I never even really got to their service unfortunately. I saw an Instagram video for the Full-time Musician's Academy from Booklive. The founder lived in Denver, where I live, so I was interested. Signed up to watch the masterclass and it was just a trigger for this deluge of texts and emails. I started getting texted by a chat bot claiming to be Jared the founder. It wanted to talk about my music career to which I obliged for a while. It got repetitive and annoying, mentioning the same artist that they helped make $100k multiple times and constantly pivoting to booking a call. I hadn't even watched the masterclass yet and kept saying as much but one text later the bot is trying to book a call again. Eventually I ignored it. Meanwhile, I'm receiving 2-3 emails a day from them trying to get me to sign up. 25 emails in 8 days. They kept texting. Then I got a call from a human. Ok, I booked a meeting for the next day. A few times I asked them to chill out on the full court pressure. Even mentioned it to the human I spoke to on the phone and they agreed fully, thanked me for saying something. They also hated the pressure sales funnel. Ok, I'm willing to proceed. In the less than 24 hrs after signing up for a call I got 3 more emails and 3 more texts. They want me to confirm the meeting I booked a few hours ago. Watch a different mandatory 15 min video before the call that's taking place in 2 hours. Finally I just emailed them back that I wanted to postpone the call. All these high pressure sales and marketing tactics were turning me off. It didn't feel like a company I wanted to be involved with anymore and I apologized for backing out. At that point, I got a very snarky and long email from the person I was supposed to meet with. Some guy in Vegas, Jeff Celentano. The email was just to insult me in multiple ways, accuse me of not watching the video they sent (I did and had said so), tell me they were a way more successful musician than me, wish me luck cuz I'm gonna need it, blah blah. Their service might be good but at this point I'll never find out. They couldn't take yes for an answer.

Booklive is one of my essential daily tools to organize and my music act. It sources out leads and contacts and is continously is growing and updating its features. It's a must have form me and great value.

Booklive is essential for Professional Gigging Musicians. It keeps me organized, and it helps keep my business workflow on track. The automated emails that are sent to clients are helpful, and they give me more time to focus on making music. I love being able to create a contract and send it to my clients, manage timelines and playlists, and even manage invoicing from the platform. Clients love using it, too, and mention how professional and easy to use it is. It's a one-stop shop - no need for too many different tools to manage my business. Thank you, Booklive!

Despite doing a consultation first, Jared is just a high pressure sales person and knew we weren’t a good match. We had more music experience than him, more degrees, more marketing experience and our website already outranked his own personal performance sites. Yet he did not do the ethical thing and tell us we were already better than him, he pitched his pitch which was lies. Even his own “JaredGpt” part of the gimmick told us we shouldn’t have been duped, and he owed us a refund and an apology. His own software said we were smarter and better than him, and that he owed us a refund and could learn from us!!! He gave us a partial refund and now I’m being constantly spammed by his ridiculous excuse for a company. Don’t fall for his tricks. When you listen carefully even his pitches are fake. He gives different versions in interviews and pitches as to how the company came to be- who was it, him or his wife? His idea or hers? Which one created it and which one runs it because it’s different versions floating out there 🙄 Definitely not worth the time or the money.

So far, through BookLive, I’ve learned a great deal—especially about marketing and positioning myself as an artist. The honesty and sincerity of the program truly deserve recognition, particularly the work of Jared, with whom I have the pleasure of studying and learning strategies that, even in a short time, have helped me open my mind not only as a musician, but also as an entrepreneur. Because the music business is not just about playing music. It’s also about understanding how to reach people, how to communicate what you do, and how to position yourself in the market. And I believe BookLive focuses precisely on that essential aspect: learning how to present and share what you are with honesty, clarity, and authenticity.

They help you with the learning curve and there's a lot to learn! Really great system once you learn it and utilize it. And they keep upgrading and making new discoveries to make it better and easier.

Very turnkey and intuitive. Much easier than all the other Music based CRM solutions. Support is always available with real time replies. The Website builder is worth the price alone.... High Recommend!

They have thought of everything! I mean every little detail! This is such a helpful program for wedding and event musicians!! Super job!
