JW Show 145: The Gospel of Ariel Hyatt

Oct 5, 2011 by

Having just been to Ariel Hyatt‘s keynote at PRS House presented by Evil Genius Media, I feel empowered to share their message onto you, not unlike someone who’s just entered a new religion.  It all seems so obvious and easy promoting your own music online… however, I understand that it’s WORK and not all of us have time for much of it.  However, the overarching theme was that you WILL have time for it if you just DO IT.

The best thing I learned was… 1. HAVE A PLAN.  2. DO SOMETHING.  Just doing things is OK, but it’s easy to get discouraged.  Having a plan helps with goal setting and organizing your time.  After that, it’s just work and time.  Do it.  You can.

Ariel’s done a fantastic guest blog post at CD Baby that you should check out, complete with the Musicians’ Social Media Pyramid if you’re a bit lost on how and what to tweet.

We did play lots of great music today on the show – lots of new stuff and a few we met at the event.
