Online Music Marketing Masterclass with Corrie Campbell and Hannah Innes
25th September 2023
This music marketing masterclass will be a one-stop shop for learning and honing the fundamental skills you need to market your new music.
These days, making music just isn’t enough. A recent estimate suggested 50% of a musician’s time should be spent on marketing, whether that’s on newsletters, branding, TikTok, YouTube, podcasts or media interviews. This will ensure your music reaches new audiences and has the potential to open up new opportunities, be that for collaboration or to showcase your talent.
From what you’ll need for the perfect Electronic Press Kit (EPK) and must-have details for your website, to how to sell yourself on social media and engage with the media, this two-hour session will give artists the chance to learn the essentials of music marketing. The session will involve a presentation, alongside the opportunity to take part in some interactive activities that put the skills participants have learned to the test. We’ll have a group discussion / Q&A touching on individuals’ experiences of music promotion and answering any lingering questions.
