Every artist dreams of making a lasting impact with their music.
There’s truly nothing like knowing your music is connecting, having your songs saved on thousands of playlists, reaching the right audience and getting you where you want to be in your career. There’s nothing more important than this.
Imagine, looking up from the stage to thousands of fans singing back the words to your songs while on tour. You’re in your element, connecting with your audience on a deep, soul-level, doing what you love.
What you were born to do.
This is not an unrealistic dream. You know it’s possible because you see thousands of artists doing it everyday, making their mark and changing the world with their music.
Do you know that you can step into that dream in as little as 3 months?
Step inside a 3 month songwriting incubator to elevate your music, transform your songs, and connect with your audience like never before.
Embrace the journey of self-discovery and unlock the extraordinary artist within, connecting with your truest emotions and experiences.
I'll get into how in just a moment, but first...
Your career soars on the wings of your songs.
While a devoted fan base, an extensive music catalog, and impeccable production can certainly help, they don’t hold the key to truly resonating with your audience and achieving the success and connection you crave.
And while, yes. There is no one-size-fits-all formula that guarantees a fast-track to success…there is a way to create music that resonates without sinking years and thousands of dollars into strategies that do not work.
Having spent three decades in the music industry, studying the careers of legends, I’ve witnessed a consistent pattern: it’s the songs that truly catapult artists to the top.
To be an extraordinary artist and experience your breakthrough moment, your music must align harmoniously with who you are.
While each of these are elements help, they are the icing on the cake. They don’t fully get to the root of what makes a song truly resonate with an audience, getting you to the place you really want to be with your music and your career. It’s so much more than just releasing singles, perfect marketing, a big audience, or a polished production.
After three decades in the music business—and looking at the careers of legends, we’ve seen a that with every artist who rose to the top, it was their songs that got them there.
There are specific elements within your songs that need to be in place before you can rise.
It starts with the “3 Keys to Success” and a process that dives into the heart of who YOU are to get that message, vision, sound and direction crafted into every piece of your songs.
To be a great artist and reach your breakthrough, your music has to align with who you are.
When you don’t do that, here’s what happens…
You think you wrote a pretty good song – maybe it’s great? You rush to record and release it. You get some good engagement, but in general, no matter how many songs you release, you stay pretty much in the same place.
Like most artists, you think it’s your lack of marketing and reach.
So you spend hours on Youtube learning how to boost your presence on Instagram and run Facebook ads. You spin your wheels – sometimes years – hoping to get your songs to connect.
Still, your music isn’t getting you to the place where your career is sustainable… and you’re down to your last dollar in your bank account, wondering how much longer you can hold out.
Marketing is not the problem.
When music is rushed and lacks the proper cultivation and polish, your songs inevitably lose their shine.
Crafting songs that deeply resonate with an audience requires dedication, refinement, and meticulous attention. It’s a process of sculpting and strengthening every aspect of your work until it reaches its full potential.
Behind the scenes of every remarkable song lies a foundation that was solidified before it soared.
Your success in music is only as good as your songs.
It’s like a movie that falls flat.
In retrospect, the director realizes the script wasn’t strong enough, or the acting just didn’t feel quite right. Or worse, that the actors didn’t have that “zing” – that chemistry that makes “MAGIC”. But the problem is, that you can’t go back and “fix it” it after the fact.
In reality, movie is only as good its script. It’s the same with your music. No amount of production can fix a weak song or collection of material.
And this is the REAL problem.
In the rush to get music out, without the due process needed to cultivate and polish your songs into the diamonds they deserve to be, songs like the weak script, will fall flat.
Writing great songs that bond with an audience requires time, editing, tweaking, massaging and finessing to get your work on a level that will connect. There are pieces at work under the surface of a great song that need to be well established before they can fly.
The truth is, Your success in music is only as good as your songs.
It’s not just about writing a good song…
It’s about writing a song that’s connected to your soul.
These are the songs that resonate the most.
And we have a process that can get you there in just three months.
Are you ready to experience it?
Next Program: July 24, 2024 – October 9, 2024
You need a different approach, one that can help you find THE “MAGIC.”
You see, it’s not just about writing a good song…
It’s about writing a song that’s connected to your soul. These are the songs that resonate the most.
And we have a process that can get you there in just 3 months.
Are you ready to experience it?
Imagine in 3 months, how it would feel to....
In my days as an artist, I, too, struggled to find my sound and direction. With an interest in many different genres, I didn't know how to develop myself, and I spent a lot of time floundering.
It wasn't until I learned how to recognize my strengths, stop comparing myself to other artists, and allow myself to be authentic, that I found my place.
When I finally had the courage to be myself and the skill and experience to back it up, I stepped into my true artistry. Shortly after, I got signed and came out with a record resonating with thousands.
After seeing so many artists face the same struggles, I wanted to help you get there faster. That's why I created a simple step-by-step method that takes you on the journey of finding your sound, identifying your strengths, and writing songs straight from your soul. No more years—or even decades—of trying to figure it all out independently.
Why not access a proven process that has helped thousands of artists skip over the long road of development and achieve the success they were after? Artists using this method are gaining millions of streams, earning accolades, charting, and landing management, label, and licensing deals.
If you are ready to take your songs to the next level and stop putting out singles or EPs that fall into the fray, join us to write THE songs of your career. Experience the true fulfillment that comes from making music that you are proud of. Heck, to stand on that Grammy stage if that's what you want! My artists have! And you can too.
Your most powerful music ever is inside…

Like Alexayndra – who said,
I feel like when we’re all alone, it’s just all up in the ether and you just see so much online and you can get stuck in that. SSC took the confusion out and redirected it back to my music and what my real soul’s purpose and journey are. It asked what my truth was – and then supported the bringing out of that. Cari has been a critical aid and guide and without which none of this dream of mine would be coming together as developed or as beautiful as it is now. For the first time in a long time, I am excited about my music again. It’s incredible.

Meagan’s songs were well crafted and produced on a high level.
But the music wasn’t quite representing who she really is.
“SSC was a big game changer for me. Cari and her team are thoughtful, caring and have been pivotal in propelling me forward as a singer and artist. Working with Cari is a beautiful balance of technique and strategy mixed with heart and soul.
This process is really healing actually. I feel so proud of these songs. These songs are my life story in a way that I can share with the world that helps other people too. These songs are so rich and so deep and have so much meaning to me and people feel it too. I just can’t imagine doing it in any other way.”
~ MEAGAN SKY
Now that Meagan’s music truly reflects her and her journey, the results have been transformational. On day one of the release, she attracted a manager and a licensing deal followed shortly after.

2 – A collection of songs that are connected together, and connected to your soul.

What our SSC Alumni Are Saying
“SSC changed so much for me, I was really lost and I just couldn’t quite figure out what it was. There’s really nothing like this program that provides such intensive support and resources for artists to really bring out what they truly want. SSC took the confusion out of the picture for me and redirected it back to what my real soul’s purpose and journey is. And then supported me in bringing out my best. It’s been an Incredible experience for me.”
ALEXAYNDRA
“I became a full time musician pretty much thanks to Cari Cole. I’ve always been a bit apprehensive about co-writing, but going through the A&R process with Cari and working on a brand-new song with the team was a dream come true. In SSC I learned how to write songs like a pro, get my lyrics together, get the melodies in the right place. I can’t thank her enough. You would be really wise to check out this program, it comes highly recommended.”
ELI LEV
“Cari seems to have an innate sensitivity towards people’s true selves. She has helped me get to the bottom of my message and is able to see the parts of my songs that need some work. Cari saw and believed in my potential, I think, even more than I did. With her council I showcased for labels, formed relationships with music managers and became a signed artist. I know if it weren’t for Cari, I would still just be dreaming of what could be.”
RAINSFORD
“This whole process in SSC honestly has been one of the most amazing things I have ever experienced. Having you as a mentor Cari has been fantastic, your wisdom is very enlightening, I really appreciate everything you do for us artists. I’ve had so many realizations as a writer to write songs that make more of an impact.”
LILLY YAN
“I am now writing at a level that would have taken me at least 10 more years to master without Cari and her award-winning chart-topping team of songwriters. Through the process of working with Cari’s method I’ve been able to realize my value. I think what she’s doing is a movement and a movement that we deserve. “
CRISTAL MARIE
“Bottom line SSC is therapy. It forces you to be professional and really get to that next level where you can be, no matter where you are at, no matter what level you are on. I’ve had publishing and success in my career prior to SSC, but now I can see things on a whole new level of artistry. Thank you Cari Cole!

“The thing that instantly drew me to Cari’s program was that the main focus was on ME as a human being-not just my product.

Every single person in the program is SO encouraging and inviting and WARM.

Here is exactly what some of our artists experienced before they were transformed through our signature process in SSC:
With SSC, you can overcome each of these in just 3 months.
Are you ready to get started?
"The Signature Songwriting Circle is a program designed to uplevel your songwriting, develop your sound + direction and write your next album in just 3 months. If you’ve already tried songwriting programs that failed to deliver, it’s important to understand that songwriting techniques on their own aren't enough. It's the process of finding your authentic voice and message in a way that elevates your songs and puts YOU in them." ~ Cari Cole
The Signature Songwriting Circle is different than other songwriting programs because:
If you’re still here, it shows how deeply committed you are to your music.
And I have one question for you…
You’ll be in the same place 3 months from now, if you don’t take action. Do it! Do it Now! You may not have enough belief in yourself. Believe me, I know where you are. After all, I created SSC out of my own experience and frustration as an artist – myself!
I GUARANTEE that once you apply the CCVM Alchemical Process and artistic principles learned in the Signature Songwriting Circle and we take that deep dive to pull those great songs out of you, you’ll step into your true path as an artist, just like I did – and so many SSC Alumni have.
Once you align with these principles, that’s when you connect with your audience like you never have before. They can feel it too and that’s where the REAL MAGIC happens.
Take advantage of this opportunity to transform you and your music.
If you wait, you are only postponing your true destiny.
Wouldn’t you rather step into 2024 with a collection of songs that you are truly proud of—that you would fight for?
The Universe is calling.
See you in class!
Here’s what happens if you DON’T get started now:
An offer like this doesn’t come along often. And we only open this program once a year.
