Hit Them With Your Best Shot....


I’ve probably mentioned this once or twice but and there’s a good chance you’ve figured out for yourself anyway but just to be clear, there is no one piece of advice offered on this blog that is likely to be at all helpful if you do it in a vacuum. Different ideas/strategies are meant to achieve different goals, and so on. Let’s say (mostly because it’s true) that the number one goal you should work towards is exposure. Everything you will (or won’t) get out of your music career will depend on your ability to get exposure. For example, if you’re applying for a job (full time musician), first you write a resume (album) but you’re not done yet! Then you have to give it to someone who will read it. There are a lot to get different kinds and different levels of exposure but the two best are probably having a demo and giving people stuff. The demo should be as polished as your accounting strategy of not buying cereal for a month will allow. Things you give away could be something like a sticker that will hopefully be placed somewhere visible, or the cheaper option of a download card with the condition of a ‘Facebook Like’.
