Being an independent musician can be hard. You need to balance practicing and performing with your marketing efforts. Without an effective marketing strategy, your music will not take off because no one knows about it. How can you improve your independent musician marketing efforts to increase your listener-base?
The way more and more people are finding new music is through social media.
About 74 percent of all internet users are on social media. This makes sites like Facebook and Twitter the go-to place to connect with your fans.

Social media automation is the perfect tool for independent musicians because it allows you to have a strong and engaging social media presence without all the daily maintenance of doing it manually.
