the company

Who We Are
MakeMusic, Inc. is the world leader in software and systems for music educators and musicians. Among our leading products are Finale®, the world's best-selling music notation software and SmartMusic®, the complete music practice system that features Intelligent Accompaniment® and the world's largest interactive accompaniment library.

Our Market
Music educators and music makers worldwide. In the U.S. alone there are more than 100,000 music educators and more than 60 million active music makers (playing an instrument or singing at least once a month).

Our Mission
To enhance and transform the experience of making music, teaching music, and learning music.

Our Strategy
MakeMusic is the only company that creates, owns and licenses the most advanced and patented technologies and solutions that support the composition, arranging, teaching, learning and playing of music. This creates a major barrier to entry for competitors. MakeMusic's solutions independently are already established as market leaders; collectively they create a huge advantage for music educators, music makers and the professionals serving them such as music publishers.

Key aspects of our business strategy

  • Focus on serving the needs of music educators, the key influencers in the worldwide market of music makers
  • Compete on the basis of solutions built upon a blend of leading and patented technologies and content
  • Exploit database marketing to build strong, profitable and long-term relationships with customers
  • Distribute solutions through the best mix of digital delivery, retail and mail-order
  • Leverage internal cash flows from a few, market-leading products and manage the growth of the company in discrete steps
  • Attract and retain the best management talent to build a world-class business serving music makers
  • Build long-term partnerships with leading companies serving music makers worldwide
