I am looking into transferring to Drexel University to major in Music Industry. I’m almost positive that a portfolio is not required for Music Industry majors but I would like to send one in anyways.

For the past 2 years I have been in a touring band and I have found myself to take the more managerial role. With my experiences, I would like to document them in a portfolio some how but I am not sure exactly how I would do this . Off the top of my head I have came up with a list that shows the work I’ve done single-handily pertaining to the business aspect of being in a band as well as the industry itself.

Booking shows/east coast tour/weekend tours – hundreds of contacts
Getting merchandise produced through Terminus tees
Finding artist – Benjamin Lande for merchandise designs and artwork
Getting a spot on Infest 2008 – playing in front of 1,500 people
Selling tickets
Getting 1,000 EP’s pressed through diskmakers.com
Getting EP mastered @ West West Side music by Alan D.ouches (Very prominent engineer)
Recording EP @ Underground Sound Studio for 1 week
Running merch store out of my room through BigCartel
Getting music passes made
Getting press – Radio interviews, online interviews, EP reviews
Selling EP through various online stores cdbaby.com, itunes etc
Selling EP at various mom & pop record stores
Promoting EP through flyers, online
Promotions for a well known NJ promotion/booking agent - Avail Entertainment


Any help would be appreciated, thank you!
