# Kortnee McCall\-Simmons — I help musicians, producers, and emerging artists build a solo career while managing multiple creative disciplines. _United States_ Profile: https://www.everyexpert.com/kortneemcs ## About I'm a singer-songwriter, actor, and producer who's performed alongside major artists and appeared in productions like *The Get Down*—and I use those experiences to help musicians navigate the business side of a multi-hyphenate career. I work with artists and producers who are juggling music, acting, production, or other creative disciplines, helping them build sustainable careers without losing momentum across their different projects. Most emerging artists treat each discipline separately, which creates chaos and burnout. I help you see them as part of one integrated career strategy. I've learned that success comes from treating your art like a business, protecting your energy across multiple roles, and knowing when to say no—so you can actually finish what you start and make real money doing it. ## Sessions I offer - [Artist Ecosystem Audit & Roadmap \(1:1 Strategy Call\)](https://www.everyexpert.com/kortneemcs/book/ecosystem-audit-roadmap-11-strategy-call) — 1 hour, $225 A deep-dive strategy session for artists, producers, and multi-hyphenates who juggle many roles and need one unified plan. We’ll map your current projects (music, content, gigs, brand, admin), identify what’s blocking momentum, and design a 90-day ecosystem roadmap covering release strategy, content pillars, income streams, and systems that fit your real life and resources. - [Solo Career Launch Blueprint \(Emerging Artists\)](https://www.everyexpert.com/kortneemcs/book/solo-career-launch-blueprint-emerging-artists) — 1 hour, $225 For artists and producers launching or relaunching a solo career from scratch or from a group. We’ll clarify your artistic identity, audience, and lane, then outline practical steps for building your catalog, visual branding, social presence, live strategy, and foundational business setup (distribution, splits, PRO, admin) on an independent budget. - [Multi\-Discipline Creative Life Design \(For "Slash" Creatives\)](https://www.everyexpert.com/kortneemcs/book/multi-discipline-creative-life-design-for-slash-creatives) — 1 hour, $250 This session is for creatives who are singer-songwriters / producers / actors / writers all at once and feel pulled in ten directions. We’ll design a sustainable weekly structure, prioritize your disciplines seasonally, and create a simple operating system that turns your many talents into one aligned portfolio instead of scattered side-hustles. - [Song & Production Feedback for Release\-Ready Records](https://www.everyexpert.com/kortneemcs/book/song-production-feedback-for-release-ready-records) — 45 min, $150 Bring 1–3 songs (demo or near-final) and get detailed, honest feedback from a manager/producer’s perspective. We’ll review topline, structure, production choices, and emotional arc, then discuss whether each track is a single, project cut, or needs more work—and what that work is. You’ll leave with clear revision notes and a release plan for your strongest record. - [Single / EP Release Strategy Session](https://www.everyexpert.com/kortneemcs/book/single-ep-release-strategy-session) — 1 hour, $200 You have music ready or almost ready, but no rollout plan. In this session we’ll define your release goals, pick the right lead single(s), set realistic timelines, and design a lean promo strategy across platforms (social, visual content, email, IRL moments) that respects both your budget and your bandwidth. You’ll get a simple release calendar you can execute. - [Live Show & Performance Development \(For Artists & Musicians\)](https://www.everyexpert.com/kortneemcs/book/live-show-performance-development-for-artists-musicians) — 1 hour, $225 For artists who want their live show to match the quality of their records. We’ll review your set (or plans for one), talk through transitions, arrangements, and crowd engagement, and shape a performance arc that tells a story. You’ll leave with a refined setlist, staging/arrangement ideas, and practice priorities for your next gigs or showcases. - [Artist Brand & Story Clarifier](https://www.everyexpert.com/kortneemcs/book/artist-brand-story-clarifier) — 1 hour, $225 A focused session to clarify who you are in the marketplace and how that shows up everywhere you appear. We’ll define your core story, aesthetic lanes, and audience, then translate that into visuals, bio language, social voice, and content themes so your presence feels cohesive across platforms and press materials. - [EPK, Website, and Profile Tune\-Up](https://www.everyexpert.com/kortneemcs/book/epk-website-and-profile-tune-up) — 1 hour, $200 Bring your existing EPK, website, and key profiles (DSPs, social, casting, etc.) and we’ll go line by line. You’ll get real-time edits to copy, image selection, structure, and calls-to-action, plus recommendations on what’s missing (press photos, live clips, landing pages) so industry and fans can quickly understand and book you. - [Content & Social Strategy for Working Artists](https://www.everyexpert.com/kortneemcs/book/content-social-strategy-for-working-artists) — 45 min, $175 This is for artists who know they “should post” but need a plan that doesn’t burn them out. We’ll align your creative goals with platform choices (TikTok, Reels, YouTube, etc.), design simple recurring content formats, and map a 30-day content plan that slots into your actual creative schedule rather than competing with it. - [Artist Business Foundations: Money, Admin, and Rights](https://www.everyexpert.com/kortneemcs/book/artist-business-foundations-money-admin-and-rights) — 1 hour, $275 Ideal for independent artists who feel lost on the business and admin side.

We’ll zoom out to look at your catalog, brand, relationships, and revenue streams, then design a 1–3 year career architecture: phases, target milestones, team roles you’ll need, and leverage points to move from hustle-mode into a more stable, owner-led structure. - [Creative Operations Systems: Notion, Calendars, and Workflows](https://www.everyexpert.com/kortneemcs/book/creative-operations-systems-notion-calendars-and-workflows) — 1 hour, $200 This is for the creative who is talented but disorganized. We’ll audit how you currently track ideas, sessions, releases, and tasks, then design a simple system using tools you already have (calendars, notes, project boards) so nothing slips through the cracks and every creative season has a clear, trackable plan. - [Piano Lesson \(1:1 Skill Dev Call\)](https://www.everyexpert.com/kortneemcs/book/piano-lesson-11-skill-dev-call) — 1 hour, $65 For piano lessons and coaching.
