Disclosure and Legal Stuff
You may see affiliate links on some of the MusicIsMyBiz blog posts. We’re not trying to be sleazy by pushing stuff on you. We only link to products that we use or believe strongly in that we think you may benefit from. If you decide to purchase them, that just helps us pay the bills (and we thank you for that). So does the various advertising you see. Rest assured, we’re not just here to make a buck off of you!
We love helping people by giving our professional opinions. But know that they are just that: opinions. We’re not lawyers, so, while we’ve had some considerable experience with certain matters (e.g. contracts, copyrights, etc.), our advice should always be backed up by an attorney. In fact, here’s some more advice: always consult an attorney when it comes to contracts and copyright issues (I’ll waive our consultation fee on that tip). We’re here to help steer you in the right direction, but please don’t hold it against us if our advice doesn’t fit your particular situation.
