Since 2007, Mike's songs have been heard on hundreds of network TV shows and feature films such as Bloodline (Netflix), NCIS Los Angeles (CBS), Life In Pieces (CBS), Gotham (FOX) , "Passengers" (2016), to name just a few. On this Music Growth Talks episode, Mike Goudreau shares what he's learnt during the 10 years of hard music licensing work. We talk about non-exclusive vs. exclusive deals, finding good licensing companies, reaching out to music supervisors directly, creating a catalogue that doesn't get old, and much more. Listen to the episode to also learn a few file and meta management tips, and the kind of an "exclusive" licensing deal you don't want to get into. ⏯ Go to http://dottedmusic.com/2017/podcast/mgt96-mike-goudreau/ for the show notes and http://musicgrowthtalks.com to subscribe to t
