Christmas is coming! Why not make it the season to be well & truly jolly by giving a music-making friend or loved one a subscription to The Unsigned Guide?! They’ll be so grateful we guarantee they’ll give you their share of roast potatoes on Christmas Day!
The Unsigned Guide is an essential toolkit for bands, musicians, music students or anyone aspiring towards a career in the music industry….so if this sounds like someone you know, you have the perfect present right here! There are many benefits to becoming a member, which we’ll tell you all about below, and subscriptions are great value with monthly, quarterly or annual options available.
“But how do I wrap a subscription & put it under the Christmas tree?”, we hear you ask! Well, if you purchase as a present we’ll email you a special festive gift token which you can pop into your loved one’s Christmas card.
We’ll also make sure the membership starts from Christmas Day, no matter when you paid for it. We’ll send you the login details to access The Unsigned Guide straight away but we’ll make sure the access is extended so your first calendar month runs from the 25th December - so if you buy a month’s membership on 1st December, you don’t need to worry about it running out on 1st January!
If you are interested in getting an Unsigned Guide subscription as a Christmas gift, just drop us a line here with your name and ‘Gift’ as the subject, and we’ll be in touch with you from there.
So now, let us take you through the benefits of being an Unsigned Guide member…
