A friend of mine, Interscope recording artist John Oszajca, has been having a lot of success by taking proven internet marketing techniques and putting a slight spin on them so they are appropriate for musicians and bands.
John's been doing really well with these strategies and has recently written a step by step guide on how to do this yourself so that other musicians can start to see the kind of success that he's been having with this. He recently sent me a copy and I was amazed at how many ideas John has devised for marketing music on the internet that I haven´t thought of myself. I know these techniques work in terms of marketing on the internet, because I´ve used many of them myself, but until reading John´s book I wasn´t sure how to apply these strategies to marketing music.

Now, this guide is not for everyone. If you're already selling thousands of CD's each month then the truth is, you probably don't need this. But if you're like most musicians who are only seeing a few sales come in each month on the internet, I highly recommend you take a look at what John has developed. It's so simple that I had one of those "slap my self in the forehead moments" after I read the guide, Music Marketing Manifesto.
But again, this is especially for people who are interested in using the internet to bring in sales. This does not go into the traditional, "create a press kit, book a tour" kind of stuff that you are used to. I personally think the internet is a much more effective way of reaching new fans, if you know how to find them efficiently, which is what this book clearly explains.
Anyway, just thought I'd pass it on. See what you think. Again You can check it out by going here.
Until Next Time... Happy Songwriting!
