All In-House Entertainment wants artists to make money off their music, not just gather streams for "streaming sake."

And to demonstrate this mission, All In-House Entertainment now offers its management, marketing, and consulting services starting at just $1.00. 

Thats right, prices for each of our services listed starts at $1.00.

So if you are an artist with champagne dreams and a beer budget, then this article is for you!

However, there is a catch…. First and foremost, this new model is reserved for artists accepted into AIH Ent.'s Emerging Artist Program. If you haven't submitted your application to join the ultimate Emerging Artist Program, then do so ASAP.  This is not an opportunity you'll want to miss out on if you are serious about increasing your visibility as an artist, for an affordable price, while working with a team to advance your career.

Secondly, once admitted into the Emerging Artist program, you are given access to a private marketplace where artists can ‘Pay What They Want’ for label services starting at $1.00. 

Although the services start at a $1.00, artists are encouraged to pay the label a ‘Fair Price’ that is recommended in the description of each service offered. 

Basically you can pay less or more based on how much you value the work, how quickly you need it done, and what you can truly afford as part of your overall budget. 

Services offered include: 

• Lease Audits
• Marketing Plan
• Music Release Plan
• Album Cover Arts
• Creation and Delivery of Stickers and Print Marketing 
• Press Review
• Performance Scouting In Your Area

But for those looking to take advantage of these label services by merely paying a dollar, be forewarned. Paying  $1, or an unreasonably low price for a service that requires serious hours, may subject your project to being delayed or rejected, based on competing demands from other artists who pay a fair price. 

While the label wants to help everyone, artists who pay a fair price for their projects will be prioritized over artists who do not. But don't worry, a member of the AIH team will reach out to negotiate, or otherwise understand the circumstances and amount proposed before rejecting a project. Life happens, we get it. 

After each project is completed, AIH Ent. will ask the artist about the the label's professionalism, quality of the work, and delivery turnaround time, to gauge satisfaction of the services given in light of the price paid. Based on this feedback, AIH Ent. can improve and expand our services where possible. At the end of the day, our services are both geared to and for the artist's budget.

Once accepted into the Emerging Artist program, each artist pays a membership due amount of $10.00. The dues guarantee the artist a website page to sell their music and access to label services offered at competitive and unmatched market prices. 

This is an opportunity to work with a real team. We the understand the challenges of the modern day hip-hop artist and are able to offer affordable services that help you advance your career, rather than offer you an advance that will stifle it. If that sounds ideal, then AIH Ent. is ready to take your career to the next level.
