What is your biggest frustration when it comes to growing your fanbase? Let me know so that I can step up and help in future videos.
Man I jus don’t know what do to yo keep em coming back and stsying
If I dont spend money on ads I dont grow. I spend 300 a month for Instagram campaigns and typically grow about 1100 followers. Problem is, this doesnt translate to streams always. So ad to DSP is another budget. But, out of that 1000 new followers I gain for the month, only 70-100 will probably see my next post. Ill post something and it gets 40 shares in an hour, you think IG pushes that? Nope, but I thought we were sharing what is doing well organically? Well, that cant be true. They just want my dollars. So, at this point, running ads for eyes on impression to my profile is kinda pointless. I mean I have to run a retarget ad set just in hoping new fans will see it. Meanwhile, other individuals doing less quality than I am get organic traffic because they never ran ads. I think thats what my problem is, i started after the free traffic phase died out and I ran ads immediately therefore im just stuck in this "customer" box. I rather run it to Spotify and Apple at this point, at least I know it can trigger an algorithmic response on spotifys ends.
Our biggest frustration has to be content ideas. As you know, we overthink quite a lot.
Then, would be what to write in the caption. You've covered that, tho.
The frustration really comes from turning purpose driven content into a consistent habit. In the beginning I can say that my purpose is to inspire people or whatever but over time after posting content every day or every other day that purpose seems lost and instead replaced with creating content for the sake of creating content. That stuff never hits imo because it’s easy to see through and makes it look like you’re just trying to sell something instead of actually desiring to give value to people (which is kinda true in that case). I guess I just need to remind myself that asking “how do I get attention?” is the wrong question, and I should be asking “how can I provide value?” instead.
"The Churn" is something I didn't understand until I had a Patreon. People come and people go, its just part of business and its not personal.
2 things that could make my content better: if i had an Editor & if i stopped trying to make it perfect
People will like my music or not . I’m not changing for anyone . I will die with this belief as a success or failure 🎉
2 things:
better music fitting aestethic shots
-lighting
-performance + position
communicate emotion/feeling to audience
-describe your ''product''
Are you a wizard or something. I was just thinking almost every part of your video and you suddenly uploaded video of it. Thanks Adam for your insights! :)
Yes I am Adamar Ivydore! 😂
Thank you for uploading this!
This video's a life saver, thanks! Just what I'm looking for right now
I gain new energy from refining my understanding of what it is that you’re talking about. A Genius you are . 🧠
This was really good bro 💯🔥‼️
😃Thanks for info!
Appreciate you did show up, thanks for the gems. 🙏🏻 Also really interested in a full length trump impression 😂
Adam please do a video for just creating content. I have 0 EXP in this and i know its the way to grow.
The impression was on point😂😂😂
repetition with variation makes better practice and better results
facts
Consistency and would make my content better can't think of another one...
Looking at Picasso content at the content building. I used to love songs, now I engage with content. This is dystopian art. And mocking new tools to create art as "nonsense". Artists > Influencers
This the first video I watched when I woke up
Good Morning!!
started out posting music recently, got like 3 views on first video, and 0 on other ones, any advice?
Most important thing here: use that Trump impression more
😂
I vary from doing chill acoustic music, to metal guitar solos, and metal vocal videos. So, I tend to send people away at a pretty good rate lol. They get sucked in from an acoustic video, then see something heavier I do, and go... no... what? why am I following him?
i posted about 40 times on tiktok and all my 40 posts got lexactly around 300 plays... No matter what i do or post
I had the same thing haha, but then one of mine got 2 million. Hard truth but tbh the content probably just sucks
@@marcs1024 i do the exact same content as someone Else who gets success with it (i just do my own version) I mean i have 15k subs on yt. Ive been doing content for many years so i kinda know What’s good quality and not. I think its just shadowbanned but idk
@@marcs10242 mil? What'd you do differently?
You have to BILLd the SKILLZ ;-)
😂
do you believe the quality of the production in music matters? or do people seriously only care bout what youre social media looks like? i have so many music connections that i could set up my career but i have almost no real growth on social media whatsoever i can prove i have something there, getting 1k or 5k on short clips and reels, without really put effort or having consistency. but at the end of the day dont we just want a gig to make money and have more gigs open up? do you really aim for immediate fame and wealth and getting to know every famous person and getting interview after interview because that just seems obnoxious. i just want to make songs that last forever and i cant stop playing on repeat literally my one and only goal, in this age of AI who cares who you work with and people been sampling for ages. just make the song great and meaningful. i mean everyone at the top uses autotune anyways, rich people pay producers to make one song that can make them famous in a night. i just want to have that one song becomes the anthem for humans being as a species, captures everything at once and can be felt by everyone. thats how we end wars. remind them that when you hurt the "other' youre only hurting yourself. and if you had an ounce of intelligent or self awareness then you wouldnt.
The quality of production and a strong social media presence both matter. It's about finding a balance. Making music that's meaningful is crucial, but promoting it through social media helps you reach a wider audience. Immediate fame and wealth aren't everyone's goal, but making impactful music is. Keep making music that matters to you, and when the time is right, your message may reach the hearts of many.
Love Trump's impression!
fo sho. Northern CAL. 209🍄🥦
The Donald Trump impression got me 😆😆😆
Hi adam. I am in a problem. I am a 17-year-old Indian brought up in germany. I want to make my presence internationally as I will make music in English. I would probably take a fake name. My problem is that, India does not have TikTok. What it means is that taste of people on tiktok is far different than IG reels (tiktok's counterpart in India). Now I can do my work on tiktok but Indian audience Loves to see international artist to interact on Indian content. And I don't know if Indian audience qualifies as monetizable audience. But one thing is for sure. Serving Indian audience will give huge fan following which is most likely poor financially. what should i do? Should I focus on producing content for indian audience which is VERY HARD to monetize OR should i focus on tiktok and try to to become successful over there?? OR should i make different content for both platforms?
Embrace your unique background as your secret weapon. Experiment with content that connects with both Indian and global audiences. In the long run, building a dedicated fanbase will pay off, and there are multiple ways to turn your passion into profit. Be realistic that this will be a long road coming from India but it is possible, be ready to adapt your approach, and always try to enjoy the incredible journey ahead!
FYI Lil Nas X went on tour with only one song 😂
that's a really good Trump impression
Thank you! 🙏🏼
the trump impression made me like the video 🤣
😂
I love your Trump impression. 😂
P r o m o S M ☺️
I'm glad you did Trump. Not a bad impersonation.
Thank you!
My Facebook account was hacked last year. FB cancelled my account so had to start a new one. It was linked to my instagram and I’m noticing I’m not getting more than a few likes by friends now. Should I just start over?
