Working With an Indie Radio Promoter: When to Do it

[MyBrandon111]

well radio is important and it shouldnt be the last it should be 2nd once u have a fan base on youtube and a marketing campagin you can get a hollywood director 10k to do a video full editing and promotion team to get on mtv vh1 bet etc so once u give a good promoter 5-8k they should get about 6-7 stations to play it and then it will increase promoter should weave out bad music and promote good because its a digital market now and with a great promoter u can sell 100k+records its the promoter

I just don't agree with your concept. Its all about the masses and its all about how much money you have to invest in your product.

[CatEyezStudio]

i take it back u r a moron u shouldn't have no business in the radio business and honestly you should put a sock in your mouth

[CatEyezStudio]

..... i'll tell u why u got bad dictatorship n bad politics ..its about good music n great songs thats the next thing that should change in the music industry how music is being dictated on radio...2 many morons in the music business n that needs 2 be change big time

[CatEyezStudio]

...we need a real radio station that plays a song on radio cause its good not cause some moron thinks it has 2 do wit who paying 4 the bus ride or his guitar strings duh... if the song is great then play it...when i hear a song on radio n it sounds good ....that what counts great art needs a fair chance just keep the goofy politics out n lets keep rock n roll simple the way it should be..why not take a great piece of art n proudly display it from the radio ....

[CatEyezStudio]

first of all nobody saying your a moron but the fact is. its about the song n great music...it have nothing 2 do wit fan base or investors or promotion or if u live in a cardboard box ..if the song is great then it should be heard bottom line why discriminate n be so goofy corporate when that cleechayness is what kills the industry

[TomFooleryy88]

you seem to have a "can't do" attitude.

Dude knows his shit. Good advice.

If an artist is author than radio is now income, from publishing rights, that is why you should go to radio's :)

Listen carefully folks, lots of scam artists out there.

[bankedoutt]

@HOPELESSROMANTIKO i agree. most think all i need is to be on the radio when you should first work on making people aware of who you are as an artists.

[cheekbrown]

This was very informative. I agree that the artist must build his/her fan base first by doing gigs regularly and Internet promotion before considering radio promotion.

So get known first before promotion? Whats the promotion for then?
