If you were packing your car for a cross country trip that you felt you had to make.. whether it was a dream Melker Karlsson Jersey , a desire or a need, here is a you bought a car, bought the supplies for the trip and then started out of say Boston and then you got as far as New York. Would you take the money you had saved for gas, hotels, food and the remainder of the trip and spend it on another car or if you were running out of money, instead of saving up for those gas, hotel Kevin Labanc Jersey , food and toll costs, would you put it toward a new car?


Not really the most intelligent decision if you answered yes.


It is basically the same exact thing when some one records an album that they want to go the distance with or make a career off of and then decide to jump right back in the studio instead of properly promoting, marketing and advertising it.


Now before you jump on my case, this does not apply to the musicians that just want to record for fun, that do it as a a part time thing or just want to do more recording than traveling, performing or doing it full time.


But for those that are trying to go for a full time, long term and sustainable career Justin Braun Jersey , by not promoting, marketing and advertising the album is just going to set you back to the place where you were with the last album.


Yes, some also say they are that much further along. Some will say they learned a lot about the studio, about song writing and have some fair points, but in the end, you need to build a strong foundation with some kind of release so that other releases can follow suit much easier and go as far and further.


These days it will take more than what you spent to record your album to properly promote it and get it out there. It will take more time and it will take much more effort. It is an effort and amount of time you have to commit to and this is regardless of whether you are signed to a label, with a manager Tomas Hertl Jersey , an agent or even a publicist.


You need to have your information organized about the album, the release, the band and all the aspects that make you stand out, including your logo, initial reviews and some strong content that can continue to be updated on a daily basis.


You need to find every place where you can get that music and the information about yourself or your band. Sending out emails every day to magazines, websites, newspapers Martin Jones Jersey , radio stations, tv stations talking about your release and the marketing behind it. Going after reviews, listings and not to mention advertising on different sites in different cities everyday.


You need to get out there and play, work on building your fan base while making sure to maintain your current fan base. This is something that is so heavily overlooked. You need to keep the interest of your older fans and it doesn’t always take new music. You can keep them drawn in with other media, photos, videos, contests and other merchandise.


You should be submitting letters to booking agents Joonas Donskoi Jersey , different venues, festivals, and connecting with other bands you could open for to support that release.


All and all, that is just the beginning. A release takes much more money, time, energy and effort than many seem to think. It is the commitment to continuing to push the product to blaze the trail for future products. Still it is time and money that is worth it, if it is really the dream you want.
