There’s gonna be a time in your life where you have nobody around, you’re broke, and life’s just passing you by. Well you’re making music, people are doing other things by getting good jobs and they’re able to pay their bills no problem while you continue to struggle.

Many artists don’t know what to do in that moment. Any artist that became successful didn’t know what to do in that moment. So they kept going even if things go wrong and mistakes are being made. Just like before I started my record label and I owned a sales marketing and advertising company, there were times where I lost contracts and had to pay my employees, and I couldn’t eat or pay my own bills because I used my personal money to cover payroll. And what was worse was that I couldn’t go and get credit, I couldn’t get a loan, I couldn’t do anything, I couldn’t get help, but I had to keep going.

But here’s the thing. We all go through phases, development, and learning, and we must understand that what we’re doing is important. We have to realize why we’re doing this to begin with.

If you haven’t gone through anything like this, then it’s because you haven’t been in the music industry long enough yet.

But if you have gone through this phase or you’re going through it right now, just know that something big is about to happen for you sooner than you realize. You just have to stay consistent, you can’t give up, you can’t walk away. You have to stay strong. You have to keep the faith and have a little grace for yourself even if you’re making mistakes.

Everyone goes through tough times when they’re in the music industry. It’s just a phase, and once you get through it and you come out at the end of the tunnel, you’ll see the light.

So even when nothing’s working and you wanna get a regular job and you wanna give up your dreams of performing music for a living, you may think you’re wasting your time and throwing your life away. At the end of the day it’s just a test. You have to think through it and don’t let intrusive thoughts and tough times steal your dreams.

Think through it and figure out what works for you and what didn’t work for you. And whatever did work, do more of that because if you focus on the things that are working then eventually all your dreams will come true. So just keep going, you’re gonna make it. This music journey is not a straight line. You’re gonna have curves, you’re gonna have bumps in the road, and you just have to navigate through it. I know you can do it. I have faith in you, now you need to have faith in yourself.

If you ever need help with anything, hit me up and I’ll do whatever I can to help you. Give me a follow and hopefully my posts can help you navigate the music industry.

One day, you will be famous. Good luck on your music journey.

This is one of the most advanced music marketing strategies.

Step 1: Create Your Smart Link

Go to your Spotify profile and copy your profile URL.

Go to any landing page platform and create a smart link.

Copy and paste the URL and click next.

You will see a landing page for your Spotify account.

You can edit it however you want by selecting a genre.

You do not have to do the annual pro, so you can just say no thanks.

Enter the title and click next.

You can design it, but something that I always say is simplicity is probably the best thing. Sometimes less is more.

Click next.

Step 2: Add Your Track

Now you want to add your track.

Click next.

Customize your URL if you want.

Keep clicking next until you see the audio preview.

Select no source and click next.

Step 3: Add Your Pixel

Go to Facebook Pixel ID and put your pixel from Meta Ads Manager.

Next, decide if you want to put this landing page in your bio on all socials. This way everyone who goes to your page can click your link, go directly to the landing page, and get to all your music.

Step 4: What the Landing Page Includes

It is going to have links to all your music, merchandise, email sign up, tickets, and so much more including your social medias.

The pixel will track all the data for everyone who clicks the landing page link that is in your bio.

Step 5: Why This Works

Every time you post something and they check out your profile, they will see the link in your bio and you will collect a lot of data in the Meta Ads Manager.

You can go to the Meta Ads Manager and create a custom and lookalike audience from the fans who are interacting with the landing page link in your social media bio. This works for all social medias.

Make sure you are consistently posting content and directing people to your socials so you can collect all their data.

With this data you will be able to retarget your traffic and create lookalike audiences similar to the traffic on your page and target them with your ads.

Final Notes

Make sure that you use this strategy because it is one of the most advanced marketing strategies right now being used by many successful artists.

Post content and have a link in your bio that has a Meta pixel so you can track every click and collect data.

You will be able to figure out who your fans are and who your audience is.

This will help you run better ads and target the right audience, especially if you are a unique artist with your own lane.

We all have competitors when you’re a musician. Your competitors are the other musicians that have a similar style and sound as you.

Here’s 2 ways to target your competitor’s customers by using Google Ads:

Log into Google Ads

Go to tools.
Go to keyword planner.
Select Discover new keywords.
Go to Start with a website.
Type in your competitor’s website.

Once you type in the website, it gives you two options. You can use the entire website or you can select “only use this page.”

Use their login page so it targets all of their paying customers.

Click Get Results.

You’ll see all the keywords associated with their website and paying customers. It also shows you how powerful each keyword is based on the time and date.

So if there’s specific people that you want to target based off a competitor’s customers, you can use their website and take all their keywords and use them when you run your ads.

The second way to siphon customers from competitors is to use the audience manager and capture their search traffic.

Click Audience Manager.
Go to Custom Segments.
Create a new custom segment.
Go to where it says “People who browse types of websites.”
Put in your competitor’s website just like the first thing I showed you.

You’ll be able to see everyone that used that website using that custom segment.

Name the segment, and when you run your ads use that segment and it will target anyone that visited your competitor’s website.
