One Thing Day 439 Singer : Band Marketing

Day 439: Singer / Band Marketing Yesterday I was explaining how there is no such thing as a funnel... it's really a series of cliffs. Speaking of falling off cliffs… When this virus is over, I still want some of you to stay away from me. And, Vanilla Ice… Remember when you told America if there was a problem, you’d solve it? Time to make good. In other news…. Not all storms come to disrupt your life… some come to clear the path. Anyhoo… ‘How to Market a Band’ If you’ve ever watched American Idol or The Voice you’ve probably thought to yourself… ‘He/she is going to be famous… what a voice!’ After the show… Never to hear from them again, despite them playing at clubs and private events for years. They don’t crack it. Maybe this is a family member. Why don’t they crack it… or how do you help an artist crack it? I get asked either of those with ridiculous consistency. Artists are renowned for making very little money or getting taken advantage of. Being a successful artist is about: Talent Marketing No doubt you could work out the ‘talent’ piece… Marketing… well here are some of the mistakes they consistently make: Content content content… They need to put out songs and those songs need to be played online every day (Tik Tok, IG, FB etc…). *If they’re not willing to do a social media post every day singing… they’re not a real artist and they do not have a deep desire to make people feel good through song. Every song needs a video… songs with a video get 50 times the playtime on social media. Every video needs someone that can act and that’s likely not the band members. The band plays, the singer sings, and the actors act.  An ad in the local newspaper and a post on social media will get more than enough takers if they’re any good. Professional / hi-quality pics… a picture is worth a thousand words. They need professional pics and every band has a dad, mom, brother, sister, cousin etc… and if they’re Orphans the local university has a class of students looking for camera practice/experience. Identity… think of your favorite bands and they have a VERY CLEAR identity. Note: it wasn’t formed on day 1… it’s morphed and that’s OK but it must be formed. Metallica, Elvis, Beatles, Springsteen, Garth Brooks, Michael Jackson, Queen, ACDC, Taylor Swift, GnR etc… all had insanely clear identities. That identity needs to be DIFFERENT. The lead singer needs to represent that band's IDENTITY to a T. Their clothing… To be cool you need to look cool and therefore their attire MATTERS. The clothes need to be cool and it also need to fit properly and represent the IDENTITY of the band. You’d be amazed at the super cool and trendy clothes you can find in thrift stores and online in places like eBay. Reinforce the need for consistent DAILY content on social media. You may have heard of a kid named Justin Bieber… he was discovered online. He knew two things mattered: Talent Marketing Now, pick up the phone and go help someone.
