Technology is a beautiful thing.

It allows us to complete work and communicate from thousands of miles away, as if we are in the same room.

Even in the past ten years, technology has come a long way from where it was.

Unfortunately, a lot of artists are still doing things the hard way: scheduling social media posts manually, communicating on many different platforms and letting messages slip through the cracks, or making merch sales manually via PayPal.

There are tons of apps out there to help businesses grow and succeed, and there are even quite a few designed specifically for artists.

Listen now to learn about nine types of app every band should have a grasp of, and how you can get started with easy to use digital tools.

What you’ll learn:

  • What areas every artist should invest into to be taken seriously
  • How you can make your social media management 10x easier
  • Why mailing lists are vital to a band’s business, even in 2020
  • How you can reliably sell merch online
  • Why you should consider several different distribution channels before choosing one
  • How to get a branded band email for just $6/month
