Charmfactory has prepared me for the music industry far more effectively than my music degree ever did! Despite studying music at university, I left without a clear understanding of the industry’s inner workings. However, this program has completely changed that. I now feel confident and informed, ready to navigate my career without the naivety I once had. Rob and Jeremy are an incredible team, complementing each other perfectly, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! Bea M
