Ep. 116 Rejection, Resilience & Running the Sync Marathon

In this episode of Music Is My Business, Clint shares community wins and answers live questions about navigating rejection, building resilience, and treating sync like a marathon rather than a sprint. He highlights why patience and persistence are crucial for landing placements, how to handle libraries that don’t deliver results right away, and why you should never give up on a track after one rejection.  

Clint also discusses practical business steps like forming an LLC, working with libraries versus agencies, researching publishers, and handling metadata for covers.
