• A lengthy list of links and tips for self-listing your show.

“I can't recommend the concierge service enough! As a fellow artist, Pete was able to describe and distill the nuances of my weird, experimental event into a digestible, press-ready form. All for a very reasonable rate. He saved me scores of hours of work for a result that far exceeded what I would have been able to execute on my own.”

- Rob Reese, Producer/Director AvantProv

Pete will guide you through the process of determining your goals, strategizing your outreach, and identifying effective ways to get your project noticed by the press that reaches your projects’ audience. Please note at this time, Pete’s Concierge Package is only available for NYC-based projects. Pete also provides consultation for projects outside of NYC.
