I know the title of this essay looks a touch bizarre but stick with me and I am going to explain all. In this post you’ll learn the no1 way that you can boost your fan base and build a successful music career…starting at the moment.

Once I stopped listening to Music selling pros who had not done anything in the music game and started to follow and learn ninja skills from folks who were really making millions of dollars online, everything became far easier.

Now all I do is copy what these fellows do in order to make so much money then transfer it to my music.

So here they are the top 2 things musicians can find out about marketing from the Old Skool Internet marketers…

Free Traffic is Best.

For the music marketer you really want to be going after a free traffic model in your business. The cause of this is that most indie music artists are on a restricted budget and if you are spending cash everyday on advertising you may possibly go into Chapter 11.

The best way I know to get free traffic to your site is to post a video to YouTube everyday of your group covering a current chart hit. If you keep at this it’s guaranteed free traffic for life!

If you believe your band is rubbish?

I find that the reason a lot of bands and artists fail to make any progress in their career is that they do not believe in their own music and think that there’s no way on earth that they could ever make it in the music business compared with other artists like lady Gaga and such.

But if you’re rubbish that is’s OK, just admit it becuase i have a secret sauce that you can add to your music which may leave you ten times before most other artist if you just implement it each day.

The technique goes like this….

So the simplest way to become great in music is to spend half an hour each day writing new stuff. I go into the lavatory with my iPhone and get the ideas down on tape without modifying anything out. I just sing and play whatever on earth is in my head and set my iPhone timer to half and hour so that I do not need to keep consistently looking at my watch.

Doing this I have more songs than I know what to do with and after a month I am able to actually notice that the standard of my music is so much better than when I started.

It’s cheesy but I believe every great frontman or guitar player started off being rubbish and because they practiced each day they where in a position to bring the standard of their stuff up to scratch.

Last thoughts.

I could go on all day about these new music promoting methods but I need to finish this articles here. The main thing you must take away from this is that you’ve got to become a student of marketing and work on your promotions each day.
