Partner with brands you believe in
Brands hoping to reach your fans or audience also serve as a good resource for independent artists in search of funding to reach into.
Work with clubs & Lounges
Clubs and lounges often network with artists for regular live performances and events, especially when they are hoping to reach a new crowd, reach out to clubs and lounges to get notified when they have need for a live performance you can cover.
Remix Hot & Trending Music
Remixing trending music with their instrumentals is a great way to earn new income for a fraction of the cost. Some Trending music allows independent artists to reuse the instrumentals and independent artists can piggyback on the promotion to reach a new audience, show case their skills and earn additional income.
Upload your work to all possible channels
All channels or platforms present a potential new opportunity to gain new fans, earn new income and get more exposure.
