Following the outstanding success of the How To Make Money From Your Music seminars
in 2019, the Music Managers Forum Aotearoa, with thanks to NZ On Air, Recorded
Music NZ, APRA AMCOS, NZ Music Commission and Creative Communities Queenstown
Lakes District and Invercargill City, are returning to Invercargill and
Queenstown with the essential FREE Stage Two seminar, How to Market and Promote Your Music.
How musicians release and promote contemporary music continues to evolve, with
an enduring focus on digital platforms. Over 75% of the New Zealand Music
Industry income is from streaming, but an artist faces stiff competition,
against all other artists, within the realms of the large worldwide digital
stores and platforms. In order to cut through the noise, artists need to be
active across many promotional channels to drive awareness of their
projects. With the majority of artists self-releasing, it is important
that managers and musicians include a strategic selection of options in their
toolkit for the benefit of their independent releases.
This not-to-be-missed seminar will cover avenues of releasing, marketing and
promoting music including publicity, bio’s, press releases, tips for pitching
to media, marketing, digital marketing, social media, playlists and radio
airplay.
Speakers:
Lisa Paris - CEO, The Label
Music Marketing and PR Specialists
Jeff Newton - NZ On Air
Music Promoter - Platforms / Puoro
Kaiwhakahau - Punaha Rorohiko
Rodney Hewson - Artist Manager
The Exponents, Luca George
Cushla Aston - Aston Road
Management, Louis Baker
Chairperson MMF Aotearoa (Moderator)
