Start by applying for funding. Once approved, you’ll unlock access to personalized artist support — including the chance to connect with select Pros from our network, depending on your goals and availability.

Pros in our network bring a wide range of experience — from A&R and production to publishing and artist management. Depending on your needs and their background, they may offer creative input on your music, help you think through release strategies, or share insider knowledge about how to navigate the industry. Support is flexible and meant to meet you where you are in your journey.

No — if you’ve been funded by Xposure Music, connections to Pros are included as part of your overall artist success plan. There are no hidden costs, subscriptions, or booking fees. We don’t treat these conversations as paid services — instead, they’re offered selectively as part of the support you receive after funding, when we believe a Pro’s input could truly help you move forward.

Yes, absolutely. Our Pros often have experience across multiple genres or focus on areas like release strategy, digital marketing, or creative development that apply to artists of all types. Whether you’re making R&B, indie rock, electronic, or something totally niche — if you’re talented and motivated, we want to help connect you with the right people.

You can talk about whatever matters most to you — your latest songs, rollout plans, challenges you’re facing, or questions about how the industry works. Some artists use these conversations to get clarity on next steps, while others seek feedback on how to stand out. The goal is to give you practical, honest insights from someone who’s been there before.

Yes — all conversations and music shared with a Pro are kept confidential. Your creative work and questions are treated with respect, and nothing you submit will be shared beyond that connection. This privacy ensures that you can speak openly and get the most value from the experience.

While it’s not the purpose of the platform, meaningful connections sometimes evolve into new opportunities. That said, we never promise outcomes like signing or management. Think of these interactions as part of your long-term growth — a chance to learn, build trust, and potentially open doors through honest, organic relationships.
