Sync isn't a talent contest — it's a trust test. Your first sync licensing placement won't go to your best song. It'll go to the song that clears the FASTEST. In Part 2 of The Playbook, I'm walking you through the five gates your music has to pass before anybody writes you a check — the exact system behind placements on Disney, Netflix, McDonald's, and a Reese's Puffs spot streamed over a billion times. 🎁 FREE — THE SYNC PITCH KIT The exact pitch email template, 7 subject-line formulas, the brief-response checklist, and a one-page Five Gates Self-Audit so you can find the gate that's blocking you: → https://sunobootcamp.com/synckit?src=...
