work with. After spending countless hours this spring reaching out to venues and trying to book shows in surrounding cities on our own, only to yield a few results, the IOTM consultation and our 1st booking campaign has yielded half a dozen quality shows in a handful of regional markets, and has also opened the line of communication to around a dozen other venues who are open to potential shows in the future. All of this in about a couple week's time and with minimal effort on the band's part (if your band has little to no published content and doesn't have much of an online presence, I'd absolutely fix that before trying to book shows- this is just my suggestion). The IOTM consultation helped us refine our booking strategy and provided great tips on ways to be more efficient and successful with booking shows. I absolutely recommend these services to any band trying to get off the ground in terms of booking! Thanks Kyle and IOTM team!
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/Status_FoeKyle and the IOTM did an excellent job preparing us for the campaign we were running to book shows for Ben DeHan. Expectations were clearly set, communication was consistent, and we successfully filled up a number of dates on Ben's calendar in 2022 that otherwise might have been left open. We appreciate the care and attention to detail taken to keep us on track with helping artist's meet their goals.
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/AlchemicalDanI was recommended IOTM by some musician friends of ours and decided to give it a try. We didn’t know what to expect when we joined up with them to help us book shows but after our consultation we were very impressed. Communication was excellent and they definitely love helping indie musicians. They reached out to a lot of venues on our behalf and we received several responses and a few offers and and booked our first non local shows. We are a fairly new band and don’t have a lot of press or achievements outside of our local area and wasn’t really sure how to start and they showed us the path. They helped us update our website and gave very good advice for every question we had. Using their outline we have a clear path to go from small town famous to the indie band playing shows on the road. We didn’t get a tour booked our first round of emails but they did give us a plan that will help us and I am very satisfied with there service. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get to the next level in their music careers. Every single person I talked to was a class act and genuinely wanted to help us. Great communication and on top of returning emails. We would recommend to anyone looking to level up on their music careers.
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/UncleJesseKyle and IOTM helped alot with everything from making sure all aspects of our website were done correctly to planning and sending out emails to venues in the areas we selected. Any questions we had were answered and always there for assistance. Its a complex and complicated industry and having help really makes a big difference. -Tacenda Ash
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/tacendaash22Kyle and the good people at IOTM have put up a valuable data base for independent and underground live show bookings. I have never seen anything quite like. They know how to access and how to use these resources in a jiffy and can show you how it's done. Esp. useful are direct contacts to talent buyers not always apparent on venue websites. There are also incisive tutorials linked to the site, newsletter, and multi facets to help guide you through the thickets and swamps of DIY artist initiated booking. When a concert agent informed us, he no longer had time to do justice to the custom tour we were seeking, he kindly recommended IOTM as a resource he himself has been using for his entire career. Right, so it has taken us in the band over seven (7) weeks to hook up a five (5) week coast-to-coast venture with only a couple of Mondays off. We are still flogging about nine (9) gaps some of which are presently in negotiation. Outcome is: we are getting the tour we want with some unexpected and favorable surprises along the way. What more can you ask for?
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/TavFalco"We can’t say enough good things about Kyle and IOTM! We recommend them to every indie artist we meet. Sirsy is an indie pop/rock band that plays a lot of shows! (We have toured for a living for the last 15 years playing 200 - 250 shows per year all over the US.) Every time we meet another indie artist, they ask us how we book the shows we do - and I ALWAYS recommend IOTM. Kyle is professional, timely, kind, and very helpful. Even after all these years of doing this for a living he can still teach us a thing or two. It’s hard to break into new markets and new cities. IOTM makes it easy. We always get a gig that pays us far more than our investment and we build on that for future tours. It’s truly a great service. We know it sounds too good to be true, but it’s real. We promise!"
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/SIRSYI didn’t know where to begin when starting to plan my tour. I was investigating venues and found the whole process extremely time-consuming. I talked to the team at IOTM and they cleared up so many questions. They helped me plan out my tour and gave my pitch email and website a good once over. It was very constructive and saved me so much time. I would recommend their services to everyone!
https://www.indieonthemove.com/users/karlmchughKyle and his company are LIFESAVERS, and I owe my full schedule to them. Before was a hassle trying to book these venues. But, they waved a magic wand, got my website up to par, and now I am booked all the way past the summer. I'm beyond grateful for everything IOTM has done and recommended their services to anyone who want to get things moving. If you want to do that... then here is your answer. Thanks Guys for all you do. Keep doing it. Will definitely continue to use your services. Sweet Randi Love
