If you’re like most musicians, you’ve probably dreamed about hearing your tracks on TV shows, films, and commercials. Maybe you’ve even sent out a few emails, submitted some tracks to music libraries, or taken a few online courses, but the big placements never came.
Here’s the truth. Breaking into sync isn’t about luck. It’s about understanding how this industry really works, building real connections, and knowing exactly how to position your tracks for the right opportunities.
I know this because I’ve been in this game for over 20 years. My first publisher was my songwriting teacher at Berklee College of Music, and she was the one who
first opened my eyes to the world of sync licensing. She taught me that it’s not just about writing great songs, but about understanding the context in which those songs are used, the relationships that drive the industry, and the strategies that actually get tracks placed.
Since then, I’ve placed hundreds of tracks in TV shows, films, commercials, and video games. I’ve helped hundreds of artists
land thousands of placements in projects around the world. I’ve learned what works and what doesn’t. I’ve seen talented musicians struggle for years because they didn’t have a clear roadmap, and I’ve seen others break through quickly once they figured out the real rules of the game.
Along the way, I’ve had the chance to sit down with some of the most influential people in the sync world, learning
directly from the best in the business. I’ve taken what I learned from these conversations and combined it with my own real-world experience to create a step-by-step system for landing placements.

Why I Created The Sync Tank
These conversations, combined with my own experiences and the lessons I’ve learned over the past 20 years, are what inspired me to create The Sync
Tank.
I wanted to build a program that doesn’t just give you information, but actually guides you step by step through the entire process of breaking into sync licensing. I’m talking about finding the right contacts, crafting the perfect pitch, negotiating fair deals, and landing real placements that pay you for years.
Most musicians waste years sending out cold emails, pitching to the wrong people, or just hoping for a lucky break. That’s a recipe for burnout, not success. The Sync Tank is about cutting through the noise and giving you a clear, repeatable system for landing real placements.
