Episode Notes

"If only we had a label, we'd be able to do X, Y, and Z."

With so many artists out there wanting to "make it", people are bombarded with a slew of unsolicited page invites, random friend requests/follows, and more. Artists are becoming lazy and are using terrible tactics to market themselves, yet not investing time into learning how to properly brand themselves, practice good business etiquette, marketing, etc.

But how do you learn all of these things? Does it happen over time? Are signed bands really overnight successes? In this episode, we learn about Jesse Barton (Alive In Barcelona, PinUp Artist Management) who has gone from engaging with people in Warped Tour lines, to now being heard on the radio, peaking over 1 million plays on Spotify, managing bands, developing artists, and touring the country.
