Music Promotion Myths

1. Marketing Is Horrible

I used to believe that I didn’t need to promote my music when I was younger. I believed it could stand on its own, propelling my career without the need for any promotional effort.

However, just because marketing is a job does not imply it has to be unpleasant. It takes time and effort to make music, but we all like the process, right?

So, rather of seeing music marketing as a duty, think of it as a creative effort, and it won’t be as bad.

2. Everyone is concerned about you

At a concert, the audience is ecstatic.

This may seem harsh, but it is accurate. Even if they notice your marketing efforts, not everyone will enjoy your music.

So you must instantly demonstrate why people should care about you and your music.

That’s why you’ll need to be inventive with your marketing strategies. Make a strong first impression that will pique people’s interest.

3. Someone will find out about me (And Then Do The Marketing For Me)

When I initially began releasing songs, I thought the same thing. I imagined that if managers and record label executives heard my music, they would be eager to collaborate with me.

Then I wouldn’t have to do any more music marketing. They’d take care of it for me.

Despite the fact that an increasing number of DIY musicians are recognizing that a music career is really DIY, there is still a widespread misperception in the music industry.

As an independent musician, how should you approach music promotion?

Paying for social media advertising isn’t necessarily synonymous with marketing. It doesn’t imply you have to behave in a shady manner.

Marketing is similar to deciding what to wear on stage and what to say in between songs. All you have to do now is apply that mindset to your music promotion.

To be honest, music marketing is not easy.

It will take a long time to build if you want your promotion to perform effectively but don’t have a budget.

It will cost you money if you want a well-done marketing done fast.

The reality is that people who have money have an edge over those who have not. As a result, investing part of your music money to marketing is a smart idea.

However, there is some good news…

“Good” no longer entails shooting a high-end music video that costs tens of thousands of dollars. A very innovative TikTok that receives hundreds of thousands of views (shot on your phone!) might be considered “good.”

Promote your music in a manner that draws attention to it.
