About

 

 

 

Every band or artist possesses the building blocks to success. But as every successful artist has proven, at the end of the day, it’s your band, your music, and your responsibility to do the work required to succeed.

For years, marketing has been hypocritical. We've been taught to market to others in ways we hate being marketed to (facebook events, mass e-mailing, posters, flyers, ads, etc.). So why do we still keep trying the same stale marketing moves? This workshop will show you how to unlearn the old ways and consistently attract and engage your fans. You'll stop just pushing out your message and praying that it sticks somewhere. Potential and current fans want to be listened to, validated, and have a platform to be heard-especially online. With this workshop, you'll learn to create such a relationship and make fans for life.
