I want to get a few steady gigs as a jazz guitar player, preferably in a duo or trio setting to “bless” (so to say) other musicians, too.
I’m finding a hard time to go to restaurants/cafés/hotels and pitch myself and my musical services, although I know for sure that I can be an asset for them.
Can you give me any tips - mentality wise - that helped you in similar situations? Would really appreciate any comment 💛

I would recommend showing the rest./cafes/hotels surveys of the percentage of people that go somewhere to hear the live music. Or said a different way, you could show them the percentage increase in business at places you play comparing before they had live music with after.
You could even offer to play for free and then compensate you your rate once they see an increase in revenue.
Happy to discuss more if I can be of help. I am located in the Midwest.
Sorry mate, learn a new skill 🤝
