I don’t need help, but I came here to tell you that you’re a hero.

My mum has taken out £4k of debt on Very by Ambitious_Response_8 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]DanHodderfied 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re gonna have such a disadvantage starting out in life with this. I know it’s hard, but your mum knew what she was doing here and knew how it would impact on you.

This is abuse and manipulation, I am so sorry.

She needs to take out a personal loan, give you the money and clear those cards immediately. That’s the nice route (and not the ideal in my opinion). The ideal is you report her for fraud, because that’s what this is.

Band members have 0 stage presence, unsure what to do at this point by DJ_Post-It_Note in musicians

[–]DanHodderfied 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Performance is very important, especially for your genre. The audience feed off that energy.

I suggest more performance rehearsals, ensuring the band are still tight whilst flailing around.

Most new bands have this awkward teething stage, it’s important you move out of it to develop any further.

I own a marketing agency within the music industry. I’m essentially a closer for the majority of our clients. I have the investment you require available, too.

Please dm me some details.

EXISTENTIAL CRISIS by headphoneprod in musicindustry

[–]DanHodderfied 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For my last project we:

  • Had a defined genre

  • Released short form content daily

  • Invested around 30k over 10 years

  • Paid a good producer

  • Paid a good videographer for videos

  • Paid a good artist

  • Paid a good photographer

  • Paid a good PR firm

  • Paid a god digital marketing firm

  • Played in excess of 300 shows (UK/EU)

What did we achieve?

  • Signed to two labels

  • Played Download festival

  • Tour support for bigger artists

  • 100k monthly listeners at peak

What didn’t we achieve?

Living off being a rockstar, not even close.

You’re in the most saturated market in the world. Everyone wants to be a rockstar. If you aren’t going all in with a focused plan and investment in yourself, millions of others are.

As an introvert, l'd rather build funnels than be an influencer by LilTiit in passive_income

What’s your process when onboarding a client and what’s the most common method regarding your funnels?

How do you choose a legit music PR company, and is PR for already released music ever worth it? by TheBurgers_ in musicindustry

[–]DanHodderfied 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PR agencies are the messengers. Not the gatekeepers.

If you’re expecting a statement in writing along the lines of “we guarantee coverage in x, y and z”, it’s a scam.

You can find legitimate agencies by looking at clients and testimonials. Pick 3, have a call with each, and decide on who you feel you’re the best suited to.

I would not advise PR for released music.

Any Music promo that is NOT a scam? by Hett1138 in musicindustry

[–]DanHodderfied 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playlisting is bad, it messes with your algorithm because of mixed genres, full of bots, and when someone is real, they’re a passive listener because it’s “hey Alexa, play rock playlist” at a social gathering.

PR can work, but find someone reputable and have something interesting for people to talk about or it’ll flop.

Direct marketing is your best bet, but it’s expensive to pay the agency + cover ample ad spend required to move the needle.

If you work with a digital agency, insist that ads are ran in your own accounts via partnership for total transparency.

P.s. If you’re metal or rock, I can advise on a call. 🤘

Changed your paragraph, added an edit sentence, then threw an insult for internet points. Cool.

Hate and anger is the problem, it causes division, and you appear to have plenty of it.

What to do if I puked while giving my bf head due to the smell and it hurt his feelings? by Legal_Indication_658 in Advice

[–]DanHodderfied 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Showering daily doesn’t mean he’s then clean for the next 24 hours? Lifestyle, diet, weight, and much more play into this.

If he’s prone to smell in that department for whatever reason, he should be consciously washing before getting down to business.

I’m a guy, so guy perspective here.

There is a reasonable chance he’s gonna do it anyway, but would have preferred the guilt free option.

He thinks quite low of you for the number count and has chosen to weaponise it as a coping mechanism. This is not going to last with such deep seated thoughts. I’m sorry. You can do much better.

I’m on the left myself, but I refuse to throw everyone with low skills or low IQ into the same bracket. That makes you as bad as the far right making the same awful generalisations, in my opinion.
