Case Studies

Scaling Revenue and Team Growth

SITUATION:

A boutique entertainment agency was generating modest revenue through artist bookings but lacked systems for scaling operations and revenue effectively.

TASK:

As the company’s lead strategist, I was tasked with developing a scalable structure to increase revenue, improve artist performance metrics, and build out a team that could manage national and international artist growth.

ACTION:

I introduced new verticals in marketing, consulting, and publishing, which diversified revenue streams. I also implemented KPI dashboards and CRMs for real-time performance tracking. I recruited, onboarded, and mentored a 12-person team, creating standardized workflows and cross-functional accountability. Training and retention plans were added to support the scale.

RESULT:

Over 3 years, company revenue grew from ~$1.5M to over $6M, bookings increased 400%, and client satisfaction improved dramatically. Team efficiency rose by over 60%, and client retention reached an all-time high.

Modernizing Booking & Operations (Saving $1M+)

SITUATION:

A leading music agency struggled with outdated, manual booking systems that caused double-bookings, errors in communications, and extensive time waste.

TASK:

I was brought in to lead the modernization of the booking and communication process across multiple departments to reduce operational drag and protect revenue.

ACTION:

I conducted a full systems audit and implemented a cloud-based CRM, integrated calendar and routing tools, automated client communication workflows, and trained staff on usage and compliance. I developed SOPs and checkpoints that ensured full visibility across team members and departments.

RESULT:

We eliminated 96 hours of manual labor per month, reduced communication errors by over 85%, and improved response time to clients and venues. These improvements saved the company over $1M annually in labor, lost bookings, and opportunity costs.

Launching an AI-Powered SaaS Product

SITUATION:

A need emerged for more advanced client management and marketing automation within the agency’s consulting and publishing divisions.

TASK:

I co-led a skunkworks project to build and launch an AI-powered SaaS platform that could be white-labeled for clients and partners.

ACTION:

Using GoHighLevel, I architected the platform’s structure, managed all API integrations, and designed onboarding and user experience. I oversaw content strategy, GTM planning, and internal training for clients and partners.

RESULT:

The SaaS product launched successfully within 60 days. Operational efficiency for early adopters rose by 40%, lead conversion improved by 35%, and it opened a new revenue stream that added an additional 6 figures annually to the business within the first year.

Delivering Global Impact Through Artist Development

SITUATION:

A rising artist with international philanthropic goals needed help launching her music career while supporting charitable initiatives tied to Mississippi State University and wildlife conservation.

TASK:

I was brought on to develop a strategic launch plan that would blend the artist’s music career with philanthropic impact, with limited resources and high expectations.

ACTION:

I guided the artist through single development, marketing, and video production. I leveraged industry relationships to book her debut performances in Nashville and coordinated press around her charitable alignment. I personally helped shape the storytelling and positioning of her brand.

RESULT:

The debut campaign exceeded fundraising expectations for the initiative and positioned the artist for sustained visibility across music and nonprofit media. It also strengthened our agency’s brand as socially conscious and highly effective in artist development.

My consulting sessions with Brad Stewart provided tangible value almost immediately, and have been instrumental in enhancing my success within the blues music community. Brad provided me with a wealth of practical advice and suggestions for ways to improve how I was presenting myself and my band to venues and promoters, and every session with Brad produced multiple suggestions and ideas that I followed up on immediately after each call. Brad has deep knowledge and experience with all aspects of the music industry, and I am grateful for the influence that Brad has had on my music career."

Billy Price

"Besides being so knowledgeable regarding the mechanics in so many directions of growing a musical artist, Brad cares for the person and their life and livelihood and how to best help guide in other important areas such as financial, health etc....that keep us all going; expanding both a fulfilling career and quality of life. He connects all the dots I'm in."

Deanna Bogart

"I worked with Brad consistently for 4 years and he always provided talented and professional entertainers for concerts and festivals I promoted and organized. Brad is a pro and is constantly working hard to continue to provide his quality services."

Travis Maynard

"Megan Bell was committed to supporting Oxford University's Wild CRU that is committed to protecting endangered animals and the environment around the world. Brad helped Megan book gigs in Nashville as she released her debut song Old School. Well beyond the call of duty as an agent, Brad helped with marketing, recording, and video production. As a result, significant money was raised and Megan's charitable objectives were exceeded. Amazing guy ... amazing professional ... highly recommend."
