Path To Stardom

Your actions and choices build your future. Are you actually doing music as a career or are you doing it as a hobby? Observe your actions and act accordingly. 

As a music artist, one of the best ways to get people to discover your music is by running ads.  Instead of running ads and getting a limited result, run ads to your target market and have a funnel that is able to collect their information so in the future, you can re-target those same people for free. 

Placements are a great way for new people to hear and discover your music and you as a music artist.  They are another way in which your music can get heard without the need of direct marketing on your end. 

As artists we may try and do everything ourselves and it can be a lot of pressure? Why put pressure on ourselves to do everything when a template has already been laid out for us, by people who have com before us?

What do you like to rap or sing about? Does your music match that? If not, think about how you can either change your music to match what you rap about, or change what you rap about to match your image. 

By creating a sales funnel, you lead your fans and customers through an experience that leads them to buy your stuff while collecting their information.  Eventually as your build your email list through your funnel, it's a free and easy way to contact your fans for free and update them on your new music and new products you have for them. 

We live in a world where thousands of pieces of content are literally posted every second.  If you post less than daily, your stuff can just get lost in the mix of everything else that people see or scroll by.  By posting daily on your selected platform it is a free and easy way to increase your reach and stay in the minds of your fans. 

Are you comparing yourself to up & coming artists and wondering why you don't also have the streams that they do? The industry is all smoke & mirrors and money talks.  Many up & coming artists are backed by big labels who have the money to fund their careers and make them look like they're doing better than they actually are. 

As an independent music artist without a big budget, what other things are you good at besides music?  Are you also good at fashion & styling? Are you also good at creating digital artwork? Whatever you're good at, show that to the world.  People will connect to different things that you do, and you will be able to offer value in other ways on top of your music.
