This is 100% true, my homie Ethan Gander went viral on a tiktok that has over a million views and literally EVERYONE in the music industry wants him to come to their label. Because they see the song has so much potential and a well established artist, they want him on their side. He's taught me so much and everything in this video is well put together!
I’ve been trying to build a team as a blind artist super frustrated because I’m barred from doing certain things just because of my physical limitations
@@TheMumadoesa unfortunately not. I have a cameraman and a web designer but no one to handle social media/overall management duties. I do a lot of that myself but like I said it’s hard to do blind.
Artists must understand someone must invest money and time in a new. How do you get return on your investment in a new artist? As a manager there must be a vision and strategy for the artist to win and generate a buzz and eventually sales. That said artists must be packaged and developed which takes time and money. Artists need to work together with other artists to create a and creative vibe. It's better to have a small show that successful than a large show that gets shut down. Had show equals bad investment.
I don't get why dope producers love to team up with the wackest artists and making them shine... Maybe they love to turn shit into gold and the challenge ain't that big with better artists.
If you go viral in a good way its a foot into the door and can be done with good music and content costing less then 5k. Becoming a sound on tiktok or something with a catchy line or something stupid is also a way to get known (one you have to have a lot of luck with) but in a time where streaming doesnt pay the bills anymore its far from a sure way to fill venues.
Hey Brandman. Thank you so much for what you do. I’ve watched a lot of your videos and plan to watch a lot more. Do you know who I should look for if I want to write music to pitch to other artists?
I thk you need a marketing coach, strategist, consultant, whatever you want to call it. If the music slaps, you can get away with making your own graphics on Canva, getting a friend to film you on an iPhone 13 pro. Someone on marketing can show you how to tAke what you create and how to make it go far for less. But if you create everything and don’t know what to do with it - that’s a bust. That’s what I thk.
@@impacLopez google marketing events. A lot a college have a network of these but you can find them yourself by joining a music or marketing organization.
Love this question. Most people don’t have the capacity to create a song a week. Or have stored up content that they haven’t dropped yet. The method will be hard to sustain. For independents, y’all are doing everything. Marketing, social media, creating, etc. and if you are doing that + releasing & PROPERLY promoting, you will burn out fast. But if you do create as fast as a single a week, you will get seasoned as hell and will see some growth in your craft. I don’t think there is a right answer for independents. I would start with what does your capacity look like and start from there - and be realistic. That way you can set yourself up for success.
Hey brand what up I'm blits fever I caught some of you podcast . What advice do you have for a artist that has over 800000 ig followers and 100000000 views in 4 years independently over 1 million Spotify streams of within a few weeks
A management company or a marketing company. Google them. Most labels have their own marketing team. Another way is to google the artist album credits if you’re looking for a specific team. Wikipedia list marketing, creative direction team under the album credits. Also, join a marketing or some type of professional organization. They will have networks to link to the appropriate people.

love ethan!
A job with a creative strategy is daily push ups. Thanks for keeping it real but also guiding a TH-cam Learner.

@joxeph XO Can you find a support worker who can take care of day to day tasks to assist?
@@momalamin5732 thank you i’ve been dropping Freestyles these past couple months and gearing up for an original release

" you can't get it all on TH-cam " i love that honest advice.
My Bank is selling my CDs on the streets. I make about 100 a day. I keep my bills abd expenses low so I can invest most of my money into the music.
Props, fuck a job bro
That only works in Nyc not the rest of the world
I've recently thought of my job as a partnership lol pay a 100 to myself first, every pay, check and invest in assets that build
This is it bro. Pay your own way like Dame say or grind for attention until a label picks you up and pimps you 😂
@@preciousmettlex lol that's how it's looking

Love you big bro! Thank you 4 game

i think the hardest thing is finding a producer
I don't get why dope producers love to team up with the wackest artists and making them shine...
Maybe they love to turn shit into gold and the challenge ain't that big with better artists.
Oh Yea, I should have watched it to the End, Thanks BrandManSean
Really excellent video and advice appreciate you😁
Good advice but it’s not easy and it is incredibly tough to go through it.
This breakdown is super helpful man, thank you 🙏
You speaking facts!

God bless u brother... I owe u because of my comment on ur last video
forgive me bro
I needed this 2 years ago lol
youre awesome thanks for the jewels!
this is good stuff bro. can't. do. it. alone.
Very good advice thanks!
Do you agree that it still takes 150k to 200k to break? Finding an investor route doesn’t work anymore now?
I think 5K and some smart moves can break you. Working with the right influencers and artists
@@Its_MLLOS that would make sense to me…. I feel that this large amount was maybe 10 or 14 years ago
@@Its_MLLOS 5k is no where near the amount needed to break an artist

Damn you just did me a solid
Title says 7 people, but it was only 6
solid
I miss the booking part of the manager, the publicist and the producer
helpful
wow!
A little off topic. But what are your thoughts on a song a week? Aka the “russ method”
like his tiktok method? lol for example that song he made with a fan?
@@prodbydramatic no, like dropping a song every Friday

@@zekayjay14 nice answer i agree 100% the social media is the hardest for me.

💯💯🔥
booking I supposed falls under management than?
Booking is a different type of management though. At a high level, your general manager won't be your booking manager.
Cute ☺️ and business savvy
🖖🏾👽
What is exactly level 3 and 4? In terms of monthly streams or followers on IG & YT?
How or where can one find a manager/marketing advisor ?
A management company or a marketing company. Google them. Most labels have their own marketing team. Another way is to google the artist album credits if you’re looking for a specific team. Wikipedia list marketing, creative direction team under the album credits. Also, join a marketing or some type of professional organization. They will have networks to link to the appropriate people.
@@AppleBloom21 i really appreciate your feed back 💯💯
@@impacLopez no problem anytime and good luck to you.
@@impacLopez one that Beyoncé: Chloe x Halle use is Joey Harris inc. and found out about him from Beyoncé album credits.
@@AppleBloom21 so I researched a few in my area. So many to choose from. But they are annually. Obviusly a payment to attend, no issue. So then it's as simple as turning up and socializing with others right?
