Marketing a Brand (artist) VS a Product (song)
As a music fan, I've always had a wide range of tastes when it comes to the artists I love. From Lil Wayne to Drake, Michael Jackson, and more, there's no shortage of talent out there that I admire and appreciate. However, as much as I love these artists, I have to admit that I don't always love every single song they put out.
And that's okay. Because as much as I love the artist themselves, what really matters to me is the overall brand they represent. When I listen to Lil Wayne or Drake, for example, I'm not just listening to their music - I'm also buying into their entire persona, their style, and their overall brand image.
And that, ultimately, is what a successful artist and manager should be striving for. The goal shouldn't just be to create music that people like - it should be to create a brand that people love, and that they want to be a part of.
When an artist can create a strong, cohesive brand image that resonates with their fans, they create a loyal fan base that will follow them through thick and thin. Fans will buy concert tickets, merchandise, and even lesser-known albums, simply because they love the artist and what they represent.
Of course, this isn't always an easy feat to accomplish. Creating a strong brand image requires careful planning, strategy, and a deep understanding of what your fans want and expect from you. But when it's done right, the results can be truly magical.
As a music fan, I know that I'll continue to love some artists more than others. I know that I'll like some song s from artists I probably will never to go see live. But at the end of the day, what really matters to me is that I'm buying into a brand that I love and admire. And for artists and managers, that should always be the ultimate goal - to create a brand that people can't help but love, even if they don't love every single song.
