New musicians in the music industry often struggle to find their footing as they have no one to guide them. They wander aimlessly as they do not know how the industry works nor do they know how to distribute and promote their music.

The music industry is full of music pirates these days and piracy rates are growing by the minute. If you do not license your music then other musicians and non-musicians can use your music without giving you any credit.

As technology is making life easier, even musicians get their music recorded online with the help of software. They can also get their music licensed online, but what after that? Without contacts and proper guidance it is very difficult to make your mark in the music world. You have to know how to popularize your music, you have to know how to distribute it and get heard. In times like this, only a music supervisor and a music licensing and publishing company can help you. 

They help you to spread your music and make your presence felt. Now, music supervisors are in charge of handling the commercial end of your music career. They have the right contacts in all sorts of media and they know to distribute your music in the right way. They know how things work and what clicks. They also have experience enough to understand what kind of music will work for the audience. They also listen to your music and can gauge what kind of media it is perfect for. 

Now, some music supervisors have good contacts in the radio, some know television producers where many are acquainted with the advertisement world.  With their reference, they can use your compositions as background music for video games, as background music for Movie trailers and also as ad jingles. This is how they distribute your music you people in and connected to the industry can hear you. 

Once a producer listens to your score and likes it, your career is set. And once you start making more, quality music, good recording labels will sign you on. Before you know it, you will become a popular figure in the world of music. But, all this is possible only if you have a good music supervisor who knows his job. A good music supervisor will be able to understand your music and they will know exactly which type of media your music caters to.
