LEGENDARY MANAGER

Sign Up for Training

Author, educator and music industry veteran John Hartmann began his professional career in the famous mailroom of the William Morris Agency. He later served as the Morris Office liaison to Colonel Tom Parker the legendary manager of Elvis Presley.


The time and place of the Postmodern Music Industry is firmly entrenched in history. Holodigm Academy teaches artists and music managers how to transition into the digital paradigm.

Hartmann envisions the demise of corporate record companies, and the rise of artist owned and operated labels. 'Rock' is a comprehensive, do-it-yourself, guidebook on how to get out of the garage and into the business.
A must read for every baby band.
David Geffen - Dreamworks SKG

My goodness, what a great read! I certainly wish I'd had access to this book when I was growing up.
Things would have been much easier.
Graham Nash - Musician - Activist

John Hartmann is passionate, knowledgeable and experienced.
I'm interested in EVERYTHING he has to say.
Bob Lefsetz - The Lefsetz Letter

This book should be required reading for anyone desiring the unique adventure, and
ultimate reward, of exploring the business of music.
Jim Morey - Morey Management Group

A Brilliant book, by a brilliant man.
Michael Levine - Levine Communications

A pure poet walking naked in the woods
Sings his songs to the birds

When he chooses to make music
the Instrument of his survival

He must then steel himself
And the poet must become a WARRIOR!


The Map of Show Business

1 The Holodigm is a visualization that depicts what show business would look like if it was a board game. We have all heard the old axiom that our minds are like icebergs and ninety percent of them are under water. We only use the ten percent that is above the surface.

2 I ask all students of Holodigm Academy to burn this image in that part of your mind that is not currently in use. Go into that giant iceberg in your brain and carve out an imaginary space in the shape of a giant cube. Think of that cavern as your Ice-Box. Install in it a giant pyramid that contains a sphere. Now, click on the various elements of The Holodigm Map and visualize them in their symbiotic relationship.

3 As you execute your personal career and the careers of your clients 'see' each decision and choice as it relates to all the myriad possibilities. Think first, trust your instincts and take action on the choices that will bring duration and success to your business enterprises. Let your individual Holodigm be your guide.
