Wednesday, August 12th, 2009 - Work on Marketing my Music Day

Good Morning! Today is Wednesday, and for me that means a day of working on Music Marketing. I purchased a book from Bob Baker at www.bob-baker.com called Guerilla Music Marketing. This book is a crash course in marketing your music. It gave me the motivation to get this blog going! So today I will study the book.....I thought when I got out of school I was through studying! I will study the book, and find ways to apply the principles he lays out in the book!! When I started playing music, I didnt realize there were so many things to do besides playing music. It seems playing music is only about 5% of what I do!! It's crazy!!

As promised I wanted to give ya'll a new artist of the week to check out!! This week I want to feature a great songwriter from Paron, Arkansas! Her name is Malindia Shoptaw. Check her out at http://www.reverbnation.com/malindiashoptawsongwriter . I sing "I'd die Trying" on her page! More about her in the next few days!!

Thanks for checking out the blog today. Hope ya'll have a great day!!
God Bless,
Ben

  1. Ben, Good luck with Virgin! I can't wait to hear how it went. With your style and music writing you'll knock um off their feet!

    A few things have stalled the Grand Opening of the Arkansas Welcome in Lk Village, now it is looking like Sept. or even Oct. The dock removal and new construction is the hold up at this time.

    I am saying a Big Major Prayer that the Virgin deal comes through for you.

    Many Prayers!
    Martin
