Blog Challenge #2 - Tell Your Entrepreneurial Story
My foray into the world of online music promotion began as a result of my passion for social media, in 2011 after discovering an musical artist who was the same nationality as me I discovered a passion I never knew I had and this was what eventually led me to launching my blog in 2013 and eventually providing additional promotional services.
Prior to the launch I spent a while building up contacts which I could utilise as elements within the promo packages I offer, for example Internet Radio stations or other music blogs.
I am also motivated by sharing the wonderful music that I discover with like minded individuals who appreciate and cherish good music as much as I do.
My first client was gained as a result of growing interest in my blog, I regularly have artists connect with me via social media and after a complimentary review of their music I felt that was the perfect time to mention the other services that I offer.
The biggest challenges which I still face are finding new artists to promote and ensuring a regular income and from a blogging perspective avoiding reuse of the same vocabulary and or phrases when reviewing music.
hey Boulent,
ReplyDeleteI liked your post. yes sometimes those insights come unexpected.
I heard from a lot of people online who started their passion without making money with that. and later on find out, that they stumbled upon something awsome.
