Some of the feedback we’ve received this week from artists who have signed up for the Keep It Indie Membership!
If you’re still on the fence, join us for a QA in Instagram stories TOMORROW where I’ll be answering all your questions about the membership before prices go up!
In our newsletter today we are talking about clarity…
Clarity is the ability to see things clearly.
It’s also the ability to understand how to take the next step in front of you.
Many people will look at the Keep It Indie Membership and write it off because of the price.
They decide that $30-$60/month is simply too expensive.
To that I say, isn’t uncertainty more expensive?
If you could skip years of frustration from not knowing the strategies that will help you grow your brand and fanbase… wouldn’t you?
If you could save all of the money it would take to hire a team to execute these exact same strategies by learning how to do it yourself…. wouldn’t you?
Our membership is designed to help you get the clarity you’ve been looking for:
- Identify areas of your brand to focus on for growth
- Learn strategies and tangible tactics to increase your fanbase
- Develop your fan funnel so you can actually monetize your fanbase
- Strategically plan your releases so they don’t go unheard
- Connect and network with other artists and industry professionals
- Gain valuable feedback from someone in the industry who can point you in the right direction for where you are in your artist journey
In my opinion, if you’re an artist who is just starting out or who is ready to up-level you skills and visibility in the industry…. it’s kind of a no-brainer. It’s LESS than a cup of coffee a day and will give you the clarity you need to move forward in this industry.
Comment “clarity” and I’ll send you the link 👊
The biggest complaint I hear from artists is “I feel like I’m in this alone”.
I also hear things like:
“I don’t even know where to start”
“I don’t know how to get people to listen to my music.”
“I want to make this a career but I’ve been doing this for (x) years and still don’t make a consistent income on music alone.”
Look, I get it, the music industry is HARD. It feels like you have to juggle a thousand things to stay on top of your game and, inevitably, something will fall through the cracks. On top of that, while trying to run a business as an artist you find yourself losing time to do the thing you love most… make music.
That’s not how it should be.
Our Keep It Indie Membership is created with YOU in mind. We wanted to create a platform and community that would empower independent artists to build their career on their own terms. To be educated about the industry. To understand how to effectively strategize their content, releases, platforms, and more. To be able to navigate the murky waters of the industry and come out floating on top.
WITHOUT a label. Staying 100% in control of everything related to your music and brand.
The Keep It Indie Membership isn’t new - it’s been around a few months - but we’ve listened to the feedback from our members and have created a better-than-ever version…. And you can get it for as little as $1/day if you jump in now.
With all that we have added (and have plans to add later this year), we can promise it will NEVER be this price again. Oh, and access is limited.
Comment “membership” below and I’ll send you the details of what’s new in a private message.
I promise, you don’t want to wait on this.
Currently there are two options in the industry:
Sign with a label and give up some creative freedoms and rights to your music, but be ensured that you will have support for your career growth as an artist
Do it on your own - maintain 100% control, but feel like you are floundering everyday because it’s too much to tackle by yourself
We are here to provide option 3: Join a supportive community of artists and industry professionals who mentor independent artists on their career path, provide valuable industry education, and make sure you are creating a career on your OWN terms.
We’re giving you a sneak peek into our community with a FREE industry chat/workshop all about “Music & Money” happening TOMORROW at 12 PM MST.
This never happens. These industry chats are always kept EXCLUSIVE for our community, but we wanted to give you a chance to see what all the fuss is about.
P.S. - We’ve got a secret up our sleeves that we’re sharing with our everyone who attends tomorrow. It’s going to be a game-changer for so many artists who are serious about amplifying their careers this year. Join us live for the inside scoop ;)
Music and Money has a reputation for being a taboo topic, but let’s face it: if you want to make a living from your music then you have to talk to someone who knows how to make that happen.
There are lots of avenues to create revenue streams with your music - sync, streaming, merch sales, show tickets, patreon, fan communities, yada yada yada. You’ve heard it all before… the question is, “How do I make that work for MY music?”
That’s where we step in.
We’ve invited Dave Tamkin and Chris Webb from the Musician’s Tip Jar to host an exclusive workshop for our community! Our live industry chat on “Music & Money” is happening Wednesday at 12 PM MST, and is available to EVERYONE - whether you are a current member or not.
In this workshop we will focus in on finance tips and budgeting for 2024 as an independent artist, and attendees will have the opportunity to ask their own questions to our panel. This is your chance for hands-on, interactive, 1-1 feedback from industry professionals on how to make your music work for you.
And it’s 100% FREE.
I’m also sending out my top 5 podcast listens for jumpstarting your financial success to our newsletter subscribers. If you want in, comment below with the word “Money” and I’ll send you a DM with all the deets.
Hope to see you there!
Hey artists 👋
We’re working on a super top-secret project 🤫
We’re looking for a certain type of person to be involved. And you might be the right fit….
PROJECT MISSION:
• I want to help independent artists go from not knowing how to position their brand in the to strategically growing their brand and fanbase every single month, whether they have a release rollout or not.
• I want to provide actionable insight, strategy, and education for way less than what it would cost to hire my team.
• I want to see independent artists understanding the backend of their business, making passive revenue from their music, and growing their fanbases on autopilot.
HERE’S THE CRITERIA TO BE A PART OF THIS PROJECT:
• You are an independent artist.
• You are kind and coachable.
• You would love to learn how to navigate the industry on your own.
• You understand the power of strategic promotion through elements like fan funnels, digit evergreen lead generation, and more.
• You want to stop doing everything on your own... or wondering what it is you are suppose don't know how to.
If that sounds like you, comment “That’s Me” and I’ll send you a private message with more info!
