Create content everyday. If they can sing, sing GHOATS. Give away demos, t-shirts etc. Sell demos and t-shirts. Youtube and tiktok if they dance and sing without running out of breathe. Most singers last less than 15 minutes. thats it. Seriously. Play guitar or piano, you must understand music theory.

Thanks Jeromy, @molina8626 it's very similar to normal marketing funnels but doing a lot of engagement and video view campaigns to build familiarity. Make them give you good diverse content and work at getting a low cost per engagement/view on it all. Then when you have something important to announce you'll have a good warm audience.

The biggest thing I'd do is stay away from any major artist as they are all focused on short burst of exposure. I've worked with some of biggest names in electronic music and use to run a massive blog in dubstep genre. Majority of labels, agents, and managers don't know marketing they rely on their network based on artist who are already successful. Secret sauce is always have all platforms and outlets push to the things you control, website. If you focus too much on one platform like Instagram, Tiktok, SoundCloud, etc. you can't get them back. Always point to the website where you make that the platform you market off of. Why use things like Bandcamp or anything else when you can have your own ecommerce shop setup to sell your own stuff. It's hilarious how far behind the music industry is in modern digital marketing. It's all vanity stuff and artist just fall off until next release if lucky.

And to be clear you run short clips or previews across platforms and then push them back to website with UTMs to measure how much each platform produces. If you can't link you have artist add at end of previews "hear the rest at blah blah dot com"

Also be weary of people who are out there saying they know what they are doing in this space, especially in this group. Click their profile name and see all the previous post or comments they've made. Lots of "experts" on here lol
