What she shares on this episode:

There are hundreds of people starting new businesses every day and there are over 400 songs released each day. How will your song be noticed? How will your brand stand out? How can you be seen in a saturated world? How can you get through to your fans? We put our heart and soul into our art because we are passionate about it. Time, money and energy is spent. Sometimes at the cost of our own health and wellbeing. We spend hours on end in the studio perfecting that song and it is s important that it represents who we are and the way that we want people to perceive us. When all this is done we finally put our song out there and hope someone will take notice of it. This where building a community around your art becomes an essential step in the process of your song being noticed. A lot of work needs to go in even before you release your song.
