1. Go full-distribution<\/h3>\n

If fans can\u2019t find your music, they can\u2019t buy it, add it to playlists, or share it from their platform of choice.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s 2018 \u2014 you can\u2019t afford NOT to be everywhere your fans are. Make it easy for them!<\/p>\n

Do you have any music that\u2019s not available on popular digital platforms like Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon, Pandora, YouTube, and more? You could easily be missing out on streams and sales.<\/p>\n

2. Email your fans<\/h3>\n

Social media is fine, but it\u2019s no substitute for an email newsletter delivered straight to the inboxes of your most loyal fans.<\/p>\n

Suggest gift ideas, like t-shirts, mugs, or other merch items.<\/p>\n

If you have holiday music, ask them to add it to their seasonal playlists.<\/p>\n

Share a Christmas greeting video; write a 2018 retrospective; or just say thanks!<\/p>\n

Here are some non-traditional venue suggestions you can investigate in your area:<\/p>\n
