Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

To utilize the professional documentation in order to achieve an increase in the awareness of my music. I would evaluate the success of my project by a greater awareness of my music. This would be measured through visits to my website, expanded broadcasts, orders and performances of my music and an increase in commissions and grants.

Measurable Outcome(s)

My music has received a greater awareness through increased visits to my website, orders and more widespread performances. I have compared the clicks on my website and orders before and after my new and improved site. While I'm not able to track every performance of my music, the ones I am able to monitor are more numerous and widespread than before the project. It is too early at this point to evaluate the projected expanded broadcasts and commissions and grants.
