Book Reviews

"Priceless.."
"Trustworthy..."
"The author’s five rules and ten steps to success in the music industry are priceless. I would recommend, at a minimum, all high school and higher education music curriculums include this book in their reading list. Finally I commend the author for offering his availability via online and voice communications."

-L. McKinney, Florida
"Ruttenberg's methodology is rooted in his own success, so it’s trustworthy.  It’s a reference guide, a road map, a coach and a workbook all rolled into one.  You’ll feel like you’ve found yourself the perfect mentor who’s got your back as you head out the door to find your dream music job.  Short of having a personal relationship with Jay-Z, this is the next best thing."
-T. Masington, California
"Practical and Thoughtful..."
"Useful for students..."
"This is an extremely well written guide to the music business. The approach is practical and thoughtful - the author is clearly trying to make a personal connection with the reader to convey his years of experience and understanding of what it takes to succeed as a working musician in the digital age. Highly recommend."

-G. Pincus, Florida
"The information in this book is helpful for students looking for the best university and learning about the vast number of music related professions along with necessary research to assist in making decisions for a career in music. The author helps readers develop interview skills, how to use social networking, and clever and creative ways to stand out as a more desirable candidate for a job." 
​-R. Jonas, USA
"David has your back..."
"Authentic, down-to-earth..."
"This is a tour-de-force on how to get a job and build a career in the music industry. There are no get rich schemes or pop nonsense - David lays out step by step how to identify, target, prepare and then to land the job you want. Regardless of whether you want to be an FOH sound engineer at a top venue, or sales / marketing for a musical instrument manufacturer, or countless other jobs related to music (which he lays out very succinctly, by the way, along with expected pay scales, etc.), he has created your roadmap. You need to do the thinking and the work, of course, but knowing WHAT TO DO is mission critical, and David has your back."

-G. Malloy Smith, Rhode Island
"An incredibly approachable book with real world information from an authentic, down to earth perspective. It's almost like having your favorite uncle in the music industry guiding you along. As a 30 year veteran of the pro audio world I can say that David's advice can easily be applied to many different fields in the entertainment industry." 
- Dr. L. Gedemer, Woodland Hills
