After I stopped listening to Music promoting pros who had not done anything in the music game and started to follow and learn ninja talents from people who were actually making millions of greenbacks online, everything became much easier.

Now all I am doing is copy what these fellows do in order to make so much cash then transfer it to my music.
So here they are , the top 2 things musicians can learn about promoting from the Old Skool Internet marketers…
Free Traffic is Best.
For the music marketer you truly 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 humble budget and if you’re spending money everyday on advertising you may possibly go into Chapter 11.
the easiest way I know to get free traffic to your internet site is to post a video to YouTube everyday of your group covering a current chart hit. If you keep at this it’s assured 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 they don’t trust in their own music and think that there’s no way on earth that they could ever make it in the business compared to other artists like lady Gaga and such.
But if you’re rubbish that’s's OK, just confess becuase i have a secret sauce you can add to your music which should leave you 10 times ahead of most other artist if you just implement it each day.
The method goes like this….
So the easiest way to become great in music is to spend 30 minutes every day writing new stuff. I’m going into the lavatory with my iPhone and get the ideas down on tape without editing anything out. I just sing and play whatever on earth is in my head and set my iPhone timer to half and hour so I do not need to keep continually having a look at my watch.
Doing this I have more songs than I know what to do with and after a month I am able to really notice that the quality of my music is so much better than when I started.
It’s cheesy but I believe each great frontman or guitar player started out being rubbish and because they practiced every day they where able to bring the standard of their stuff up to the required standard.
Final thoughts.
I could go on all day about these new music promoting strategies but I should finish this articles here. The most important thing you need to take away from this is that you have got to become a student of promoting and work on your promotions every day.
