Sure you got the talent and local buzz surrounding your music; however, what about connections? When I say connection I'm not referring to you buddies studio down the street, I'm talking about real mainstream connections such as record labels, A&R's, club promoters, street teams, radio stations, webpage's etc. These connections will be the backbone of what makes and breaks your career in the music industry, not your talent!
Playing Your Position
In order to make it in the industry you must remember the golden rule, “play your position” at all times! If you're coming into the music game as an artist, stick to be just an artist for now. Focusing on too many titles at once may cause you to get sidetracked from your number one goal. You can't start off being the artist, the promoter, the street team and web page designer all in one. That is exactly what you will need connections for. Think of it like this, the more connections you have relating to other things besides writing songs, the more time you have to focus on being you, an artist! If you have the dream of promoting yourself as well as being an artist, do it in strides, focus on what's most important to you first, then branch out. You'll see the difference!
Take a Chance
It's time to get real; “scared business” will get you absolutely nothing in the music industry. The term “scared business” describes those hesitant or scared to take a chance. Roll the dice, take a chance and call up radio stations, club promoters and even record labels in regards to your musical talent. The worst anyone can say is “no“, however; anything that isn't a straight out “no”, is a step in the positive direction. You could get told “no” over and over after calling the same radio station or club promoter, however; you will make a name for yourself as being persistent. Your name will stay in the minds of radio DJ's and the club promoters no matter what. In this industry, it's rarely about “what you know” as oppose to “who you know“. Try to make it habit being places where music is highly talked about and loved. This can mean concerts from mainstream artists, music fundraisers or even local music projects at schools or parks. Don't limit yourself to who you tell about your music, for all you know, an average “nobody” could turn out to be a big time “someone” and you wouldn't have known if you didn't take a chance.
