On Friday I'm headed to St. Louis to hang out with some of the coolest and most influencial people in Indie Music Marketing... Bob Baker, Derek Sivers, Ariel Hyatt, Tom Jackson, Nancy Moran, and John Taglieri. (Bob Baker and Julie Blake in Nashville pictured)If you have even been kickin' around going the Indie Music Buzz Bootcamp I recommend jumpin' off the edge and just do it! I will be there all weekend and available as a mentor! Any questions! Email me directly julie@GetMusicSuccess.com.
I also wanted to mention a killer blog post by David Meerman Scott, author of "The New Rules of Marketing & PR." David tells it like it really is when it comes to marketing now days and he is all about reaching people directly as opposed the old dinosaur ways of mass marketing.
Check out this post...
Meredith Brooks says: Find your authentic voice, become vulnerable, and then put yourself out there!
Here are highlights from his blog post...
"Take Meredith Brooks, a multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated singer and songwriter. Meredith has shared the top ten chart with Bono, toured with Mick Jagger, and had a worldwide hit single with "Bitch." Meredith is a songwriter, musician, music producer, and founder of record label Kissing Booth Music.

Meredith says: "The New Rules of Marketing and PR has inspired me to do what I have coached so many young artists to do, 'Find your authentic voice, become vulnerable, and then put yourself out there.' Since reading this book, I have been excited about truly connecting with people without the filter of all the 'old PR' hype. It has been really energizing for me to speak about things that I really care about, using my real voice."
How cool is that?"
Hope to see ya'll in St. Louis!
