Artist Marketing Tips
Marketing is becoming ever more important these days. Not just for people trying to sell things (like me) but even for artists trying to get their name out there. The word "marketing" has some negative connotations for most people but if done right it can be beneficial to both parties.

There's a difference between marketing and advertising. Every artist should market themselves on social media. If you provide a service or product -i.e. Gumroad-  it's worth looking into advertising.

In an ideal world, you would just focus on making good content and people would find it, but there's so much noise these days that it's an unlikely scenario.

Does anyone have any tips for marketing? I'll update this post with other people's useful tips.

I'll share what I've learned so far, but I'm by no means a successful marketer so I'm hoping other people can share some good tips.
