Fancy opening up your own music rehearsal space? If you have a long contacts list, especially of musicians, then that's a great start.
By building a rehearsal space from scratch you would be able to build everything according to your own specifications that would work out more than well for your band and others.
We've trawled the web to find from others with a similar idea what they asked their musician contacts. You could either do this face-to-face, by phone or online. Ask respondents the same questions so you can easily quantify and summarise the results in a music rehearsal space survey.
Contact details are important to start with, but you could ask further questions to build a picture of what is currently available locally. This will help to identify if there is demand for something different or simply a need for more practice rooms. By asking your contacts what they would want to use will help you to quantify whether there is sufficient demand in setting up a music rehearsal space. And most importantly, will it pay for itself.
Music Rehearsal Space Questionnaire
Here are some questions you may want to think about asking your potential clients:
About yourself:
Where are you based?
How many people are in your band?
About where you currently rehearse:
Where does your band rehearse at the moment?
How often do you rehearse?
How long do you usually rehearse for?
How much do you pay? For how long?
What day(s) do you usually rehearse?
What time of day do you rehearse?
How do you get to and from your current rehearsal space?
How did you find out about the rehearsal space you are currently using?
What you would like to see:
Would you want available at the rehearsal studio a guitar amp, bass cab, drum kit and PA with mic?
Would you be interested in storing your in instruments and equipment at the space?
Would you want to record your practice?
Would it be useful to be able to buy accessories such as guitar strings, drum sticks and refreshments?
It might be worth suggesting once you've opened your rehearsal facility, respondents to your survey will be given priority booking.
