music marketing options for indie bands
With the music industry becoming more saturated all the time, and with less money to be made from album sales, indie bands dont know where to start when it comes to music marketing. Most artists record an album, upload it to Bandcamp, Soundcloud or Reverbnation, post the link on their social media profiles, and then become disappointed when nothing happens. Just like opening a business, you need to advertise and promote yourself in order for people to show up.
Where most artists go wrong is deciding to be their own advertiser, meaning they talk about themselves. They enter contests and harass their fans over and over to vote for them. They post song links for their Facebook followers asking for likes, but it only serves to turn people off. The reason for this is that its most effective to have other people talk about your music, especially people in positions of authority, such as music and mp3 bloggers, writers for magazines, podcasters and internet radio hosts.
This is where Independent Music Promotions comes in. Indie bands and artists can submit their music for promotion and publicity consideration at www.independentmusicpromotions.com. Accepted artists will be promoted to a researched list of music press in their niche with guaranteed press and reviews. Whether its promotion for a music video or an upcoming album, Independent Music Promotions CEO James Moore, author of Your Band Is A Virus ( www.yourbandisavirus.com ) personally handles all the campaigns while using his years of music marketing expertise to promote his artist roster.
There are so many options available to indie bands today that theres no need to be stuck in one spot. From Wildfire to Kickstarter to Fiverr to the countless blogs friendly towards indie music, its only the bands that do nothing to promote themselves who get left behind says Moore.
