Original article by Christopher Knab  Visit us at www.entirelypr.com entire.lypr@gmail.com Play Live Often and Don’t Worry About Getting Paid For Every Gig. You can always tell the difference between a musician who is in it for the money, and a musician who is in it for the music. The dedicated musician can’t NOT play music every chance they get.  Money-focused musicians whine about the fact that they can't get club gigs that pay anything. Well, If you think that you can make your living solely as a musician in the first three to four years of your career, you're headed for a breakdown and disappointment.  Think about it... almost every legendary, gifted musician who has made a mark on our culture has been a musician who struggled long and hard at their craft, and never gave up. Playing live as often as possible was as natural to them as breathing in and out.  So, eat determination for breakfast! Go out there and play on the streets if you have to, play at school

CALL TO ACTION So what do you do when you can’t seem to get the results you want for products you’ve spent a lot of time and money developing and promoting. Upon many tools and strategies you may already have in use, you want to employ (CTA) Call To Action Techniques. Now we all know what (CTA) is we just may not be aware of how much it influences our decisions. In the digital age, applying  (CTA) techniques to your social media marketing is vital. Without creating and implementing call to action techniques, what you have is possibly a tribe audience over just unknown and uninvolved fans, (which a tribe audience is always better) but if you’re not using CTA techniques then most likely your product and message is not being followed through. Without using CTA, what you have is an audience that doesn’t know what to do with the message or product being sold to them. Below is a step by step guide on how to prepare and how to implement (CTA) Call To Action Techniques into your socia

“The problem with social media and social marketing is this, brands treat social media like it is the great unknown lol.”   In my profession as a publicist, I have watched social media go from the Myspace days to its current glorious and almost monstrous state. What held true back in the Myspace days still holds true today. Social media is a very powerful tool that when used and worked correctly can work wonders for bands and brands in general. The problem is that most people and organizations for the matter, don’t know how to correctly work their social media. When artists or organizations seeking a publicist’s representation send me their press kits or information, one of the first things I do is look at their social media. Now since we live in a time where you can buy views,likes and plays, I also take a look at their followers and comments left by individuals and fans. This lets me know how organic their social media accounts are and from the comments and followers I can see h

One of the curious developments of the late 70’s was the huge increase in garage bands, punk bands, and ‘do-it yourselfers’, who just picked up an instrument, or started to sing with some friends, and 6 months later recorded a record and began to play live. Some great music, and new directions in music, came out of that situation. But now, 30 odd years later, the novelty of hearing amateurish thrashings has gotten a bit dull.  Referenced from  http://www.musicbizacademy.com/ Original Author Christopher Knab Visit us at www.entirelypr.com Prior to the late 70’s, more often than not, the music that is our heritage was made by musicians who, from the time they took up their instrument, worshiped at the feet of some master rock n’ roller, blues man, jazz player, folk legend, songwriter, or whatever. The habit of these inspired musicians was an appetite for perfection. A need to be not just good enough but GREAT. Why settle for less? Whatever developing stage you are at, go beyond

Referenced  from  http://www.musicbizacademy.com/    Original Author Christopher Knab Visit us at www.entirelypr.com Ignorant, mis-informed musicians are a menace to themselves.  Enough already!  Over the decades there have been countless stories of musicians who were ripped off by their record labels and music publishing companies. Why? Exploitation was the name of the game. Keeping musicians in the dark was standard business practice. However, the past has passed, and today, any musician who signs a record contract, and learns later what he or she signed, has only themselves to blame.  The amount of free information on the web is astounding these days. Type any topic about the business of music into Google and you will be drowning in resources.  In addition, there are many schools that now offer 2-4 year programs on the business of music. Also, there are many seminars and workshops available on a year round basis in most major American cities.  Consultants, Attorneys, a
